Tropical intensity wrapped in luxury. Oud Maracujá by Maison Crivelli is a bold, seductive Extrait de Parfum where vibrant passionfruit, luminous Turkish rose and saffron meet precious oud, rich leather, glowing amber and creamy vanilla. Exotic sophistication with irresistible presence, composed by perfumer Jordi Fernandez.

The Story

The house frames Oud Maracujá as a passion fruit tasting in remote oud wood forests: the richness of oud set against bright, exotic fruit, in a thirst-quenching fruity oud that is unisex and contemporary in design. Vibrant passionfruit wrapped around refined oud, rather than buried by it, makes it one of the most unusual openings in modern perfumery.

How It Smells

Opening
Bold and exotic: a radiant burst of passionfruit and saffron over Turkish rose, juicy, tart and sparkling, like fresh tropical fruit meeting warm spice and velvet petals.

Heart
Darker and richer as oud, benzoin and Indonesian patchouli leaf rise through the fruity brightness, a luxurious contrast between tropical sweetness and smoky woody depth.

Dry Down
Warm and sensual, a creamy resinous base of leather, akigalawood, amber vanilla and labdanum with a glowing sweetness.

An olfactory journey into Arabian luxury. Liwa by Widian sets golden saffron, luminous jasmine and bergamot over warm amber wood, then settles into sandalwood, patchouli, vetiver and smoky oud incense. Rich, elegant and deeply captivating, it is boldly refined.

The Story

Liwa is an extrait de parfum from Widian, the Abu Dhabi-based house that builds its perfumes around the oud, amber, incense and rare flowers of the Arabian world. It has a regal Middle Eastern character, but one that is refined and modern rather than overpowering.

Heart
Amber wood, white flowers and geranium form a warm, elegant heart, silky and opulent, balancing floral softness with glowing amber richness.

Dry Down

The timeless sophistication of an iconic city. London by Widian pairs dark oud wood, violet and cypress with succulent raspberry, supple leather, warm amber and vanilla. Bold, refined and unforgettable, it is powerful elegance with modern allure.

Polished oud, spiced and softened by creamy woods. Carved Oud by Thameen London is a sophisticated, modern oud extrait built around a rare South Indian oud. It opens with cardamom, pink pepper, cypress and cypriol, deepens into cedarwood, patchouli, iris and oud, and finishes in a smooth base of vetiver, amber, musk, sandalwood and vanilla.

The Story

Carved Oud is inspired by the artistry of ancient temple carvings and regal adornment, and by an Indian ritual of adorning a woman with perfumes and jewels in sixteen stages. The South Indian oud at its center is meant to recall the incense burned in Indian temples, lending the composition a sacred, ceremonial atmosphere.

How It Smells

Opening
Spicy and aromatic, with cardamom and pink pepper adding warmth without harshness over cypress and smoky cypriol.

Heart
The oud is polished and wearable, blended seamlessly with cedarwood, patchouli and iris rather than turning animalic or overpowering.

Dry Down
Creamy sandalwood, amber, vanilla and musk, grounded by vetiver and labdanum, leave a soft, luxurious trail of exceptional depth. Elegant and versatile, for those who want oud with sophistication rather than heaviness.

The Story

Baniyas is an extrait de parfum from Widian's Velvet collection, an aromatic, fresh-spicy and woody scent that is fresh yet substantial, with an elegant calm from the first spray.

Dry Down
Warm, smooth and addictive. Patchouli, sandalwood, vetiver and evernyl create a mossy-woody base with soft sweetness, quietly powerful rather than loud.

A caravan of dried fruit, incense and oud crossing an endless desert. Zoologist Camel pairs rose and jasmine-infused dried fruits and sweet palm date with frankincense, myrrh, cinnamon and amber, then settles into oud, sandalwood and vanilla. Perfumer Christian Carbonnel composed it for Zoologist Perfumes in 2017.

The Story

On a trek through an unforgiving desert, starting point and destination are indistinguishable. Terracotta-hued dunes twist and writhe, their shapes ever shifting, and only the merciless sun and aloof constellations can be trusted to point the way. Weighed down by treasures, some tempting the eyes with their glittering sheen, others enticing the taste buds with exotic aromas, the camel plods toward a far-off marketplace. Water is a dream for now, the taste of sweet dates a distant memory. In Zoologist Camel, beautiful aromas of rose and jasmine-infused, succulent dried fruits are joined along the way by an alluring blend of incense, myrrh, amber and cinnamon, then met by animalistic musks and authentic oud in a rich tapestry. This sensual caravan of fragrance carries you along on the camel's long, lonely journey across the ageless desert.

