These describe how the fragrance is generally reported to behave. Skin chemistry, weather and how much you apply all change it, so your own experience may differ.

Modelled profile

Despite the name, oud stays quiet here; the real story is a peppery, caraway-and-sage spiced heart over cedar, leather and iris. Amber and vanilla soften the base while the composition keeps a dense, textured aromatic-fougere feel.

How Niche Oud smells, measured

Riskmid-range0.40

Sweetnessdry0.20

Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin. Where wear reports are thin, those scores rest near the middle by design, so a mid-range reading here is a statement about the evidence as much as about the scent. Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
