Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud Satin Mood Extrait (Tester)

Description

Oud Satin Mood Extrait de Parfum is the richest version of Maison Francis Kurkdjian's 2015 rose-oud original, reformulated as an Extrait in 2017. Perfumer Francis Kurkdjian pairs Laotian oud with Bulgarian and Turkish rose and a creamy vanilla-caramel base, turning a classic oud-rose pairing into something closer to dessert.

It's an opulent, sweet-leaning oud built for intensity — smooth rather than smoky, with the rose kept front and center throughout the wear.

Scent Character

• Oud/Woody — 30%
• Rose/Floral — 30%
• Sweet (Vanilla, Caramel) — 25%
