The Story
Khus Oudh Wood is a bold, earthy fragrance that pairs the smoky richness of oud with the green, rooty depth of khus (vetiver). It opens with a sharp, medicinal burst of oud and spicy saffron, then settles into a woody, leathery heart. The base is a long-lasting blend of amber, musk, and sandalwood that feels both ancient and modern. This is a scent for those who appreciate the raw, untamed side of perfumery.
