The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2016, Oud Sublime by Nicolai Parfumeur Créateur is a woody-oriental fragrance created by Patricia de Nicolai. The composition opens with the warm spice of coriander and davana, leading into a heart that features ambrette (musk mallow) and artemisia. At its core lies Cambodian oud, which provides a rich and smoky depth, complemented by notes of rose, cypriol oil, patchouli, and atlas cedar. The base layers of incense, styrax, castoreum, amber, and musk add an animalic warmth that grounds the entire composition in luxurious complexity.
Oud Sublime is best applied in small amounts due to its concentrated parfum formula. The smoky oud notes take time to unfold, so allow it to settle on your skin for at least an hour before reapplying if needed. It pairs well with cooler weather and intimate settings where the scent can be fully appreciated close up.
