From your scent profile
Headspace Oud is a unisex fragrance that sets a fresh opening of pear, pineapple and lemon against a dark base of patchouli, oud and leather.
Skunky's take: Like opening a window: the room feels lighter at once.

What does Oud smell like?
Both longevity and sillage are rated strong, though the number of votes is small. There is no season or occasion information to draw on, so nothing can be said about when it suits best. As a unisex scent it reads open to both men and women.
A fresh, citrusy start softens into fruity sweetness. In the heart, orange blossom, geranium and peony add a floral layer. The base of patchouli, oud and leather settles into a woody, leathery, spicy weight. Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle Noir Epices and Sphinx Night on the Nile have a close profile.
