Oud Zen by Areej Le Doré centers on raw agarwood layered with warm Indian saffron and resinous tolu balsam. Released in 2017 by perfumer Russian Adam as part of the brand's inaugural trio, this scent pairs deep Indian oud with smooth sandalwood, castoreum, and myrrh. It avoids sharp barnyard funk, delivering instead a rich, smoky warmth that glows on skin during cold late-autumn evenings. Wearers looking for authentic artisan oud with resinous sweetness will find it sits firmly between dark wood and velvety balsam, best reserved for formal winter wear or private fireside rituals.

Russian Adam launched Ottoman Empire in 2017, pairing hydro-distilled Bulgarian rose with authentic Assam and Bangladesh agarwood. Top notes of white rose, frangipani, and green cardamom settle quickly into a dense heart of Indian oud, saffron, and cinnamon. The base rests on thick oakmoss, sandalwood, and unburned myrrh. It smells regal, vintage, and distinctly oily on skin during cold late-autumn evenings. Show less
