BDK Parfums Oud Paradisio Absolu De Parfum (Tester)

Description

A contrast-driven oud from BDK's new Collection Studio. Composed by Jordi Fernández and launched in 2026, Oud Paradisio pairs a sweet, almost dessert-like pineapple-and-saffron opening with a rich Bulgarian and Turkish rose heart, before settling into real Thai agarwood and cocoa. Radiant and floral on one side, dark and animalic on the other.

Note on this breakdown: this is a brand-new 2026 launch, so these percentages are derived directly from counting each verified note's family share of the fragrance pyramid below — treat them as a close approximation, not a lab measurement.

Translation: a sweet-floral opening giving way to a genuinely oud-forward, incense-laced base — this one has real Thai agarwood, not a synthetic stand-in.

FAQ

Is there real oud in this fragrance? Yes — genuine Thai agarwood sits in the base alongside cocoa and incense.

Is Oud Paradisio for men or women? It's unisex.

What does "Absolu de Parfum" mean? It's BDK's highest concentration format — 44% for this fragrance — stronger and longer-lasting than a standard Eau de Parfum.

How is this different from Stellar Silk and Silver Ceremony? All three are part of BDK's 2026 Collection Studio, but each explores a different material and concentration — Oud Paradisio centers on rose and agarwood, Stellar Silk on powdery vanilla, and Silver Ceremony on citrus and cedar.
