Al Haramain Oudh Musk

Oud and musk are key notes in Arabic olfactory culture. The former embodies the sacred, as its smoky-woody fragrance often accompanies various ceremonies and rituals. The latter is a symbol of the corporeal, primal, and instinctive. The combination of these two contrasting aromas is the central theme of the Oudh Musk perfume by Al Haramain. The spicy oud woodiness in the composition is strikingly expressed through spices, vetiver, and cedar. The musk’s presence is deepened by amber and vanilla.

The fragrance opens with cozy spicy cardamom and sharp black pepper. Here, warmth, piquancy, and an oriental vibe coexist.

In the heart, the depth and charm of oud wood are mirrored by resinous vetiver, pine-like cedar, and a woody forest note.

The trail reveals musk, but not pure classic musk; it carries hints of animalistic tones and vanilla thanks to amber and tonka beans.
