The Story
Oud (China) X is a bold, smoky oud that draws inspiration from Chinese incense traditions. The opening is a sharp blast of black pepper and cumin, which quickly gives way to a rich, leathery oud heart. The base is a deep, resinous blend of labdanum and patchouli, with a touch of vanilla for sweetness. This is a fragrance for those who appreciate the darker, more complex side of oud.
