Top Notes: Citrus Notes

Heart Notes: Rose de Mai, Jasmin de Grasse, Violet, Pear, Peach

Base Notes: Clove, Saffron, Patchouli, Cedarwood, Casmir Wood, Sandalwood, Oud, Candyfloss Accord, Benzoin, Vanilla, Orris Sur Cèdre, Orris, Styrax, Birch, Labdanum, Ambergris, Musk

Qatar Aoud moves from polished citrus into rose, jasmine, violet, pear, and peach before a much denser saffron-and-oud base takes over. Candyfloss, benzoin, vanilla, orris, and resins soften the woods with a distinctive sweet texture while clove, birch, patchouli, and labdanum keep the base dark and structured. Ambergris and musk extend the finish. The result is opulent and playful at once, balancing fruit and gourmand sweetness against oud, spice, resins, and woods.

Summary

Qatar Aoud is an opulent Parfum that combines polished oud with bright citrus, florals, juicy fruit, saffron, woods, resins, and an unusually playful candyfloss sweetness. Rose, jasmine, violet, pear, and peach soften the transition into the darker base. Clove, saffron, oud, cedarwood, sandalwood, benzoin, vanilla, orris, labdanum, ambergris, and musk then give the fragrance substantial depth. The result is fruity, sweet-spicy, and woody, suited to shoppers who want oud with a pronounced gourmand accent rather than a dry traditional structure.

About the Brand

Qatar Aoud represents the house’s Gulf-inspired sweet oud vocabulary. Citrus, rose, jasmine, violet, pear, peach, saffron, patchouli, sandalwood, oud, candyfloss, benzoin, vanilla, orris, resins, ambergris, and musk create a progression from brightness into fruit, sweetness, spice, and dark woods. The composition reflects Roja Parfums’ preference for opulence and material complexity.
