Fragrance Du Bois Oud Orange Intense EDP

Description

Fragrance du Bois built its name on genuine, organic oud oil harvested from its own agarwood plantations, a rarity in an industry where "oud" is often synthetic. Oud Orange Intense, created by perfumer Caroline Sabas and launched in 2013, takes that authentic oud heritage in an unexpected direction: rather than a smoky, resinous oud, this is a sun-warmed fruity-gourmand built on coconut and bourbon vanilla, with real agarwood folded quietly into the base for depth rather than drama. The result reads more tropical dessert than traditional Middle Eastern oud: a lighter, sweeter side of the house.

Scent Character

• Vanilla & Gourmand Sweetness: 45%
• Tropical Fruit & Coconut: 25%
• Oud & Woods: 20%
• Musk: 10%

Translation: a creamy, dessert-like vanilla-coconut fragrance with a genuine oud-and-musk undertone, sweet and inviting up front, warmer and woodier as it settles.

Longevity: Excellent, typically 8+ hours on skin, thanks to the vanilla-musk-oud base.

Sillage: Moderate to strong in the first hours, settling closer to the skin as the vanilla and oud take over.

Projection: Noticeable at arm's length when freshly applied; an intimate, skin-hugging gourmand by the base.

FAQ

Does Oud Orange Intense actually contain real oud?
Yes. Fragrance du Bois uses its own sustainably-farmed agarwood oil, and here it appears as a quiet base note rather than the star of the show.

Is this more sweet or more woody?
Sweet. It's a coconut-vanilla gourmand first, with oud and musk adding warmth in the background.

Is it unisex?
Yes, it's designed and marketed as a unisex fragrance.

What's the best way to try it first?
Start with a 1 mL or 5 mL sample, enough to test longevity and how the vanilla-coconut opening settles on your skin before buying the full bottle.
