Pernoire Oudian Extrait

Description

Oudian makes you feel like the most commanding presence in the room, the one people notice before you even speak. Fair warning: this is not a subtle scent, and it's not meant to be. The name is a deliberate mashup of “Oud” and “Durian”. Andreas Wilhelm pairs real agarwood with the famously polarizing tropical fruit, launched in 2025. Reviewers describe a fruity, guava-like opening (not everyone picks out the durian specifically) with a funky oud accompanied by labdanum and frankincense, expressive and unusual without tipping into unpleasant.

Scent Character

• Oud: 44%
• Woody: 33%
• Spicy: 22%

Translation: a bold, funky pairing of tropical durian and real agarwood, grounded in leather and vetiver, expressive, not subtle.
