Perfect Oud
by Mizensir
Perfect Oud by Mizensir presents a refined, wearable interpretation of oud that balances aromatic freshness with subtle woody depth. It opens with a crisp, citrusy bergamot and coriander, delivering a clean, slightly green and herbal top note that lingers for a short while before yielding to an airy, powder-dusted core of rose, iris, and cedar. The oud here is not animalic or medicinal; instead, it feels smooth, resinous, and softly smoky—akin to a mechanic's workshop or a deep, whispering leather. As it dries down, the fragrance transitions into a soft, intimate scent that clings to the skin with moderate sillage, making it suitable for office wear, evening outings, or casual get-togethers. Longevity is moderate to long, with noticeable wear beyond 8 hours, and the scent remains balanced and non-intrusive. The overall impression is one of elegant simplicity—clean, modern, and unisex, leaning neither strongly feminine nor masculine.
