Maison Lancôme Oud Bouquet Eau de Parfum 100 ml – Dark Oud Wrapped in Rose Praline
Discover Oud Bouquet by Maison Lancôme, a rich Unisex Eau de Parfum balancing deep, dark woods with the floral-gourmand softness of rose, praline, and vanilla. Oud wood is blended with smoky guaiac and softer copahu wood before being carved by the distinctive Rose Praline signature.
Lancôme describes Oud Bouquet as an assemblage of three bold wood essences: 20-year-old oud wood, smoky guaiac wood, and softly enveloping copahu wood. Contrasting these woods is the Rose Praline signature, crafted from Centifolia Rose Absolute, vanilla, and a praline accord.
The original Oud Bouquet appeared in 2014 before the fragrance was relaunched in 2016 as part of Maison Lancôme's Les Parfums Grands Crus collection. The Maison Lancôme edition is created by perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin.
Top Notes
The fragrance introduces its character through Centifolia rose and the praline accord.
The rose brings velvety floral richness, while praline adds an indulgent gourmand quality with almond, hazelnut, and caramel-like facets. Together, they form the Rose Praline signature that contrasts with the darker woods.
Heart Note
At the center of the fragrance is oud wood.
Deep, dark, warm, and powerful, oud provides the composition with its central woody character and creates the defining contrast against the sweet praline and soft rose.
Base Notes
The composition deepens with guaiac wood, copahu wood, and vanilla.
Guaiac wood contributes smoky woody depth, while copahu softens the structure with a smoother enveloping quality. Vanilla, part of the Rose Praline signature, enhances the fragrance's warm gourmand character.
Fragrance Notes
Lancôme does not present the Maison Lancôme edition through a conventional top-heart-base pyramid. Instead, the House uses its Art of Assemblage structure:
- Assemblage: Oud Wood Essence, Guaiac Wood Essence, Copahu Wood Essence
- Signature: Rose Praline
- Rose Praline facets: Centifolia Rose Absolute, vanilla, praline accord
