The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2006 by Montale and crafted by Pierre Montale, Aoud Cuir d’Arabie is a fragrance that captures the essence of rich leather and smoky oud. The composition opens with an intense animalic aroma, seamlessly transitioning into the warmth of tobacco and the depth of leathery accords. This scent is neither shy nor subtle; it's bold and enveloping, designed to make a statement.

How to wear it

Apply Aoud Cuir d’Arabie in light, even sprays. The smoky and animalic notes project strongly, so a little goes a long way. Best for evenings or cooler weather when its rich depth can be fully appreciated.
