Oud or Agarwood, is the most precious and expensive wood used in perfumery. Oud is called “liquid gold” in the Arab world as it is such a rare commodity. Oud is worn by sultans, pharaohs and used for millennia. Oud perfumes have a history that is deeply entwined with incense, ceremony and fragrance. Oud has a complex scent that is strongly redolent of dense honey, it can be animalic, smell like green grass, dark woods and leather.
