Kilian Incense Oud EDP (DISCONTINUED)
Description
Kilian Incense Oud EDP is a 2011 fragrance from the house's "Arabian Nights" collection, created by Sidonie Lancesseur as an olfactory journey inspired by incense and bakhoor traditions. Rose, cardamom, and pink pepper open into a smoky patchouli-cedar heart, before settling on genuine agarwood layered with incense, sandalwood, and French labdanum. Kilian has since discontinued the fragrance; Venba continues offering it in sample sizes for collectors who want to experience a retired formula from the house's early years.
Scent Character
Incense Oud is genuinely oud-forward. Rose and pepper give it a spiced opening, but the identity of the fragrance sits in its base: real agarwood layered with incense, sandalwood, and labdanum for a dense, resinous, temple-incense character. Translation: a woody-incense oud, smoky, resinous, and traditional rather than sweet or fresh.
