Cuir Aoud
EDPUnisex
The Story
Cuir Aoud is a bold, leathery oud that feels like a well-worn leather jacket. The opening is a sharp blast of saffron and aldehydes, but it quickly settles into a rich, smoky heart of leather and rose. The base is a deep, animalic blend of oud, patchouli, and musk that lasts for hours. It's a confident, unapologetic scent for those who love dark, complex fragrances.
