His Majesty The Oud: A Tribute to Regal Elegance
Created by the master perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin, His Majesty The Oud eau de parfum is a tribute to the regal charisma and legendary status of King Faisal I. Known for his strategic brilliance, unwavering charm, and significant role in Arabian history as a confidante of Gertrude Bell and an ally of Lawrence of Arabia, Faisal’s essence is captured in this audacious fragrance.
Of princely Bedouin heritage, King Faisal embodied a perfect blend of nobility and prowess. His ability to fight, charm, and negotiate with unparalleled brilliance is reflected in the commanding presence of this perfume. His Majesty The Oud is an olfactory narrative of his legacy, combining fierce elegance with timeless allure.
The fragrance opens with the intense smokiness of natural oud essence sourced from Laos, one of the most exclusive and rare oud qualities available. This powerful note is expertly balanced with the intricate and sophisticated lapsang souchong tea accord. This fusion creates an aromatic introduction that is both bold and captivating.
The top notes reveal a unique combination of smoky and leathery nuances, reminiscent of the saddles of Arabian stallions. The lapsang souchong accord, enriched with cade oil and mate absolute, mingles with the spicy warmth of clove, setting the stage for an exceptional olfactory journey. As the fragrance develops, the heart unveils a sumptuous blend of leather, interwoven with the robust woodiness of cedarwood and sandalwood, creating a core that is both richly textured and deeply evocative.
The base notes provide a hypnotic dry-down, where the spicy and animalic undertones of styrax blend harmoniously with the sweet warmth of vanilla and the purity of oud extract. This final touch rounds out the fragrance, bestowing it with an intensely masculine refinement and a daring olfactive conception. The resulting scent is as focused and penetrating as the renowned desert gaze of King Faisal himself.
His Majesty The Oud is more than a fragrance; it is an epic tale of leadership, elegance, and resilience. It captures the spirit of a legendary figure in Arabian history, offering a sensory experience that is both regal and profoundly evocative.
