My Oud
My Oud by Bond No. 9 is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. The house lists its notes as pineapple, grapefruit, frankincense, immortelle, beeswax, rose, oud, labdanum, patchouli and myrrh, without saying which you smell first. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Listed notes
- Pineapple Tangy, boozy and tropical. Loud and hard to hide.
- Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
- Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.
- Immortelle Maple syrup, curry and hay. Genuinely strange and very distinctive.
- Beeswax Honeyed and waxy with a faint barnyard hum underneath.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- Labdanum Sticky, leathery resin. Dark honey and old books.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Myrrh Bitter, smoky resin. Ancient-smelling and slightly cool.
