The story behind the bottle.
Oud Alshain by Tiziana Terenzi was launched in 2016 and crafted by Paolo Terenzi. This Oriental Woody fragrance opens with the freshness of neroli and osmanthus, creating a delicate floral bouquet that contrasts beautifully with the rich warmth of rose and oud. The heart is anchored by orris and cedar, adding depth and earthiness before settling into a powdery musky base with notes of patchouli and amber. The inclusion of animalic notes adds an intriguing layer of complexity, making this scent both intimate and alluring.
One or two sprays are sufficient to capture the essence of Oud Alshain. The fragrance blooms quickly, so avoid layering too heavily. It pairs well with cooler evenings when you want a scent that is both warm and subtle.
