Description
Collection of oriental perfumes Esteban adds another edition this year –Belle au Parfum de Oud, new fragrance inspired by the Orient, which reveals sensual and multifaceted charms of the orient. The fragrance introduces accentuated oud notes surrounded by vibrant, rich shades of resins, wood and flowers.
Top notes of Belle au Parfum de Oud provide a union of luminous and juicy mandarin, cistus (labdanum) and saffron, announcing an exotic floral heart created of ylang-ylang and lily. Floral notes are embraced by nagarmotha (cypriol oil) resting on woody notes of patchouli and oud warmed by labdanum.
Magic of Oud is visibly supported by earthy and chocolate-like patchouli in this fragrance and it leaves a thick, velvety trail on the skin. Mandarin freshness cools down the warm, dark, creamy and compact layer of flowers and woody notes, while spicy notes of saffron make the composition more interesting and slightly tart. Fresh, forest notes come to the first plan as the fragrance develops providing a colder mixture of earth, woody notes and floral notes of lily. Game of warm, creamy, woody notes with cold spicy-floral accords accentuated layers of the composition. As the fragrance develops, its scent becomes more intense, woody-earthy, and velvety, as if sweetened with cinnamon.
Fragrance Belle au Parfum de Oud can be obtained as 50ml Eau de Parfum. Outer carton, unlike other fragrances of the collection, is colored in purple and decorated with illustration of white flowers.
Belle au Parfum de Oud was launched in 2012.

28)an hidden gem, a powdery oud of quality with a touch of freshness (mandarin and saffron). Even close to the very good Oud of Kurkdjian. To say it short, GO for it!!

Gosh this is a nice fragrance – much better than I was expecting it to be. Only got it today (a freebie from the company – I am a journalist) but I would say that when you spray it you get a major dose of patchouli and perhaps oud (I don’t know what oud smells like, but this is certainly woody…), which burns off fairly quickly and then the fragrance settles to a warm, woody, plummy composition. I would love to have Lutens’ Bois et Fruits on hand to check it against, as this feels very Lutens-like. Long persistence – mine came this morning and has lasted through a bath and is still going strong seven hours later – I’ve been getting lovely whiffs of it all day despite only wearing one spray on my left wrist. Round about now, it’s settling to a skin scent, and becoming more powdery.
Kudos to the packaging, too, which is very elegant, and would make a nice gift. It’s very dark purple matte card with silver flowers, and the clear blob of glass on the front of the bottle (meant to evoke resin?) pokes out through a little window at the front. The packaging wraps round the bottle and is held shut with two black-satin covered elastic straps, so it feels quite special to unwrap it, though I daresay it could get annoying if you had to do it every day. The rest of the bottle is frosted. I would say this fragrance is definitely unisex – the DH and I will be sharing it.
