mesOUD Sumbawa Black Oud is a unisex perfume oil created for those who appreciate expressive woody compositions with a distinctive oriental accent.
The fragrance belongs to the woody family and is built around oud—a rich, resinous and deep note traditionally associated with luxury, warmth and a striking presence.
The mesOUD brand comes from Turkey and specializes in unisex fragrances in perfume oil, perfume and extract concentrations.
Sumbawa Black Oud fits this concept perfectly: the composition does not seek to emphasize exclusively feminine or masculine facets, but unfolds individually depending on the skin, temperature and amount applied.
The main note of Sumbawa Black Oud is oud.
Here, it is not a minor detail but the central image of the entire composition, making the fragrance especially appealing to fans of deep woody accords without excessive sweetness or complex floral layering.
The oil texture is usually perceived close to the skin, but in this case the stated sillage is very strong.
This means that Sumbawa Black Oud can make a noticeable impression in a space, so it is best worn consciously: it is suitable wherever rich, warm and recognizable oriental notes are welcome.
Precise recommendations for applying Sumbawa Black Oud to the skin and clothing are not provided in the database.
When getting to know the fragrance, it is sensible to start with a minimal amount and assess how the oud develops on your skin, gradually finding a comfortable intensity.
Because of its very strong sillage, the fragrance can be especially striking in cool weather, in the evening and in spacious rooms.
For the office, small rooms and hot days, a more restrained application is preferable, so that the dense woody accord remains stylish without becoming overly assertive.
This unisex fragrance will suit those looking not for a neutral everyday background, but for an expressive perfumery statement.
It may appeal to lovers of oud, resinous woody nuances and compositions with a pronounced presence that are easy to recognize among softer, more transparent fragrances.
The year of release, perfumer’s name, membership in a specific collection and other concentrations of this release are not specified.
Therefore, Sumbawa Black Oud is best considered primarily through its confirmed characteristics: an oil concentration, a woody family, a unisex positioning and very strong sillage.
For further exploration of rich oriental compositions, consider Swiss Arabian Kalimat, as well as Al Musbah Royal Oud and Nabeel Ghanati.
They will help you compare different interpretations of the woody-oriental direction and understand how closely the expressive style of Sumbawa Black Oud suits you.
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 oil-based perfume composition with a soft opening, high durability, and an intimate 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 database does not list separate top, middle, and base notes for Sumbawa Black Oud.
The only declared note in the composition is oud, so it is not possible to accurately reconstruct a classic fragrance pyramid.
Oud belongs to the woody note family and shapes the fragrance’s main character.
Its scent is perceived as deep, rich, and expressive, while the oil concentration emphasizes the composition’s density.
In Sumbawa Black Oud, oud is listed as a blended note without being assigned to specific stages of development.
That is why the fragrance is best described as a cohesive woody accord rather than a sequence of precisely defined notes.
The full composition and additional accents are not disclosed in the available data.
Nevertheless, oud’s central role and the fragrance’s exceptionally powerful sillage make its character clear from the very first encounter.
