Description

Cambodian Oud is a distinctive agarwood oil known for its rich, warm, woody and resinous character. Its aroma can reveal sweet balsamic, earthy, slightly fruity, smoky and leathery nuances, creating a complex and luxurious presence in the dry-down. The combination of warmth and resinous depth gives Cambodian Oud a characteristic profile that works beautifully in both traditional and modern fragrance styles.

In perfumery, Cambodian Oud is valued as a high-impact base note and character material. It can provide depth, warmth and richness while forming the foundation of an oud-focused composition. Used in smaller amounts, it can also add natural complexity to floral, amber and woody fragrances without becoming the sole focus of the formula.

Cambodian Oud works particularly well in oud, oriental, woody, amber, floral and resinous compositions. It pairs naturally with rose, sandalwood and saffron, while patchouli, vetiver and cypriol can reinforce its earthy woody character. Labdanum, frankincense and benzoin can enhance its warm balsamic facets and create a fuller, smoother dry-down.

Perfumers' Tip

Cambodian Oud works beautifully as the centerpiece of a warm, rich oud accord. Start with a low dosage and evaluate the dry-down, then build around it with sandalwood, rose and saffron for a smooth traditional profile or with resins and woods for greater depth.
