Oud Wa Misk

Their perfuming expertise has been passed down through four generations and their quality standards have remained intact. Also, as if to pay tribute to its expertise, Berdoues decided to create the Collection Grand Cru. And it is precisely at the heart of this collection that the perfume Oud Wa Misk was born.

The Collection Grand Cru by Berdoues

A Grand Cru is an exceptional wine that tells the story of the terroir it comes from. It is precisely in this spirit that the Collection Grand Cru by Berdoues was conceived. Its exceptional perfumers traveled the globe in search of the finest raw materials. The juices that make up this collection all come from a very specific terroir and are crafted like rare Colognes. Their ambition is to symbolize a region of the world and to take the consumer on a journey. Thus, each of the Grands Crus is enough to spark a boundless imagination that transcends borders. These are highly original and innovative compositions, blending rare and noble materials. As such, the oud wood used in the perfume Oud Wa Misk displays exceptional quality. Moreover, thanks to a prolonged maceration in the vats of the Berdoues house, it releases a character and a power that are unrivaled. Each of the juices coming from the Collection Grand Cru displays a very strong personality. After all, nothing less would do to deserve the name Grand Cru! Within this collection, Oud Wa Misk is part of the Millésime collection specially dedicated to oud wood. It is accompanied in this by Oud Wa Ward and Oud Wa Vanillia.

The nuanced scent of Oud Wa Misk

Oud Wa Misk is a juice pairing oud wood and musk. It is an intense and charismatic essence containing oud wood from Laos. This is a subversive ingredient whose price sometimes exceeds that of gold. Both rare and precious, it is destined mainly for niche perfumery. It offers a woody, leathery and animalic sillage, with almost pharmaceutical undertones. In this sense, it is offered more particularly to a clientele of knowledgeable perfume consumers. Moreover, its animalic side is here highlighted by the musk. Its sensuality is pushed to its peak and the whole is further enriched with a touch of Somali incense. This further enhances the refinement of Oud Wa Misk's woody sillage. Finally, as if to crown it all, this juice is set within the emblematic bottle of the Collection Grand Cru. On the occasion of the release of Oud Wa Misk, this clean-lined, rectangular vessel is nonetheless adorned with a black and gold design that evokes the world of the Orient.
