Precious Liquid Acqua Oud EDP

Description

Precious Liquid Acqua Oud EDP, released in 2023, is a fresh aquatic-woody fragrance. It opens bright with sea notes, lime, bergamot, pineapple and melon, with the marine facets leading. The heart pairs driftwood and seagrass with a clean, almost translucent oud, and the base settles into ambergris, patchouli, vetiver and moss. The oud is present but airy, never smoky or heavy. Created by perfumer Richard Herpin.
