The Story
Avon Odyssey White Oud is a modern take on the classic oud accord, blending creamy white florals with a smooth, woody base. It opens with a burst of fresh bergamot and pink pepper, then settles into a heart of saffron and white iris. The dry-down is a warm, inviting mix of white oud, sandalwood, and musk. It's an accessible entry point into the world of oud for those who find traditional oud too heavy.
