A friendly oud with a pleasant hazelnut/praline nuance.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Bois d’Oud suits an unhurried conversation that carries on after the coffee cups have been cleared. Its hazelnut-praline warmth feels welcoming at close quarters, while oud and spice give that sweetness a composed, woody edge rather than the mood of a sugary dessert.
How to wear
The woody, vanilla-softened profile lends itself to cooler days and mild evenings. Start with one or two sprays on skin, allowing the sweeter nuances to settle around the oud. In warm weather or close indoor settings, a lighter application keeps the gourmand warmth from dominating.
Who it’s for
For those drawn to gourmand woods rather than overtly sugary fragrances. Its friendly oud and hazelnut-praline nuance offer an inviting route into the material, particularly for wearers who enjoy vanilla, warm spices and a rounded woody foundation.

The nose
Gian Luca Perris is credited with Bois d’Oud, though his sole authorship of the formula is not established. His role at Perris Monte Carlo spans creative direction and fragrance development, with an emphasis on distinctive raw materials, traditional perfumery and contemporary extraction techniques.
Perris Monte Carlo’s story
Perris Monte Carlo places raw materials and craftsmanship at the centre of its identity. The house combines inherited perfumery knowledge with modern extraction research, treating luxury as the quality of the essence rather than surface display. Its Gold Collection reinterprets materials associated with Middle Eastern perfumery for an international audience.
Bois d'Oud’s concept
Part of the house’s founding repertoire, Bois d’Oud explores oud’s passage between East and West. Its creative narrative connects ancient caravan routes from India to Arabia with modern travel between Dubai and London, surrounding the wood with spices, vanilla and musk to offer a more approachable interpretation.
Extra info
The Gold Collection’s arabesque emblem incorporates four joined P letters. Designed by Gian Luca Perris’s father, Michele, it references his four children. Bois d’Oud’s published note descriptions have also changed since launch, although that alone does not establish a reformulation.
