Is Candy Aoud a traditional oud fragrance?+−
Not in the classical sense. While it features a prominent oud and wood base, the heavy focus on banana, pear, and apple makes it much sweeter and more experimental than a traditional Middle Eastern or medicinal oud.
How long does this fragrance typically last?+−
It is known for exceptional longevity. Much like other heavy hitters from this house, you can expect it to remain present on the skin for the entire day and well into the next, often requiring a thorough scrub to fully remove.
Is this fragrance suitable for warm weather?+−
Most people find it best suited for cooler climates in autumn and winter. The "jammy" sweetness of the fruit notes and the weight of the balsams and woods may feel too heavy or cloying in high-humidity summer conditions.
Is this scent more masculine or feminine?+−
It is marketed as a unisex fragrance. The fruity notes and iris provide a sweetness often associated with feminine perfumery, while the leather, birch, and oud base provide a rugged, smoky depth that leans masculine.
