In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Reviews →

Trouvessa's Pour lámour de Oud blends bright bergamot and pink pepper with a heavy dark base of agarwood and guaiac wood. Sweet Turkish rose and saffron soften the sharp coriander in the opening. It suits cold evening events when you want a rich, spicy trail that stays on leather jackets and heavy wool coats.
