Composition of the fragrance:
Fresh juniper berry and bergamot interact with the vibrant spice of pink pepper, cardamom and coriander seeds. Oudh oil gains a greener, more mysterious dimension from black hemlock. Vetiver, cedar and sandalwood contribute layers of dry and creamy wood, rounded by musk.
Story of the fragrance:
Before creating the scent, perfumer Linda Pilkington travelled to Laos in search of the agar tree responsible for oudh. Her research continued in Bangkok’s Nana district, where she saw the oil produced by steam distillation. This encounter with a material she considered a treasure of perfumery shaped Ormonde Man and its unconventional character. The bottle is designed to be refillable, while recyclable materials and biodegradable cellophane used in the packaging support the brand’s environmental aims.
