Raspberry Oud The Momer — a fruity-woody accent
The Momer Raspberry Oud is a niche fragrance from the UAE, released in 2025.
This unisex composition in Parfum (Extrait) concentration was created for those who love expressive fragrances with a distinctive character and rich projection.
The Momer draws on the rich tradition of Eastern perfumery while presenting it in a modern way: in Raspberry Oud, exotic passion fruit and juicy raspberry meet spices, dry woody nuances and deep oud.
As a result, the fragrance smells less like a simple sweet fruity composition and more like a multilayered olfactory accord, contrasting freshness, warmth and resinous depth.
How the fragrance unfolds
Raspberry Oud opens with passion fruit, nutmeg and saffron.
The fruity nuance of passion fruit adds brightness and a gentle tang, nutmeg creates spicy volume, while saffron brings a dry, warm and slightly honeyed facet.
In the heart, the fragrance becomes softer and more rounded: lavender refreshes the composition, raspberry adds a velvety fruity sweetness, and oud gives the accord density and a recognizably Eastern character.
The raspberry accent is especially prominent, balancing juicy vibrancy with the dark, almost resinous mood of the woody notes.
The final stage of the composition is deep and warm. Patchouli adds an earthy dryness, rosewood lends a smooth woody nuance, and musk makes the trail more cohesive and long-lasting.
Thanks to this development, the fragrance gradually moves from a bright fruity-spicy opening to a rich woody base.
Character and sillage
Raspberry Oud is a fruity-woody fragrance complemented by green, musky and spicy nuances.
Its character can be described as intense, Eastern and sensual: it combines the juicy energy of berries, the cool herbaceousness of lavender and the dark, noble depth of oud.
The fragrance has very strong sillage, making it especially suitable for evenings, cool weather and occasions when you want to leave a striking impression.
For the office or a small space, it is best to start with a minimal number of sprays and assess how it develops on the skin after a few minutes.
The perfumer and its place in the brand's collection
The composition was created by Shadi Samra.
His work on Raspberry Oud is built around an expressive juxtaposition of fruits, spices and dark woody materials, so the fragrance feels multidimensional and changes throughout wear.
No collection or other concentrations are listed for Raspberry Oud, so this release should be viewed as a standalone interpretation of the theme of raspberry and oud.
Fragrances worth exploring in a similar direction include The Spirit of Dubai Durra, MGO Duftmanufaktur Outback and Balmaso Crystal Gold.
