Oud, one of the most precious ingredients in the world. An oil that, when of good quality, is worth its weight in gold. This rare raw material is extracted from the resin of Aquilaria trees, also known as agarwood trees. Its fragrance is diverse and multifaceted. It is of such inimitable and special beauty that legends have been spun around it.
“Oud de Robert Piguet” marked the beginning of a story that continues with “Oud Délice” and “Oud Divin.” Once again, in-house perfumer Aurélien Guichard has ventured into this sublime realm and created two irresistible masterpieces.
From the very beginning, “Oud Délice” shows us how deliciously oud can be interpreted: caramelized ambergris, delicately spicy and warm, combines with Provençal honey of an elegant sweetness, with hints of lavender and heather. At its heart, the fragrance carries the smoky, balsamic, woody oud that already came to the fore in “Oud de Robert Piguet.” This wonderful selection is refined by fig milk, which reveals exotic facets reminiscent of coconut. Oud Délice is rounded off by smoky, salty vetiver grass and patchouli, whose cocoa powder notes delightfully underscore the gourmand character of the fragrance.
It is not without reason that ambrosia is known as the food of the gods: “Oud Délice” is like a gift from heaven and, as one of the rare gourmand oud fragrances, is a true rarity.
