Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud Satin Mood EDP (Tester)

Description

Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud Satin Mood, created by founder-perfumer Francis Kurkdjian and released in 2015, is an amber-woody fragrance built around a rose-and-oud theme despite its name. Bulgarian rose, violet and strawberry open into a Turkish rose heart, settling into a warm base of agarwood (oud), vanilla, amber, benzoin, caramel and cedar. This listing is the full-size "Tester" bottle: identical juice, without retail packaging.

Scent Character

• Sweet: 40%
• Floral: 30%
• Woody: 20%
• Fruity: 10%

Translation: a sweet, powdery rose scent wrapped in vanilla-amber warmth, softer and less resinous than its name suggests, with oud playing a supporting role rather than taking center stage.
