Wabisabi by The House of Oud is a daring composition that balances the unexpected freshness of wasabi against lush florals and warm vanilla. Created by perfumer Cristian Calabro in 2023, it opens with a surprising burst of lime and wasabi, creating an initial tension that's both invigorating and intriguing. As the heart unfolds, bergamot and jasmine sambac introduce a soft floral sweetness, while elemi resin adds an aromatic depth. The base notes of vanilla and musk ground this scent, making it feel both modern and lasting.
