Oud Najdia

Lattafa Perfumes' Oud Najdia, from 2022, is a woody oud fragrance with a spiced, aromatic side, meant to be worn by anyone. Musk, amber and a citrus lift fill out the picture.

Citruses open it with a short burst of freshness, quickly joined by lavender and rosemary, which give a herbal, slightly barbershop-like clarity. Cardamom and cinnamon then warm things up, cardamom cool and green, cinnamon sweet and spicy. At the core is agarwood, or oud, bringing its characteristic dark, resinous, slightly animalic wood, supported by cedar and patchouli for dryness and earthiness. Amber and musk soften the finish, leaving a warm, rounded trail.

With its spiced woods and resinous depth, it leans towards autumn and winter and towards evening wear, though the herbal opening makes it less dense than many oud blends. It suits people who want an approachable, aromatic oud, and those who like lavender and spice paired with darker woods.
