Oud Minerale EDP

About this fragrance

Experience a masterclass in olfactory tension and elemental power with Tom Ford Oud Minérale Eau de Parfum. Striking a brilliant and highly unconventional contrast, this luxury fragrance completely reinvents traditional oud by pulling it out of the warm, amber-soaked desert and throwing it into a cold, churning ocean. It perfectly captures the raw, atmospheric sensation of standing on a rugged, stormy coastline, surrounded by salty sea spray and ancient, weathered driftwood. Crafted for the bold, avant-garde individual, it is the ultimate expression of mysterious, untamed nature. The olfactory journey opens with a bracing, hyper-realistic blast of cold marine notes and coarse sea salt, dynamically spiced with the sharp, crackling bite of pink pepper. This exhilarating introduction instantly awakens the senses, feeling exactly like a gust of wind coming off a turbulent, gray sea. As the sharp aquatic top notes settle, the fragrance reveals its breathtaking, highly textural heart: a dark, smoky accord of premium agarwood (oud) and crisp balsam fir, deeply entangled with the salty, green brine of oceanic seaweed. The true magnetism of Oud Minérale is fully realized in its deeply earthy, skin-hugging dry-down. A robust base of rich styrax, clean musk, and highly sensual ambergris anchors the salty driftwood, providing a remarkably smooth, leathery finish that feels perfectly at home on the skin. Edgy, sophisticated, and entirely unique, it is a statement signature that performs phenomenally in transitional weather, offering a crisp, commanding presence that constantly draws curious, fascinated compliments.
