Echoing life’s most vivid and celebrated experiences shaped by moments of tribulation and strength, Silver Oud is an olfactive depiction of Stendhal’s 19th-century French novel, The Red and the Black, and its intelligent and ambitious protagonist, Julien Sorel. Paying tribute to the House’s signature storytelling tradition, Cécile Zarokian brings Silver Oud to life in a woody ambery Eau de Parfum that showcases the most precious oud in all its glory.
Inspired by the themes expressed in The Red and the Black, particularly the notions of Confusion, Passion and Destruction, Silver Oud is a manifestation of the tension between idealism and realism, the contradiction between thinking and feeling, and the power of mimetic desire.
Opening with patchouli molecular distillation, cypriol oil, and Virginia cedar oil, confusion lies in the lack of an expected top note. Instead, a wide variety of woods come to the fore, announcing a deep evolution. At the heart of the creation, an exquisitely rich quality oud assam oil dances in unison with a deep vanilla (Madagascar) absolute as a beautiful duo of contrasts. Meanwhile, ambrarome, birch oil, guaiac wood oil, and castoreum leave dark sillage imprints on the skin, the smoky woods blending together in an endless finale.
Amouage fragrances have reflected the wonderful heritage and mastery of perfume creation for over 30 years. The brand is renowned for creating some of the world’s most finely crafted and exotic fragrances.
The French perfumer Guy Robert created the first fragrance in the collection in 1983. Exceptionally talented and steeped in the traditions of fine French perfumery, Robert embraced the gifts of the Magi to create an exotic and masterful fragrance based on gold, frankincense and myrrh. Using these storied and valuable materials, he created a composition that included over one hundred natural ingredients from around the world. The result was Gold by Amouage, an exquisite fragrance for the ages that stands as a masterpiece to the art of fine perfumery.
Since the launch of Gold, Amouage has developed into a contemporary and global luxury brand holding strong to the high standards set from the beginning. Under the creative direction of Christopher Chong, the brand has continued to create trendsetting fragrances of the highest quality through collaboration with the finest perfumers available from Grasse, Paris, New York and Geneva.
