Desert Oud & Obsidian Passion

Both list oud, vanilla and amber, which gives the two layers a shared thread rather than two competing ideas. Obsidian Passion adds a fruity & playful side through passionfruit and fruity notes, which Desert Oud does not list.

A scent-profile suggestion based on recorded notes and how they typically behave, not a combination Beautys has tested on skin. Try it on your wrists first.

What it may smell like

On paper, expect an opening of cardamom, sichuan pepper and passionfruit that settles towards vanilla, vetiver and tonka bean. How it develops depends on your skin, the number of sprays and the weather.

How to apply

Apply Desert Oud first, as the richer base, to pulse points. Let it settle for a minute, then add one or two sprays of Obsidian Passion over the top. Start with fewer sprays than you would wear of one perfume: two extraits together can be intense.
