The Story
Oud Zen is a contemplative, meditative take on oud from Russian Adam. It opens with a bright burst of citrus and saffron, then settles into a heart of rose and spices. The base is a rich, smoky blend of Cambodian oud, sandalwood, and musk. This is not a loud, barnyard oud—it's smooth, refined, and deeply calming.
