Description
Immerse yourself in the world of high fashion with Elie Saab La Collection Essence No. 4 Oud Eau de Parfum. Launched in 2014 as an exclusive pillar of Elie Saab's "couture" fragrance line, La Collection des Essences, this masterful creation was composed in collaboration with legendary perfumer Francis Kurkdjian. Transcending traditional gender boundaries, Essence No. 4 Oud is a sophisticated statement of individuality, marrying timeless Middle Eastern olfactory heritage with contemporary European elegance.
Essence No. 4 Oud is a compelling, multi-faceted journey that masterfully balances raw power with architectural grace. The fragrance commands attention upon the first spray, opening with an intense, sharp surge of black pepper, crisp florals, and a majestic hint of precious oud. As the initial spice settles, a fresh aromatic heart reveals a refined bouquet of jasmine, rose, and earthy patchouli, warmed by the resinous, golden sweetness of benzoin. The composition ultimately grounds itself in an incredibly long-lasting base of rich agarwood, creamy sandalwood, smooth vanilla, and warm amber, leaving a captivating aura that remains deeply sophisticated without ever overwhelming the senses.
