Étoile Cachée

Oud at the heart over a vanilla base, powdery and resinous.

Oud sits at the centre of this oil, dark and resinous, with a sweet, powdery character and a touch of fresh spice running around it. Vanilla takes the base and rounds the oud into something more approachable. Formal dinners and special occasions call for it, for men and women in autumn and winter; it wears long, with moderate projection. You buy Étoile Cachée by weight, as pure alcohol-free oil.
