Oajan is one of the fragrances of Parfums de Marly, a house inspired by the splendour of the Château de Marly in the 18th century. It is a warm, golden amber built on honey, spices and resins.
Honey, cinnamon and osmanthus open the composition. Amber, cistus labdanum and benzoin form a resinous heart, before a base of vanilla, tonka bean, patchouli and davana.

Oajan in detail
Parfums de Marly draws on the splendour of the Château de Marly, where Louis XV's court celebrated the arts and perfume. Oajan is one of its warmest ambers: a golden composition built on honey, sweet spices and resins, which Volute files among ambers.
The official pyramid opens with honey, cinnamon and osmanthus, a flower with apricot accents. The heart brings together resinous, enveloping amber, cistus labdanum and benzoin. The base pairs vanilla, tonka bean, patchouli and fruity davana.
Oajan suits autumn and winter, especially in the evening: an evening by the fire, a festive dinner. Its honey and cinnamon opening makes it immediately warm, and its resins carry that warmth deep into the base.
Three amber fragrances in our catalogue come close: Honey Oud by Floris shares honey, patchouli, amber, labdanum and vanilla; Ambre 114 by Histoires de Parfums pairs patchouli, amber, vanilla, tonka bean and benzoin; Ambre Chromatique by Maison Crivelli finds davana, osmanthus and benzoin again.
