Oud Glacial

Oud Glacial, the new contrasted fragrance from Réminiscence. It was right in the middle of the 1970s that the house Reminiscence made a name for itself in perfumery circles. Indeed, its fragrance Patchouli was one of the great olfactory companions of the hippie movement. Since then, Reminiscence has showcased other raw materials in fragrances built on fairly short formulas, putting one or two ingredients in the spotlight.

The beautiful duality of the fragrance Oud Glacial

Oud Glacial by Reminiscence is a striking fragrance, one that does not go unnoticed and does not resemble any other scent. Indeed, it rests on a striking contrast, between warm and cold. Freshness appears from the top notes, in the presence of mint, here paired with saffron as well as almond. Then, frosted mint appears again in its heart. It gains in romance and sensuality thanks to a trio of flowers. Oud Glacial by Reminiscence notably contains rose, violet and lily of the valley. This thoroughly spring-like freshness nonetheless warms up in its base. This is when oud wood makes its appearance, alongside patchouli and musk. Oud Glacial by Reminiscence is a convincing fragrance, with excellent longevity. If its contrast is surprising, it must be noted that it works wonderfully!

Reminiscence chooses to showcase one of the noblest ingredients on the planet

As the name of this fragrance suggests, Oud Glacial by Reminiscence is built essentially around oud wood. Long used for medicinal and spiritual purposes, oud wood made its way into perfumery only very recently. To this day, it is one of the most sought-after ingredients among perfumers, but also one of the most expensive. Sold at a very high price, it is a resin produced by a tropical tree when it becomes infected by a fungus. If it is so appealing, it is simply because oud wood has no equal when it comes to bringing richness to the fragrances that contain it. It is a very subtle ingredient, reserved for fine perfumery.

Oud Glacial comes in a neutral, unisex bottle

If the scent of Oud Glacial by Reminiscence does not go unnoticed, its bottle, on the other hand, remains fairly understated. This choice is by no means incidental... Thus, Oud Glacial by Reminiscence suits both women and men equally well. Its neutral color gives nothing away about the fragrance it contains. In this way, Reminiscence leaves plenty of room for surprise. Moreover, this gives it a timeless style. With such a look, Oud Glacial by Reminiscence can easily win over all generations.
