Oud Immortel by Byredo is a Woody Chypre fragrance for women and men. Oud Immortel was launched in 2010. Top notes are Limoncello, Incense and Cardamom; middle notes are Agarwood (Oud), Patchouli, Papyrus and Brazilian Rosewood; base notes are oak moss and Tobacco.
Oud possesses a great cultural significance because of its use in traditional incense and perfumes, and it is also mentioned in one of the world's oldest written texts - the Sanskrit Vedas from India. When the once light Aquilaria tree heartwood becomes infected with a specific type of mold, it defends itself with a dark and fragrant protective resin. This now dark wood, oud or agarwood, holds a complex fragrance, resembling few or no other natural ingredients.
Oud Immortel is a chypre woody fragrance that merges patchouli and papyrus so the whole composition has a smoky character. Tobacco leaf and moss contribute to the depth and complexity of oud, while rosewood and incense cause the elegant silage on skin.
Its is available as Eau de Parfum.
