Description
Inspired by the mythical heart of the sacred oud tree, Soul of Oud explores the powerful magnetism of oud in its purest expression. Spiced notes open with intensity, softened by velvety cashmeran. At the heart, deep red roses merge with commanding oud, while vetiver weaves through the composition, adding depth and movement.

Additional Information
Soul of Oud is part of the My Ouds Collection, this fragrance reflects Ramon Monegal’s deeply personal journey into the world of oud. Revered as one of the rarest and most sacred materials in perfumery, oud is celebrated for its powerful aroma and ritual significance. Rather than choosing a single origin, Monegal created his own interpretation—Mon Oud—transforming the ingredient into a true signature.
Mood: Oud & Power / Artistic & Niche. This is "Oud in its purest, most spiritual form." It defines the Oud & Power category by utilizing a deeply resonant, woody structure that feels ancient and grounded. Its Artistic & Niche appeal lies in the absence of "gourmand" fluff; instead, it focuses on the raw beauty of Birch, Cedar, and Oud, creating a dry, smoky majesty that is for the serious collector.
Occasion: Special Occasions / Night Out. Soul of Oud is a fragrance of high protocol and ceremony. Its imposing presence makes it the definitive choice for Special Occasions, specifically formal winter events or evening galas. For a Night Out, it projects a mysterious, dark elegance that commands respect and marks the wearer as someone of substance and authority.
Strength & Projection: Beast Mode. This is an uncompromisingly powerful Eau de Parfum. It is a Beast Mode performer, offering massive sillage and a persistence that often exceeds 12+ hours. The heavy molecular bond of Amber, Patchouli, and Musk in the base ensures the woody trail remains "alive" and potent long after the first application.

The Connoisseur’s Comparison: "For those who admire the spiritual, spicy intensity of Initio’s Oud for Greatness or the smoky, authoritative depth of Atkinsons' His Majesty The Oud, Soul of Oud offers a more 'ancestral' and woody alternative. It takes the dark rose and oud DNA of Alhambra Oud and strips away the sweetness, resulting in a fragrance that is drier, smokier, and more focused on the raw, resinous power of the forest."

Perfumer: Ramon Monegal
"I imagined wild Oud wood, with birch leaves and osmanthus flowers, planted on a damp earth of musk, nourished with chocolate savia and strongly sustained by vetiver roots. Its soul seems like the most powerful wood that has ever existed and seems capable of being the protagonist in any story. Legendary fable, myth of seduction, chimera and reality. Quintessence of Oud!" Ramon Monegal
