Les Eaux Primordiales Oud Supermassive Extrait

Description

Les Eaux Primordiales Oud Supermassive Extrait reimagines oud without reverence for tradition. Perfumers Arnaud Poulain and Julien Rasquinet frame real oud in a dialogue between Eastern and European influences, aiming for a less smoky, less animalic style that keeps its depth. Mandarin, bergamot and cardamom open it, peach, osmanthus and passionfruit bring a solar, fruity-floral heart, and oud, tobacco, leather and olibanum ground the base.

Scent Character

• Oud: genuine agarwood, less smoky than classic ouds
• Fruity & Floral: peach, passionfruit and osmanthus
• Leather & Tobacco: the dark, sensual base
• Citrus & Spicy: mandarin, bergamot and cardamom

Translation: a bright, juicy fruit-and-flower opening that dries down into smooth oud, leather, tobacco and incense.

Fragrance Pyramid

Performance

Wearers describe exceptional longevity, with the scent lasting for days on fabric. Reviews are mixed on the drydown: some enjoy the fruity opening and stamina, while others find the later stage strange or less refined. Expect very long wear and strong projection at first, so start with one or two sprays.

Best Occasions & Season

Best in fall and winter, for evenings, nights out and leisure time. The fruity brightness makes it easier to wear than a traditional oud on mild days, but it is still a rich extrait.
