Like the ideal pearl, Pearl Oud is round and smooth, a cocktail of spicy saffron and black pepper glow with an iridescent powdery iris at the opening. The pearls’ opulent nature is realized at the heart, with a lush bouquet of jasmine, Turkish rose, and ylang-ylang. Pearl Oud reveals a rare dry-down, with an intense animalic blend of Indian oud, precious patchouli, and castoreum. A lot of attention is put into each bottle of KILIAN PARIS refillable perfume to make them real precious objects. The perfume bottle is adorned with a distinctive black lacquer and meticulously engraved on each side, with the representation of the Achilles shield. Made in France.
