Forbidden Words Bombay Gourmand from the Indian house Sasva, composed by Luca Maffei in 2024, is a sweet woody gourmand with caramel, orange and oud. Everyone who describes it calls it gourmand and woody, most also notice citrus, and a minority mention flowers and resin.
Sweet orange and orange give the opening a juicy, sunny brightness, while davana adds a boozy, fruity warmth. The heart is floral and soft, with rose bringing a velvety note and almond blossom a delicate, slightly nutty sweetness. Caramel brings a rich, toffee-like sweetness that gives the scent its gourmand core. The base is dark and woody: agarwood adds a resinous depth, cypriol a smoky, earthy note, labdanum an ambery resin, and patchouli, cedar and vanilla an earthy, dry and creamy finish.
Unisex in spirit, it suits people who like sweet ouds with a fruity, festive feel. The profile points to autumn and winter, evenings and celebrations. Those who enjoy caramel-orange gourmands with a smoky oud base should find it warm and inviting.
