    The Fascination of Oud – Depth, Luxury & Alpine Interpretation

    Oud – hardly any other fragrance evokes such deep emotions and sensual images. Warm, mysterious, and with an almost mystical aura, it is considered one of the noblest elements of the art of perfumery. At Acqua Alpes, it is not staged loudly but interpreted stylishly – in alpine clarity and refined depth.

    What is Oud?

    Oud is formed when the wood of the agarwood tree (Aquilaria) is infected by a specific fungus. As a natural defense reaction, the tree forms an aromatic resin layer inside – the coveted, deep dark oud wood.

    This transformation makes Oud so unique: Each essence is a one-of-a-kind – intense, mysterious, profound.

    Why is Oud so precious?

    Oud is among the most precious raw materials in the world.

    • Only certain trees form it under very specific conditions

    • The maturation often takes decades

    • The extraction is done with fine craftsmanship and elaborate distillation

    The result: a fragrance of extraordinary depth – full of character, warmth, and rare elegance.

    Oud in Modern Perfumery

    In the fragrance compositions of Acqua Alpes, Oud meets alpine clarity – a combination of depth and purity.

    • 3333: Cinnamon, pepper, amber, and noble oud – powerful, charismatic, leathery

    • 3007: Fresh bergamot contrasts the warm depth of oud – spicy, clear, modern

    • 3770: Honey, labdanum, silver musk, and oud – a composition with a golden core

    A Touch of the Orient – Stylishly Interpreted Alpinely

    Oud brings character, presence, and warmth to every fragrance composition.

    At Acqua Alpes, this olfactory depth is not opulently staged, but transformed into a reduced elegance – carried by alpine understatement and subtle luxury.

    A fragrance that remains – in memory and feeling.
