Ferragamo Oud

Ferragamo Oud presents a bold, darkly sensual profile centered around smoky, leather-bound tobacco with a woody-amber drydown. It opens with a sharp, boozy rum that quickly fades, making way for a potent leather and guaiac wood backbone. The tobacco note is heavily smoked and leather-anchored, evoking the feeling of a worn leather jacket belonging to a heavy smoker, with a sweet-tonka-and-benzoin warmth that gently sweetens the dry profile. While the name suggests oud, the note is mostly absent—instead, a complex wood-smoke accord of guaiac wood, benzoin, and smoked amber gives the impression of oud in the background. The scent evolves slowly, gaining depth and maturity with time, leaning toward a sophisticated, mature masculinity rather than a superficially masculine design. It’s known for its strong initial projection, but lasting long is inconsistent—some wearers report moderate longevity, with the scent fading into a skin scent after a few hours. The perfume is best suited for colder seasons and nighttime use. It appeals most to those who appreciate rich, leather-heavy fragrances with moderate sillage and a smoky, boozed-down elegance.
