La Collezione Oud
Two classic ouds built the traditional way (top, heart, base, no turn), one for daylight, one for after dark.
No turn here, on purpose
La Collezione Epos is built to change on the skin. La Collezione Oud is not, and that is deliberate. These two perfumes unfold the way perfume has always unfolded: top notes first, a heart underneath, a base that stays. Genuine oud sits in both of them, at the base, and defines the whole collection.
This is also the collection the house calls its identity. Where Epos is built for daily wear and Cristallo for refined elegance, Oud is the signature the other two collections are measured against.
Oud of the Ocean
The lighter of the two. It opens on saffron, mint and marine notes (cold and clean) before settling into a heart of rose, geranium and sandalwood. The base is where the collection's name earns itself: oud, tobacco and musk, vetiver and moss, close and grounded rather than loud.
This is the wearable end of oud: refined enough for a formal room, light enough to survive a hot Indian afternoon, built to work across the year rather than one season. At ₹1,499 for 50ml, it is also the collection's easier entry point.
Oud of the Storm
Where Ocean is a bridge, Storm is a destination. It opens spiced and resinous (saffron, mandarin, frankincense) into a heart of rose, patchouli and amber, before closing on oud, leather and musk over vetiver and moss. Heavier, louder, and built for exactly that: winter, after dark, a room where you intend to be noticed.
It is not an everyday perfume, and it does not try to be. At ₹1,899 for 50ml, it costs more than its sibling and asks more of the occasion, too.
Choosing between them
Ocean if you want a genuine oud you can actually wear most days. Storm if you want the version reserved for the nights that matter. Both are 50ml, both carry real oud through the base, and neither has anything to do with a passing trend. This collection is built to define what the house is, not to chase what else is on shelves.
