What is oud wood? Oud is a resin produced by the Indonesian Agarwood tree when it is infected by fungus. The resin is an immune response that permeates the wood and creates a complex leathery/sour/woody/salty/ambery-smelling substance used in traditional Arab perfumes and eastern incenses. Oud is an increasingly popular ingredient in western-style fragrances.

What is attar? Attar is the Arabic word for fragrance, and is traditional form of perfume made from distilled florals and resins.

SUSCRIBER REQUEST – My favourite perfumes

Posted on by

Hi everyone : D

This is a response to a request by VivaLaPoetess – and am so sorry that it’s taken me ages to get round to it! But I hope you enjoy it!

I’m not a huge fragrance/perfume fan – I only have a few. I go through phases of wearing perfume every day – then can go for a couple of months without wearing any. I like light and fresh fragrances – nothing too strong.

Do let me know what you think about these choices – or indeed any fragrances you love that are light and refreshing!

Hope you all had a good weekend! : D
