Since 2020, Oud Maximus 2020 Bortnikoff has never stopped surprising. By character, a unisex fragrance drawing from the east, wood, and floral families. Created as part of the 2nd collection. In perfume extract — and that's all it takes to fall in love.
Produced in Thailand, and you can feel it in every note. Oud Maximus 2020 Bortnikoff unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The olfactory structure of Oud Maximus 2020 evolves as a living composition, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The style of Bortnikoff comes through in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Perfume extract sets the depth and body this composition needs.
In the top tier you meet sparkling citrus opening notes: Bergamot, Cardamom, Jasmine Sambac and Orange.
In the middle phase you meet Clove, Frangipani, Magnolia, May rose, Rose and Tonka bean holding a harmonious floral direction.
The internal accord map is shaped by these accords: Animalistic, Balsamic, Citrus and Gourmet forming a compact and readable structure. Additional accords such as Floral, Fruit, Musc and Wood expand the olfactory volume in the background.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Citrus, Spicy, Whiteflower and Floral. The palette also extends to Musk, Animals, Wood and Balsamic.
Overall Oud Maximus 2020 sounds complete from start to finish — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. This is the type of composition best experienced through real development.
