FRAGRANCE FAMILY: WOODY FLORAL
Swedish design powerhouse Agonist celebrates 10 years of perfume creation by the ‘scent-sational’ cult duo of Christine and Niclas Lydeen with this transporting fragrance…
No.10 White Oud has at its heart their true Nordic spirit and is Agonist’s so-clever interpretation of what a ‘Nordic oudh’ would smell like. No.10 White Oud is a complex composition of light and dark, evoking a mysteriously ‘oudh-y’ sensation – but in reality, without adding oudh to the composition. And it brilliantly conveys the light and crisp feeling of the Scandinavian North…
The essence of No.10 White Oud is captured – appropriately, for this ‘birthday’ – by the blend of 10 luxurious ingredients. Floral top notes of ylang ylang and lily of the valley slowly transcend into a heart of May rose, violet and patchouli. The ‘whiteness’ of the fragrance is interpreted at the base via tonka bean, a white musk accord, woody amber, cypriol and Ambramone.
It’s a true celebration of the senses – and a glorious way to celebrate their 10-years anniversary…
