Enigma Aoud Eau de Parfum

Fragrance description

Sometimes it's best to close your eyes and let your imagination run wild. I see outside the window the lush vegetation in the best moment of the year, I see, hear, feel the delicate petals on my face, I touch their silky texture with my hands. I immerse myself in this feeling for as long as I can, so that every tiny part of me feels the relaxation it needs.

Enigma Aoud is a fragrance of effortless elegance, grace, sophistication, joy and relief. When you first smell it, you may be astounded: Where is the Aoud? This is a secret that you will learn step by step. It starts with a floral aldehyde opening with an exotic element of sweet peach that is juicy but also slightly "suede-like" like its peel. Combined with bergamot, the opening of this fragrance brightens up and leads us to a floral bouquet where the main role is played by geranium with jasmine and elements of ylang-ylang and Rose De Mai (whose fragrance profile is a subtle hint of what might happen next).

You probably imagined the end of the fragrance, which opens with bergamot and peach, differently. The drydown is surprising, the play includes heavier woody notes in the form of warm sandalwood, aoud whose presence is not obvious, resins, musk, vanilla. The whole results in a rich and very sensual composition, very soft like velvet and slightly powdery. If I had to describe this fragrance in one short sentence, I would say: floral aoud with an exotic twist.
