“Green Oudh” is a style of fragrance that balances the traditional deep, smoky, and woody notes of oud with fresh, green, and often citrusy accords. While the exact scent profile varies between different brands and products, the overall impression is of a more vibrant and less heavy interpretation of oud.
Common characteristics of green oudh
- A fresh and zesty opening: Many green oudh scents feature a bright, effervescent opening to counter the depth of the oud. Common top notes include:
- Bergamot
- Lemon
- Other citrus fruits
- Aquatic notes
- An herbal, aromatic heart: The “green” quality comes from middle notes that provide an aromatic, often slightly spicy, lift. Examples include:
- Mint
- Pine
- Geranium
- Green tea
- A woody, earthy base: The underlying note of oud provides a rich, woody, and resinous foundation. This is typically supported by other complementary base notes, such as:
- Cedar
