Pearl Oud by Kilian Perfum

What it is: A perfume that's a modern interpretation of the precious gemstone valued for its beauty and ancestry to the culture of Doha.

Fragrance story: Like the ideal pearl, this perfume is a round and smooth cocktail of spicy saffron and black pepper glowing with iridescent powdery iris at the opening. The pearl's opulent nature is realized at the heart, with a bouquet of jasmine, Turkish rose and ylang ylang. Pearl Oud reveals a rare drydown, with an intense animatic blend of Indian oud, precious patchouli and castoreum.

Style: Woody, aromatic.

Notes:

- Top: iris.

- Middle: jasmine.

- Base: ylang ylang.
