About
Honey Oud by Floris is a Oriental Woody fragrance for women and men. Honey Oud was launched in 2014. Top notes are Honey and Bergamot; middle notes are Agarwood (Oud), Rose and Patchouli; base notes are Agarwood (Oud), Amber, Vanilla, Labdanum and Musk. Two new oriental-woody perfumes which belong to the Floris London Private Collection and were created especially for Harrods will be presented on July 30, 2014. The new fragrances HONEY OUD and LEATHER OUD are based on precious aromas of oud wood, reinterpreted in two ways—with honey and leather."Honey Oud opens with a gourmand accord of English honey and vanilla which combine to add a velvet softness to the Oud oil and accentuate the rose at the heart of this complex fragrance. The exclusive fragrance is created with Oud oil from a certified sustainable source of agarwood. This oil is among the most expensive in the perfumer’s palette - with deep qualities found in no other oil. It is an opulent, deep sensual note that combines beautifully with rose and sandalwood." The fragrance is available as 100 ml Eau de Parfum.
