Description
Fragrance Du Bois is a niche luxury perfume house born from the richest essences of nature, crafted by fifth generation perfumers from the 17th century French traditions of Grasse. All Du Bois fragrances are created using 100% pure, organic Oud oil and other sustainably-sourced ingredients.
Oud Vert Intense is an Eau de Parfum which features fresh top notes that surrender to a complex seductive undertone. The fragrance opens with elements of Mediterranean bergamot, Madagascan ginger and Sri Lankan cardamom, which blend perfectly with the aromatic heart of coriander seeds, captivating nutmeg and a dash of green geranium, on a base in which smoky Oud melds with vetiver, cedar and musk. Oud Vert Intense was launched in 2013. The nose behind this fragrance is Olivier Pescheux.

The best citrus in perfumery. Hands down!! And the geranium note in this is stunning. The mixture of the two blend perfectly.
Note: Aedes des Venustas ‘Pelargonium’ is a less expensive option. They’re 95% similar.

One of the best soft oud perfumes with citrus, floraly notes I have tried (do not usually like out that much) probably because it barely smells like oud. The oud in here is very weak but I love it because it is not overpowering at all and also very wearable for office, summer and spring. Such an interesting green, floral, citrusy perfume. Rather sharp citrusy bergamot opening but settles beautifully and melts together with the skin to a softer scent. Smelling it on a strip does not show this scent’s true beautiful soul. It is not super ordinary and difficult to understand. I am not sure, if it is worth 450 CHF / Dollars for a FB of 50ml, although the oud is sustainably sourced and certified. Big plus for that. It’s on my wishlist for sure but I am not sure, if I would splurge that money.

Beautiful citrua floral herbal beauty for summers. Feels green and summery. Done to perfection with high quality ingredients. Lasts a very long time. Gets better with the dry down. Fantastic. 8.5/10.

I like this! It is a part of the ‘oud’ series, though there’s not much oud in it. This is the freshest among the lot I tried. While the others are typical orientals with rose, amber, etc, this fragrance has a focus on bergamot-spices and geranium/vetiver. There might be a bit of oud showing up at the end, but minuscule on my skin.
After a very pleasant bergamot/vetiver opening, this blends in with spices such as cardamom and coriander seeds. Quite masculine, I would think.
It lasts rather a long time and the sillage is medium.
Tried it in Bangkok in the Intercontinental arcade. They told me the oud is harvested sustainably in Thailand.
Update: the scent is good, but the spraying mechanism is poor quality