How It Smells

Opening
Sticky dried fruits and palm date, glossed with rose and a thread of frankincense.

Heart
Myrrh, incense, amber and cinnamon warm the middle, with jasmine, orange blossom and cedar adding floral and woody lift.

Dry Down
Oud, sandalwood, tonka bean, vanilla and vetiver sit over musks and a civet accent for a deep, resinous finish.

Star density, brought to your skin. Mendittorosa Sirio is one of the most elegant and luminous creations of the Talismans Collection, an Extrait de Parfum of rhubarb, apple, rose, peony and plum over guaiac, cashmeran, oud, vanilla and amber wood. Radiant, airy and celestial, it was composed by perfumer Amélie Bourgeois of Flair Paris, with concept and creative design by Stefania Squeglia.

The Story

Sirio is inspired by Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky, and represents light, intuition, spiritual energy and cosmic guidance. The house frames it as a journey from Earth to a paradise, carried by the ambrosial booziness of forbidden fruits; white musk makes the opening feel fuller, and a woody-gourmand base extends its mysterious, carnal essence. Unlike some of the darker Mendittorosa creations, it keeps the deep artistic soul the house is known for.

How It Smells

Opening
Bright, slightly tart rhubarb and apple with a spicy warmth, filled out by white musk.

Heart
Rose, peony and plum bring soft, juicy florals and a boozy fruit sweetness.

Dry Down
Smooth woods and glowing resins from guaiac, cashmeran, oud, vanilla and amber wood: luminous rather than smoky, radiant rather than heavy.

Rosso I is a luxurious and captivating extrait de parfum where majestic Damask rose meets vibrant pink pepper and deep sensual oud.

Bold, elegant, and intensely refined, Rosso I is for those who appreciate statement-making niche perfumery and timeless sophistication.

How It Smells

It opens with bright pink pepper, giving a sparkling spicy freshness. Quickly, a rich Damask rose takes center stage—velvety, romantic, and slightly dark.

Messengers of spring arrive, bearing gifts that bring smiles to faces dulled by winter’s chill. The joyous song of the nightingale accompanies vibrant fuchsia-colored aromas of Japanese plum blossoms as they spread, infusing the tepid air. It marks a fleeting moment of emotional awaking: to some a time for celebration and fresh starts; to others, a countdown to a departure for unknown horizons.

Zoologist captures the onset of the Japanese spring through Nightingale, a pink floral chypre that will melt your heart. It opens with rich scents of saffron and rosy, powdery, tart Japanese plum blossoms, enveloping the core of the perfume like a luxurious silk kimono. Deep, warm aromas of oud, patchouli, moss, incense and ambergris seek to escape, seeping from the ruddy petals, to create a composition that’s complex and at the same time, simply desirable.

Wintry Siberian forest, animal desire and a halo of oud. Zoologist Musk Deer layers cardamom, calamus and rose over sambac jasmine, patchouli and cedar, then ambrette, orris, Laotian oud and Australian sandalwood. Perfumer Pascal Gaurin composed it for Zoologist Perfumes in 2020.

The Story

Brutal winter winds buffet the Siberian forest. The tall trees long for summer's return, short though it may be, but at the base of several bare trunks invisible love notes call to a would-be mate: fragrant missives left by the male musk deer. Long fangs give the buck a demonic appearance, yet they too play a role in the mating ritual, serving as weapons in the tussle with rivals for a doe's love. The dream of a mate sustains the lonely deer as it searches out scraps of lichen and moss among cold, barren roots. For centuries musk deer have been hunted to near extinction, coveted for their fragrant musk pods. Zoologist respects this majestic creature, recreating the distinctive scent through a mixture of synthetic musks and natural oud and florals. The result evokes the animal desire of a lusty musk deer amid the alluring chill of a wintry forest, all captured without a hint of menace.

How It Smells

Opening
Cardamom and calamus oil give a cool, aromatic, slightly bitter start, softened by rose.

Heart
Sambac jasmine, patchouli, Atlas cedar and labdanum build a warm, resinous floral-woody centre.

Dry Down
Ambrette and orris bring a powdery musk, resting on Laotian oud and Australian sandalwood.
