The Story
Sandal Aoud is a rich, woody fragrance that pairs creamy sandalwood with smoky oud. It opens with a bright burst of bergamot and saffron, then settles into a warm, resinous heart of rose and patchouli. The base is a deep blend of sandalwood, oud, and vanilla that lasts for hours. This is a scent for those who appreciate bold, luxurious woods.
