Oud du Jour is a warm, woody, spicy scent created for Men and Women in 2016 by perfumer Claude Dir.
Review
This scent is a calm, woody, spicy scent. It is a great scent for those just beginning to experiment with Oud fragrances, as it maintains a softer essence. A delicate blend of fruits and flowers blends well with the spices, creating a lightness that makes one think of a desert forest. It can be worn in the workplace, as well as to any formal or casual occasion, and will wear well in any season. It will remain light for an Oud scent, but will last. It shares similarities with Memo Paris Oriental Leather and Tom Ford Tuscan Leather.
Inspiration
Oud du Jour is an homage to Oud and its earthy energy that draws you in. It envelops the senses, giving a radiant and comforting element to the spirit.
Notes
This scent begins with a spice infusion of Saffron and Pink Pepper, with a hint of sweetness from Wild Raspberry. A touch of resinous Olibanum is mellowed just slightly with a blend of Rose, Lily, and Prune in the heart. Indonesian Oud and Guaiac Wood add a gentle woody touch of the East as Amber and Patchouli add an earthy layer that keeps the woods and spices thriving.
