A Sensual Unveiling of Oud’s Softer Side
GUERLAIN’s Oud Nude is a captivating exploration of oud’s more tender and delicate facets. Traditionally known for its dark, intense, and enigmatic qualities, oud wood is masterfully transformed in this fragrance, revealing a softer, more intimate character. This exquisite composition is a testament to GUERLAIN’s ability to reinvent classic ingredients, offering a fresh and sophisticated take on one of perfumery’s most revered notes.
The Essence of Oud Nude
In Oud Nude, the rich, woody depth of oud is beautifully contrasted with the creaminess of white almond, creating a scent that is as surprising as it is luxurious. This initial blend lays the groundwork for a beguiling heart, where a tantalising raspberry accord intertwines with the blond wood tones of sumptuous Atlas cedar. The result is a fragrance that balances the rugged with the refined, the powerful with the gentle.
At its core, Oud Nude features a voluptuous rose that sensually caresses the bark of the naked wood, adding a touch of romance and elegance to the composition. This delicate floral note further softens the intensity of oud, making it more approachable yet no less sophisticated. The scent then transitions into a warm, creamy base, where sandalwood and Madagascan vanilla tincture come together to exalt the oud, illuminating it with a gentle, glowing warmth that lingers beautifully on the skin.
The Unique Brilliance of Jalali Oud
While GUERLAIN’s Oud Nude explores a tender interpretation of oud, it’s essential to recognize the exceptional qualities of Jalali Oud—a rare and prized variety that stands out for its purity and complexity. Sourced from ancient trees in remote, pristine environments, Jalali Oud is known for its deep, resonant aroma, which is both smooth and richly layered.
What makes Jalali Oud particularly special is its ability to balance intense, earthy notes with subtle hints of sweetness, making it a versatile and refined ingredient in the world of perfumery. The meticulous extraction process preserves its full aromatic profile, resulting in a scent that is both powerful and sophisticated without being overwhelming.

Oud Nude by GUERLAIN is more than just a fragrance; it is an intimate experience, a journey into the softer, more sensuous side of oud. Perfect for those who appreciate the art of subtlety and refinement, Oud Nude is a modern classic that invites you to explore the delicate balance between strength and softness, tradition and innovation.
