Oud: The Timeless Heart of Oud Alhayat Perfumes

When you think of luxury and tradition wrapped into one, few ingredients can match the mystique and richness of oud. Known as the “liquid gold” of perfumery, oud has enchanted cultures for centuries, and it’s the soul of every fragrance crafted by Oud Alhayat Perfumes.

What is Oud?

Oud is a rare resinous wood derived from the heartwood of the agarwood tree, found mainly in Southeast Asia. When the tree becomes infected with a particular mold, it produces a dark, aromatic resin as a defense mechanism. This resin is harvested and transformed into oud oil—a precious and complex scent treasured in perfumery.

A Fragrance Steeped in History

The use of oud dates back thousands of years, especially in Middle Eastern, Indian, and Southeast Asian cultures. It was once reserved exclusively for royalty and nobility, symbolizing wealth, spirituality, and power. Oud was used in religious ceremonies, traditional medicine, and as a sign of prestige.
