Our New Obsession: The House of Oud
Share
Where East Meets West, in a Fragrant Fusion
Founded in 2016 through the creative partnership of Italian perfumer Andrea Casotti and Jakarta-based oud collector Mohammed Abu Nashi, The House of Oud is where Italian craftsmanship meets the ancient art of Indonesian oud. This collaboration bridges continents, combining the refined visual sensibility of Italy with the deep-rooted traditions of Middle Eastern perfumery.
What Sets Them Apart
Scents You’ve Never Imagined
The House of Oud invites you into an entirely new world of fragrance, one that defies expectation. These are not your everyday perfumes. Each scent is complex, layered, and unlike anything you’ve experienced before. They are composed with precision and emotion, designed to spark curiosity and leave a lasting impression. If you think you’ve smelled it all, this collection will change your mind.
Storytelling Through Scent
Each fragrance is a chapter in a story. Sometimes introspective, sometimes vibrant, but always intentional. From tobacco and oud to florals, spices, and fruit, the notes unfold like a narrative, revealing something new with every wear. These aren’t just perfumes, they are sensory experiences that invite you to connect with memory, mood, and meaning.
Materials and Craftsmanship
The House of Oud is committed to using high-quality, ethically sourced oud, blended with exceptional raw ingredients from around the world. The artistry doesn’t stop at the scent. Every bottle is hand-painted in Italy, shaped like a sculptural egg that lies gently on its side. No two are the same, making each piece a collectible work of art as unique as the fragrance inside.
Signature Scents You’ll Love
White Pearl
Polished and radiant, White Pearl is a luminous blend of creamy florals and soft woods. It opens with bright citrus and pink pepper, unfolds into elegant rose and ylang-ylang, and settles on a velvety base of vanilla, ambroxan, and white musk. The oud here is sheer and subtle, adding depth without dominating. Think silk sheets, soft light, and understated luxury.
Ruby Red
Ruby Red is confident, sparkling, and addictive. Bursting with juicy blood orange and pink pepper, it quickly warms into ginger, cinnamon, and exotic florals. Oud anchors the composition but lets the fruits and spice shine. It's bold without being heavy, flirtatious but grounded. Think of it as a crimson dress with a sharp heel — striking but effortless.
Dates Delight
This is comfort dressed in gold. Dates Delight wraps rich dates and caramel in a cloud of tonka bean, vanilla, and cinnamon. Beneath the sweetness lies a soft hum of labdanum and benzoin, giving it a resinous, ambery warmth. It’s plush, decadent, and skin-hugging. Like dessert after midnight — indulgent, but never too much.
Wabisabi
Now this is unexpected. Wabisabi opens with a sharp flash of wasabi and citrus that wakes up the senses, before softening into hinoki wood, green tea, and floral nuances. There’s a gentle saltiness that mimics skin after a walk by the sea. It’s minimal yet eccentric, clean but never sterile. A fragrance about restraint, imperfection, and beautiful contradictions — just like its name.
