The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Oud Wasat by Tiziana Terenzi, launched in 2016 and crafted by Paolo Terenzi, is an Oriental Woody fragrance that marries the earthy warmth of oud with fresh, aromatic notes. The composition opens with a burst of bergamot, grapefruit, and cardamom before settling into a heart of rose, geranium, and incense. The base layers of cedar, sandalwood, patchouli, and musk create an enveloping warmth that feels both intimate and expansive.

How to wear it

Apply Oud Wasat in light layers — it has a strong presence from the base notes that bloom over time. It's best worn close to skin for an immersive experience rather than projecting into a room.
