Aoud Sense by Montale was launched in 2015 and crafted by Pierre Montale. This fragrance juxtaposes the brightness of citrus with the richness of oud, creating a tension that is both intriguing and alluring. The opening notes of orange and mandarin orange are vibrant and fresh, cutting through the spicy warmth of black pepper and cloves before settling into an aromatic base of agarwood (oud), Bulgarian rose, and Haitian vetiver. This composition reads as a modern take on classic elegance — crisp yet complex.

Application Tips
Aoud Sense has a strong presence from its oud base, so one or two sprays are sufficient. The freshness of the top notes fades quickly, but the warm and rich heart and base notes linger for hours. It's best suited for evening wear when you want a scent that evolves throughout the night.
