The world first encountered True Oud by Carolina Herrera in 2022. A unisex fragrance rooted in the east and wood families. Perfumer Jordi Fernandez is the author behind this composition. From the Herrera Confidential collection; released as eau de parfum.
Produced in the United States, and you can feel it in every note. True Oud Carolina Herrera — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
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
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate 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 scent of True Oud evolves as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves with precision and warmth. The creative approach of Carolina Herrera is clear in details that define the fragrance identity. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum supports the depth and body this composition needs.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Floral, Fruit, Spicy and Whiteflower. The framework further includes Balsamic, Wood, Musk and Gourmet. At family level the fragrance belongs to East and Wood.
From the first breath you sense petal-airy first notes: Freesia, Olives, Osmanthus and Saffron. Exactly these 4 notes shape an elegant floral wave that is impossible to miss.
At the core of development you detect Jasmine, Myrrh and Oud carrying a sensual jasmine direction. At drydown level the structure settles through Akigalawood, Patchouli, Sandalwood and musk, reinforcing a deep woody trail.
The profile is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
Overall True Oud sounds complete from start to finish — the first stage creates momentum, the central phase adds depth, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best experienced on skin.
