Oud Nude Guerlain: A Sensual and Timeless Fragrance for All
Oud Nude Guerlain, launched in 2022, is a captivating unisex fragrance that has taken the olfactory world by storm. This scent is a part of Guerlain's prestigious L'Art et La Matière collection, a line dedicated to celebrating the art of perfumery with high - quality ingredients.
The Artistry Behind the Scent
Created by the talented perfumer Delphine Jelk, Oud Nude is more than just a fragrance; it's a work of art. Jelk aimed to tell a story of sensuality, of bodies, curves, and bare skin through scent. She took the often - dark and intense oud and transformed it, revealing its softer, more delicate facets. By taming the invigorating aspects of oud, she brought it into a new light, expressing its sensual side in a way that is both unique and alluring.
A Symphony of Notes
Top Notes
The fragrance opens with a delightful combination of almond and cumin. The white almond offers a smooth, almost polished - wood - like quality, immediately creating an elegant and refined first impression. It's like running your hand along a piece of well - crafted furniture. Paired with the spicy cumin, which adds a hint of warmth and sensuality, as if the warmth of the skin on a sunny day, the top notes draw you in and set the stage for what's to come.

Middle Notes
As the scent develops, the middle notes emerge. Here, we find raspberry accord and Atlas cedar. The raspberry adds a fruity, slightly sweet and tart element, like a fresh - picked raspberry on a summer's day. It's a playful note that contrasts beautifully with the rugged yet luxurious Atlas cedar. The cedar brings a rich, golden - hued, woody aroma, enhancing the overall depth of the fragrance. Together, they create a harmonious blend that is both refreshing and captivating.
Base Notes
The base notes of Oud Nude are where the true essence of the fragrance lies. We have sandalwood, oud, and vanilla. The creamy sandalwood provides a soft, smooth base, like a gentle caress. The oud, which is the star of the show, reveals its rich, complex nature. It's not the overpowering, dark oud that is often associated with traditional oud - based scents. Instead, in Oud Nude, the oud is tamed, its edges softened, and it exudes a more refined and approachable aroma. Complemented by the warm, sweet vanilla, which is a true mark of Guerlain's expertise (derived from organic vanilla pods, cold - infused in organic alcohol using a century - old technique), the base notes create a long - lasting, comforting, and utterly luxurious finish.
The Olfactory Experience
Wearing Oud Nude is like embarking on a journey. From the initial spritz, the fragrance evolves on the skin. The top notes give way to the middle notes, and finally, the base notes settle in, creating a multi - dimensional olfactory experience. It has an impressive longevity, lasting for hours on end, and a moderate sillage that leaves a captivating trail without being overwhelming. Whether worn during the day for a touch of elegance in the office or on a casual outing, or at night for a special occasion, Oud Nude adapts seamlessly. It's a fragrance that can be enjoyed by both women and men, transcending gender boundaries with its universal appeal. It exudes sophistication, warmth, and a touch of mystery, making it a must - have addition to any fragrance collection.
