Royal Oud
Eau de parfum
A luminous oud, lit by grapefruit and cardamom.
Royal Oud takes oud against the grain: instead of making it dark and animalic, it wants it bright and elegant. Grapefruit and cardamom open the composition with a sparkling, spicy burst, before a heart of angelica and geranium.
The base brings together oud, an incense accord, benzoin and cedarwood: woods and resins that stay luminous, without heaviness. A fresh, refined woody fragrance for anyone who wants to tame oud.

Royal Oud in detail
At Creed, a house of tradition born in London, oud is not a dark, animalic material: Royal Oud wants it luminous, almost fresh, for lovers of modern elegance. It is a good way into a material that often intimidates.
The official pyramid begins with grapefruit and cardamom, a sparkling, spicy start. The heart pairs green, musky angelica with slightly rosy geranium. The base brings together oud, an incense accord, benzoin and cedarwood: woods and resins that keep air and clarity.
Royal Oud suits spring, autumn and winter, by day as well as by night: a date, a dinner, a working day when you want a fragrance with character. Its brightness makes it easy to wear even in mild weather.
Three woody fragrances in our catalogue come close: Decision 42 by Amouage shares cardamom, incense and cedarwood; Drunk Lovers by Born To Stand Out finds grapefruit, benzoin and cedarwood again; Honour Man by Amouage also pairs geranium, incense and cedarwood.
