Saffron and peach open over a rose and jasmine heart before oud takes the lead. Vanilla, patchouli and musk warm the base into a floral-sweet woody oud that feels rich and rounded.

The Dry Warmth
Warm enough to be felt. Dry enough to mean it.
There is warmth here but nothing soft about it. It arrives without apology and stays without asking. Substance over comfort, every time.

Oud Blanc sits mid-range on texture, which for a fragrance with thin wear data reflects an absence of reports rather than a measured middle. That is 82nd percentile for texture across 5,322 scored fragrances.
Oud Blanc keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 29th percentile for sweetness across 5,322 scored fragrances.
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.
