The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Eternal Oud by By Kilian was launched in 2014 and crafted by the renowned perfumer Alberto Morillas. This unisex fragrance is a bold Oriental composition that centers on oud, a deeply rich and woody note. The scent opens with a warm spicy accord that contrasts beautifully against the metallic notes, creating an almost industrial yet luxurious feel. As it develops, rose and leather emerge to add layers of complexity and warmth, making Eternal Oud both intimate and grand.

How to wear it

Given its enormous sillage and long-lasting nature, one generous spray is enough to make a statement. This fragrance is best experienced close to skin rather than from across a room, so apply it to pulse points for maximum impact.
