Oud is a highly prized and expensive fragrance ingredient that is derived from the wood of the Agar (Aquilaria) tree, mainly found in Southeast Asia. It is known for its warm, musky, animalic, and slightly sweet scent, which is described as deeply rich and complex, with olfactive specificities ranging from herbal to woody. Oud is considered a luxury product due to its rarity, and it takes a long time to develop naturally, as the resin is produced when the tree is damaged by external and environmental forces. The scent of oud is often described as smoky and mysterious, and it is known for its long-lasting properties, often used as a base note in perfumery. Oud pairs well with floral, wood, or spice scents and is commonly used for meditation, as it is believed to eliminate negativity and stimulate positivity. However, it is important to note that oud is a premium grade, alcohol-free, and phthalate- free fragrance note that should be diluted before applying directly to the skin
