Harrods Aoud

Harrods Aoud opens with a sharp, almost herbal bite—artemisia and bright citrus crackle against a whisper of aldehydes—before Rose de Mai softens the gesture into something floral and intimate. The base unfolds slowly: warm sandalwood and guaiac wood anchor a constellation of resins—olibanum, elemi, myrrh—while oud weaves through cinnamon and patchouli with smoky, animalic grace. Musk and ambrette add skin-like warmth; benzoin and vanilla round the edges into creamy amber. Complex, unflinching, layered.
