Fragrance character
Maksim Perfume Vanilla Oud is a rich unisex fragrance in Parfum (Extrait) concentration, released in 2025.
The composition was created by perfumer Maksim Bortnikov for Maksim Perfume, a Thai fragrance brand.
The name Vanilla Oud makes it clear from the start that the focus is on the striking duo of creamy vanilla and deep oud.
The fragrance combines balsamic, floral and woody facets, but it is far more than a simple sweet composition.
Its character is built on contrasts: soft gourmand warmth meets spicy sparkle, expressive white florals and resinous woody depth.
As a result, Vanilla Oud comes across as a striking, dense and charismatic perfume with a distinct oriental accent.
Character and development
On the skin, Vanilla Oud unfolds with volume and gradually, moving from a bright spicy-citrusy impression to a rounder, more sensual and intense scent.
In the heart, the composition becomes warmer and creamier, while the drydown highlights the fragrance’s resinous-woody side.
Thanks to its extrait concentration, this perfume is intended for those who enjoy expressive formulas and a noticeable fragrance presence.
Its stated sillage is very strong, so Vanilla Oud is especially well suited to cool weather, evening outings, formal occasions and situations where a memorable perfume statement is appropriate.
In summer and indoors, it should be worn with particular restraint, taking into account your own perception and the reactions of those around you.
Precise dosage recommendations for applying it to skin and clothing are not provided, so it is best to start with a minimal amount and intensify the scent if necessary.
Who will enjoy Vanilla Oud
This is a versatile fragrance for women and men who appreciate dense oriental compositions, vanilla accords and expressive oud.
It does not aim to be discreet or strictly casual: Vanilla Oud creates a warm, luxurious and slightly mysterious cloud around the wearer.
It pairs especially well with evening looks, textured fabrics and an autumn-winter mood.

Perfume profile
Vanilla, oud, balsamic resins and white flowers create Vanilla Oud’s distinctive silhouette, in which gourmand softness does not compete with woody strength but instead accentuates it.
This release demonstrates Maksim Perfume’s commitment to expressive, multifaceted perfumery with a strong character and considerable potential for discussion among niche fragrance enthusiasts.
