An olfactory
The fragrance requires attention from the first second. The exit is a declaration of intentions where the cumin contributes a spicy and intensely carnant warmth, balanced by the Amber Cystus sweetness and the narcotic sensuality of a dark and night jasmine.
When entering the heart, the composition becomes arid, mystical and eastern. The incense displays its scrolls of sacred smoke, interlacing themselves with the earthy richness of the Patchouli, the metallic luxury of saffron and the beloved dryness of the papyrus. It is a dense and textured prelude that prepares the scenario for the real star.
In drying, the authentic OUD reveals all its splendor. Accompanied by the touch of smoked leather that provides birch wood and deep vetiver greenery, agar wood sits on a resinous bed of Lábdano, cedar and creamy sandalwood. The result is a persistent, dark, intensely beloved wake and an implacable luxury.

Ideal for...

Inspiration
Fundamental part of the famous "Black Collection" by Perris Monte Carlo. Oud Imperial was born of the desire of Gian Luca Perris to honor the natural essential oil of the Aquilaria tree (OUD), a raw material so scarce and valuable that has been used in sacred rituals and oriental palaces for millennia. Its objective: to present the OUD without costumes, in all its imperial greatness.
The protagonist notes
The Cumin and the Jasmine they configure a spicy and animal opening, which awakens the senses with almost human warmth.
The Incense, the Saffron and the Papyrus orchestrate a dry, mystical and steaming heart that provides a deeply oriental and arid texture.
The Oud and the Birch they seal the experience with a resinous, woody closure with strong duty shades, supported by the creaminess of sandalwood and the structure of the cedar.
The vision of Perris Monte Carlo
In a saturated market of synthetic "Oud Chords", the Monegasque house is committed to authenticity. By combining the actual essential oil with birch extract (known by its aroma to tanned and bonfire leather), Perris Monte Carlo amplifies the most robust and mysterious facets of wood, creating a composition without commercial concessions, destined to the True knowledgeable.

What makes this perfume special

Expert tips: the art of perfumer
Danger of staining in clear garments: The authenticity of raw materials in this formula is evident in the color of its juice. Due to the extreme concentration of natural OUD, Lábdano resins, vetiver and absolute incense, the liquid is deeply dark. It is strictly forbidden to vaporize it close to white garments or clear silks. Apply it directly on the skin and wait a few minutes before dressing.
Olfing fatigue management: Given the brutal power of this concentration of wood and spices, vaporizing it near the neck can "saturate" your own olfactory receptors in a matter of minutes, making you mistakenly believe that the perfume has disappeared. The master trick is to apply it on the wrists, on the back of the neck (nape) and behind the knees. In this way, you will enjoy the stele in motion for hours without overwhelming your sense of smell.
Layering high seam: Being an exceptionally dry, smoked and little sweet, is the perfect canvas to experiment. If on some occasion you want to soften your rudeness, superimpose by applying first a slight mist of a pure soliflor perfume of rose damascena or an absolute vanilla on the skin. The Imperial Oud will absorb the floral sweetness, creating a fully custom oriental symphony.
