As darkness falls, the streets transform into something mysterious yet enticing. The rustling of leaves, distant footsteps growing ever closer... But what is that? In the air, there's a distinct scent of Turkish rose with rich, smoky oud, sweet tobacco amber, and enigmatic musk. This is how the Oud After Dark fragrance by Amouroud introduces itself in the first moments. Its presence is intense enough to immediately announce your arrival—provocative and highly alluring. Soon, the composition evolves into a thick, syrupy fruit blend with hints of prune and apricot, all resting on a smoky, deeply rich woody base. The name itself suggests the best time for this perfume—evening or night; and of course, the season calls for cold air to unveil such a complex and rich oriental blend.
The fragrance begins with an intimate combination of warm, slightly bitter saffron, vibrant pepper, and juicy apricot, ripe to sweet perfection. Delicate osmanthus and spicy cloves add piquant accents to the mix.
At the heart of the composition are velvety suede and dark, woody oud, enriched with juicy purple plum, enchanting Turkish rose, and balsamic hints of olibanum.
The base wraps the body in smoky notes of tobacco and rich sweet amber, settling on a deep base of ebony wood with vanilla orchid accents.
Reviews about Amouroud Oud After Dark
At the beginning, it is dense with the smell of expensive leather products. There is something else, after an hour it becomes more suede-like, which is better. There is a smokiness, reminiscent of prunes, something far away. I started to smell a hint of incense. I bought it for my husband's anniversary on another website a couple of days ago, but I am wearing it myself now. There are notes that I can't distinguish because I don't know their smell in nature. This is my first heavy perfume (I have Khaltat Night Attar Collection, which is more gourmand, and I am a fan of it, so I recommend testing it for those who enjoy such heavy scents). I see them for evenings, in a restaurant, under dark clothing, they perfectly complement the outfit. Not for everyday use, more suitable for a man... maybe because I associate them with my husband already. Definitely test it if possible, to make sure you won't regret it and be satisfied for a long time! If you are looking for a versatile perfume for all occasions, this is not your choice. There are few reviews about the perfume, so I am describing my feelings to help others make a choice. The downside is that it comes in a large volume, unless you buy it for two people.
This fragrance is always with me))) I haven't bought the full size yet, but every time I wear this scent, I feel like a Goddess)))
Definitely, my notes of musk and amber. I can even feel it in my memories right now)
