The story behind the bottle.
Opus XIII Silver Oud by Amouage, launched in 2021 and crafted by perfumer Cécile Zarokian, is an Oriental Woody fragrance that marries the rich warmth of oud with earthy undertones. The composition begins with cypriol oil and patchouli, creating a grounding effect that gives way to the smoky depth of agarwood. Birch and guaiac wood add a balsamic touch, while castoreum and ambrarome lend an enveloping leather quality. This fragrance is designed for those who appreciate complexity and subtlety, with longevity that feels eternal and sillage that fills a room without overpowering.
Apply sparingly — Opus XIII Silver Oud's strong sillage means that even a light spritz will project confidently. The fragrance evolves slowly over time, so give it an hour to fully settle into your skin before reapplying if needed.
