Before distillation, the wood undergoes a moderate fermentation, enough to give it depth and character, but without pushing it towards the sour or heavily fermented profiles found in other ouds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmelled straight from the bottle, the first impression can be somewhat bitter, with a dark fruity sensation, almost like fruit peel. It is a brief opening that doesn't fully anticipate what comes next.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is on the skin that it reveals its true character: \u003cstrong\u003eleather, smoke and phenolic facets\u003c\/strong\u003e unfold slowly and densely. It has that distinctive aroma many associate with barnyard oud, but with no sourness at all. There are no lactic notes, no cheesy notes, none of the tart side of heavy fermentation. What remains is a clean, dry stable: worked leather, smoked wood and a dark depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite its darkness, it is an \u003cstrong\u003eexceptionally elegant\u003c\/strong\u003e oud. Its evolution is slow and enveloping, and it brings a deeply meditative, relaxing feeling. An oud to wear in silence, to smell with your eyes closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn perfumery it is especially valuable for adding a dark, smoky-leather base with nobility, without the animalic aggressiveness of more fermented ouds. Ideal for leather compositions, tobacco accords, incense and Arabian-inspired perfumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA dark, serene and deep oud, for those who seek the most elegant and contemplative side of oud.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Glass Atelier","offers":[{"title":"1 gramo","offer_id":59432095187276,"sku":null,"price":120.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0948\/0804\/7948\/files\/IMG-1058.heic?v=1792770085","url":"https:\/\/theglassatelier.com\/products\/oud-laos-leather-aquilaria-crassna","provider":"The Glass Atelier","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
