Tender Oud
Tender Oud by Mizensir is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with grapefruit, cardamom and saffron, moves into cypriol and mate and dries down to muscone and cedarwood. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Saffron Leathery, medicinal and slightly metallic. The signature of modern niche.
Heart
- Cypriol Also called nagarmotha. Smoky, leathery, earthy — a vetiver relative.
- Mate Dry, smoky, bitter green tea. Toasted rather than fresh.
Dry-down
- Muscone Rich, warm, powdery musk. Rounder than the white musks.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
