Accord Oud
Eau de parfum
A fruity, leathery oud, where blackberry and saffron come before patchouli.
Accord Oud forms a pair with Oud Immortel: Byredo explores two faces of the same wood, oud, the resinous heartwood of the aquilaria, burned as incense for centuries in India and the Middle East. Here, oud is dressed in dark fruit and leather.
Blackberry and saffron open on a fruity, spicy note. Clary sage and a leather accord form the heart, before a base of patchouli, powdery musks and oud. An intense amber fragrance, which the house intends for everyone.

Accord Oud in detail
Byredo, the house founded in Stockholm by Ben Gorham, devotes two fragrances to oud. Accord Oud is the amber version and Oud Immortel the woody one: here, the precious wood meets dark fruit and supple leather, in a fragrance the house ranks among its intense creations.
The official pyramid opens with juicy, dark blackberry and saffron, spicy and slightly leathery. The heart pairs clary sage, herbaceous with an ambery edge, with a leather accord. The base gathers patchouli, powdery musks and oud, woody and animalic.
Accord Oud is worn in the evening, in autumn and winter, when its dark notes come into their own. Its blackberry adds a roundness that softens the oud and makes it more approachable.
Three amber fragrances in our catalogue share several of its materials: Amber Aoud by Roja Parfums also brings together saffron, patchouli, oud and musk; Black Gold by Mancera pairs oud, patchouli, leather and musk; Drunk Saffron by Born To Stand Out combines saffron, leather and patchouli.
