Loudo Sarah Baker

Loudo by Sarah Baker Perfumes is a complex, transformative gourmand oud that challenges conventional fragrance norms. It opens with a pronounced, animalic oud note that some describe as fecal or leather-like, leading to an initial reaction that many find polarizing. After about 20-30 minutes, this dissolves into a rich, creamy, and deeply sensual fusion of white chocolate, vanilla, and warm amber, creating a soft, sweet, and surprisingly meditative drydown. The fragrance feels alive and evolving—shifting shape, revealing new textures over time, like aged corduroy or weathered leather. While the sillage is moderate to soft, the longevity is impressive and I have observed it to last for hours, particularly in cooler conditions. The scent evokes images of vintage leather jackets, ancient African safaris, and dessert-inspired elegance, blending childish delight with mature sophistication.
