Between light and shadow, the true beauty of the most precious wood of all.It is said to be the scent of paradise. Emblematic of olfactory culture in the Middle East, oud is a journey unto itself, an immobile escape through time and space. A raw material of such depth and so many facets that it seems to contain all the others. Woody notes, deep as eternity, conceal animalistic, ambery and spicy facets. To glorify the raw beauty of a natural wonder, Master Perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud dared take a radical stand, composing a fragrance of absolute minimalism. Using just three ingredients, he created a kind of bespoke showcase for a rare essence of oud assam in an immoderate dose of 10% of the formula. Steeped in the luminous softness of a cocoon of white musks, the ‘Wood of the Gods’ reveals all the richness of its dark, powerful and eternally mysterious character.WHY DO WE SELL DECANTS?
Because there are so many fragrances and so little time! We sell samples which are a wonderful way to try many fragrances before deciding on the full bottle you know you will love. Samples offer the ability to wear perfume for a week or more and decide if that fragrance is right for you. Once you sample fragrances and find ones that you love, you can buy a full bottle from another E-tailer, department store or perfume boutique.
WHAT YOU RECEIVE: You pick the scent and the size, then we decant from the original bottle or vessel into a brand new sterile glass spray (please note 1ml samples are not sprays). We label each decant and carefully package to prevent leakage. To assure you that you get the exact amount listed for each decant bottle, we use medical measuring devices so that each bottle is filled the exact amount. Please note, there is air space left at the top of the bottles which is important for pressurization in atomizers. Air space does not mean you received less than the amount listed. Please understand before purchasing, you will NOT receive an original bottle of perfume from the manufacturer. However, you WILL receive a re-packaged, unaltered, freshly and expertly hand-decanted scent.
DECANTING PROCESS: Each vessel is hand decanted after payment and moments before shipping from our bottles of authentic fragrances. We use sterile medical pipettes designated for each fragrance, or the perfume is sprayed or poured directly from the original bottle.
