Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud Satin Mood

Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud Satin Mood is a 2015 unisex Eau de Parfum that wraps precious oud in rose and vanilla like a jewel nestled in satin. This is one of the most beautiful oud fragrances ever created, taking an ingredient that can often feel harsh or challenging and presenting it with such grace and warmth that it becomes utterly mesmerizing.

It is sweet, rosy, and luxuriously smooth. The opening features Bulgarian rose, violet, and strawberry.

Bulgarian rose sets the romantic tone with its deep, jammy, rich floral character. Violet adds a powdery softness.

Strawberry contributes a surprising, slightly sweet fruitiness that gives the opening a playful quality. Together they create a beautiful, feminine entrance.

The heart is centered on Turkish rose, continuing and deepening the rose theme. Turkish rose brings a spicier, slightly more austere rose character that complements the sweeter Bulgarian rose.

The violet continues its powdery presence, while oud begins to emerge, adding its distinctive smoky, woody depth beneath the flowers. The base is where Oud Satin Mood truly earns its name with agarwood, vanilla, benzoin, amber, cedar, and caramel.

The oud is refined and smooth, presented in its most accessible form. Vanilla and caramel add gourmand sweetness.

Benzoin contributes warm, balsamic depth. Amber provides golden warmth.

Cedar adds a touch of woody structure. Together they create a base that is satin-smooth and deeply comforting.

Oud Satin Mood is perfect for fall and winter, ideal for evening events, romantic occasions, and special moments. It projects beautifully and lasts impressively.

This is the fragrance that converts people who think they do not like oud.
