Launched in 2010, Aoud 3 by M. Micallef is a Woody Spicy fragrance for men crafted by Jean-Claude Astier. The composition centers around oud, creating an intense and rich core that’s balanced with fresh and warm spicy accords like cinnamon. This blend of spices adds depth without overpowering the richness of the oud. Aoud 3 also incorporates vanilla and fruity notes, which bring a sweet warmth to the overall fragrance.

Application Tips
Apply Aoud 3 to pulse points; it takes about an hour for the base notes to fully integrate. The spicy accords are most noticeable initially but give way to the deeper oud and vanilla as the day progresses.

The story behind the bottle.
The quiet intensity of an after-dinner conversation in a dimly lit study, where the scent of warm spices and rich woods fills the air.
