The making

Made the slow way

Each composition is macerated for four weeks, then chilled close to freezing, filtered to clarity and rested for six more before a single bottle is filled. Every box is assembled by hand in England, and because the hands are few, the batches stay at 1,000.

Black Oud

Deep, woody, reserved

Black Oud opens with cardamom and black pepper, a sharp, clean lift that turns warm within the hour. At its centre, oud and sandalwood: a resin formed over years in the Aquilaria tree, steadied by wood. It settles into dark vanilla and amber, the warmth that stays. Noticed at close range. Present across a room, never loud.

Gold Oud

Warm, sweet, open

Gold Oud opens with raspberry and lemon zest, a lift rather than a fruit bowl, and turns warm within the hour. At its centre, oud, cedarwood and soft musk: the same resin that anchors Black Oud, taken brighter. It settles into vanilla, cinnamon and warm spice, the warmth that carries into the evening. Smoother and deeper than Black Oud, and made to be worn by anyone.

Is one of them unisex?

Gold Oud is made to be worn by anyone.

Is this a gift set?

It can be. Orders over £160 arrive in the couture gift box, assembled by hand in England, at no cost.
