Autumn forest medicine

The way this fragrance unfolds while remaining true to its character is remarkable. Quite quickly, a beautiful fragrance structure is constructed here, which you can enjoy quite carefree. I don't perceive anything of extreme-animalic or even unpleasant notes. On the other hand, Oud Ispahan is for me a soft and sensual autumn fragrance, on which it is worth getting involved.

The prelude is soothingly balsamic and medicinal. A natural chord of palatable rose and ethereal wood makes you think of forest-warm healing earth. Underpinned by dull, dusty patchouli, a strong, rainy forest atmosphere is created. However, this remains floral-clean, not to say soapy. A touch of creamy almond also resonates.
Then firewood-dry, soft oud stands out, contrasting with a sweet, pungent resin note. This results in a beautiful, albeit very subtle animalic.
A particularly pleasant, smoky honey-leather note determines the base of the fragrance.
