Top Notes: Bergamot, Black Pepper
Heart Notes: Incense, Agarwood (Oud)
Base Notes: Leather, Amber, Patchouli
The opening crackles with bergamot and pepper, immediately catching attention. The heart dives deep into smoky incense and oud, creating a mysterious middle. Then the base settles into rich leather, warm amber and patchouli—leaving a lingering trail of elegance and intensity. Midnight Oud truly shines in evening wear, formal events, and colder seasons. The smoky-woody profile is perfect for autumn and winter nights when you want presence and sophistication.
💡 Pro Tip: 2 sprays on pulse points suffice—let the scent be your aura, not a cloud. Layer gently with unscented lotion for extended wear.
