The story behind the bottle.
Oud by Aaron Terence Hughes is a composition that doesn’t fade but instead gets stronger and more potent as you heat up, capturing the mysterious and sexual essence of the night. The fragrance opens with an unexpected leather note that cuts through the sweet rose absolute in the heart, creating a fierce contradiction. As it settles into its base notes of agarwood (Oud), patchouli, musk, and animalic accords, Oud becomes a seductive aphrodisiac scent that leaves a lasting impression.
Apply this fragrance sparingly at first — it blooms on skin over time and its animalic notes can be potent. A single spritz will carry you through the evening as Oud warms up to your body heat, intensifying its charm.
