Oud Supreme — a woody signature by Bond No. 9
Oud Supreme is an eau de parfum by Bond No. 9, released in 2025. This unisex fragrance combines spicy, woody and floral notes, creating a modern interpretation of an oud composition.
The release reflects the character of a brand that has been developing its own perfumery vision of New York since 2003: vibrant, multifaceted and distinctive, yet without any desire to follow obvious formulas.
Oud Supreme was created by Loris Rame and Miroslav Petkov.
Their approach presents oud not as an exclusively dense and smoky material, but as the central detail of an elegant ensemble, where fruity freshness, spicy dryness and soft floral nuances gradually give way to balsamic depth.
Fragrance character and development
Oud Supreme opens with a lively, sparkling effect: the citrusy freshness of lemon meets juicy blackcurrant and piquant pink pepper.
As the composition unfolds, it becomes more composed and dry, while the floral heart of rose and geranium gains an unusual carrot-seed nuance.
This allows the fragrance to maintain a balance between softness and character.
The final stage is built around oud, patchouli, benzoin and gurjun balsam.
Here, the woody accord is framed by resinous and subtly sweet nuances, so the base feels warm, smooth and elegant.
Oud Supreme is ideal for those seeking a niche oud fragrance but preferring an airier, more versatile expression over dense, heavy oriental richness.
Wearability and dosage
Oud Supreme is positioned as a fragrance for women and men.
Its sillage is considered soft: the composition stays close to the skin and is especially well suited to the office, relaxed city walks, meetings and situations when you want a distinctive yet unobtrusive perfume accent.
For application to the skin, it is best to step into the fragrance cloud so that the eau de parfum settles softly and evenly.
One or two sprays are sufficient on clothing — enough to highlight the woody-balsamic character without overwhelming the surrounding space.
Oud Supreme unfolds at its best in cool spring weather, autumn and mild winter, although its moderate intensity makes it suitable for wearing almost year-round.
The fragrance within the brand’s style
Bond No. 9 is known for its attention to imagery, detail and the emotional side of perfumery.
Oud Supreme continues this direction, offering not simply an introduction to oud, but a carefully constructed olfactory story — from its fruity-spicy opening to its warm, resinous base.
It is an excellent choice for anyone looking to add a woody unisex release with an individual character and discreet sillage to their collection.
