The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2013 by Maison Francis Kurkdjian, Oud Cashmere Mood is a composition that blends the rich warmth of oud with the softness of vanilla and musk, creating an enveloping aroma. The fragrance opens with a balsamic note, which adds depth to the overall scent before settling into a warm spicy heart. This is where the oud comes into play, adding a distinctively earthy and woody character that contrasts beautifully with the creamy vanilla base. Francis Kurkdjian’s expert hand ensures this unisex creation strikes a balance between opulence and comfort.
Apply one or two sprays directly on your pulse points. The warm spicy and oud accords will develop over time, so it’s best not to layer too heavily initially. This fragrance is particularly suited for evenings when you want to feel enveloped in warmth and comfort.
