Amouage Oud Zuhal EDP (Dubai Exclusive)
Description
Oud Zuhal is one of Amouage's most concentrated tributes to genuine agarwood, a limited Essences Collection release built entirely around real Assam and Indonesian oud. It opens on a peppery brightness of cardamom, black pepper, and pink pepper, moves into a dense heart of Assam oud and patchouli, then settles into a heavier Indonesian oud and amber base. This is Amouage working at its most maximalist and traditional, a ceremonial oud composition rather than a modern, diluted oud accord.
