Midnight Oud is a bold, smoky, and deeply oriental-woody fragrance that captures the essence of darkness and mystery. It opens with bright bergamot, aromatic oregano, and a pinch of pepper, then moves into a rich heart of incense, opoponax, leather, and patchouli. The base settles into a sensual blend of oud, amber, labdanum, and warm woods. This is a fragrance for the confident, the enigmatic — for moments when you want to leave a lasting, smoky impression.
Top Notes: Bergamot, Oregano, Pepper
Heart Notes: Incense, Opoponax, Labdanum, Amber
Base Notes: Agarwood (Oud), Leather, Sandalwood, Patchouli
This fragrance works best for evening wear, formal settings, or cool-weather outings. The rich smoky-oud profile gives it real presence, making it ideal for autumn or winter nights.
💡 Pro Tip: Spray on pulse points (wrists, chest) and layer lightly over unscented lotion to prolong the trail.
