This one hits differently. What stands out immediately is the contrast: a vivid, almost electric passion fruit (maracuja) note that feels tart, juicy, and alive - not sweet in a polite way, but sharp and mouth-watering. It creates tension right away, because underneath it you sense the oud waiting, dark and resinous, adding gravity without turning animalic or harsh. As the fragrance develops, that fruity brightness doesn’t disappear - it’s softened and shaped by subtle florals and spice, giving it dimension rather than chaos. The oud becomes more present here: smoky, smooth, and slightly leathery, acting as an anchor so the fruit never turns playful or trivial. In the base, amber, vanilla, and woods take over, rounding everything into a warm, velvety finish. The sweetness calms down, the oud feels deeper and more grounded, and the whole composition becomes surprisingly elegant after such a bold start. What I love is the push and pull. Fresh versus dark. Juicy versus dense. Oud Maracuja feels daring but controlled - not an easy crowd-pleaser, but incredibly satisfying if you like contrast and personality in your fragrances. It keeps your attention all the way through.
