The Story
Orange Aoud is a bold and beautiful contrast between bright, juicy orange and deep, smoky oud. It opens with a burst of fresh citrus that quickly gives way to a rich, leathery heart. The base is all about the oud—earthy, woody, and slightly animalic. This is a fragrance that commands attention without being overwhelming.
