Near-perfect oud fragrance

After wearing this three times, I can conclude that it's probably my favorite straight-up oud fragrance I've tried so far. Its opening doesn't contain any stink or barnyardy notes - the head notes of the oud are masterfully offset by a bittersweet rose note. It's mercifully not powdery and jammy like rose accords in other oud fragrances (looking at you Oud Satin Mood Eau de Parfum and Ombre Nomade), and the bitter orange and coffee give it depth.

Of course, the rose note is just the prelude to the main act. This fragrance contains three varieties of oud: Kinam and Zozan from China, and Khao Yi from Thailand. Not being an expert in oud varieties, I can't explain how each contributes to the overall oud note, but the end result is fabulous. Woody, earthy, smoky, and slightly medicinal. The coffee and vanilla stay in the background after the rose note has faded and provide lift and interplay with the oud, further enhancing the experience.

I can say with confidence that Bortnikoff is well and truly back to its oud roots with these new releases. Best perfume yet of 2024 for me.

A Refined and Sublime Oud

Oud Kinam by Bortnikoff is a celebration of oud in its most sophisticated and dry form, featuring precious Chinese and Thai ouds. The balance is flawless: the intensity of the oud blends beautifully with an orange and coffee accord that is simply sublime.

The opening is bright and citrusy, but it quickly transforms into a deep and resinous composition with a dry character that highlights the exceptional quality of the raw materials. The coffee note adds warmth and a subtle gourmand touch, perfectly balancing the austerity of the oud.

For those seeking a complex fragrance, rich in nuances and truly memorable, Oud Kinam is an unmissable masterpiece.

Woody, unsweet, masculine

Oud Kinam starts off with bitter orange and bergamot. Then there's a really beautiful coffee note, like ground coffee not a latte, not sweet. I also get a hint of citrusy rose, and deep earthy woody slightly mentholy oud. The vanilla is barely there. Oud Kinam is very nice, very woody and masculine. Not challenging, but neither is it my favorite type of oud. I think I prefer Lao oud as well as some of Bortnikoff's other ouds with sweeter florals and chocolate and spicy notes.

Chinese beast

And here Dmitry has churned out a real treat.
Immediately a hint of citric bergamot that lasts an instant and then immediately His Majesty the Chinese oud.
Woody, dry, aromatic with its typical dark, aged scent, accompanied by a slightly dusty rose and blunted by a touch of vanilla. The scent is very tenacious and even after washing your hands several times, it lingers on.
For lovers of non-skunk oud, it is a gem. I already love it.
In my opinion, 2 steps above the other 2 launched together (Malinau and Hindi).

'Oud Rose Vanilla

Oud Kinam from Thailand-based Bortnikoff Niche/Indie Haute Luxury Perfumery House is a Unisex Oriental Citrus 'Oud Woody Floral Vanilla Perfume. This is a brand new fragrance which has launched at the end of 2024; and the perfumer who signs this fragrance is the Russian Dmitry Bortinikov. Centered on the Chinese 'Oud Kinam (also called Kyara in Japan), where medicinal woody green, slightly spicy citrus and earthy bitter camphor facets. A dark green and subtly smoky, woody and medicinal natural oud that conveys sophistication and elegance. The other protagonist here is a fleshy, fruity Afghan rose grown in old poppy fields. An extremely photorealistic 'Oud & Rose. It is not a masterpiece and is not even among the best perfumes ever made by Bortinikov, but it is a great perfume of vanilla pink 'oud with very high quality ingredients.

An ephemeral opening with bergamot and the bitterness of a sweet and sour orange give a slightly crisp and clean exit, while quickly entering the center of this composition comes a complex blend of a delicious, exotic and palatable Afghan rose reminding me of the acidic fruity green freshness of a delicious bunch of red fruits blending with the toasted sweetness of a duet of dark vanillas and a fine mist of roasted coffee adding more flavor to perfume. Luckily, a rich blend of Chinese ouds removes any possibility of the fragrance flirting with gourmand. With its rich and opulent infusion of 'ouds and roses, this fragrance transcends traditional boundaries, offering a harmonious fusion of enchanting floral and woody tones. Delicious fragrance with a moderate to higher performance.
