ExpLOud marks the beginning of a new creative synergy: Laboratorio Olfattivo meets Pierre Guéros. Without hesitation, we entrusted him the mission of giving body to “our vision” of Oud. ExpLOud was born, as an aromatic explosion based on the most precious and luminous of Ouds, with floral notes to lift and twist the characteristic scent of this unique raw material which has already experienced numerous interpretations on the market - Roberto Drago"I had the chance to work with an amazing quality of Oud from Ajmal, located in India. It is the perfect balance of all the facets of oud: smoky, leathery, slightly animalic, vibrant, addictive and powerful. What makes this fragrance perfectly unique is the fresh floral Magnolia - Lilybelle accord in the heart, projecting the fragrance to a brighter, enthusiast and joyful place. Lilybelle® in particular, gives an almost aquatic character to the fragrance, which allows the perfume to breathe. On the other hand, Ambrocenide® and Ambrostar®, provide a unique sharpness, projection and vibrance. These molecules can virtually make this fragrance last forever. Then, I choose a combination of three exceptional woody raw materials: Patchouli heart fraction to convey the darkness of oud, Sandalwood Album to impart an addictive soft and milky sandalwood effect, and finally our precious Vetiver from Madagascar, that possess an earthy, rooty, and slightly smoky impression. At the end, the addition of Oud Boya underlines the woody oriental character of the fragrance." - Pierre Costantin GuérosThe perfumer: Pierre Guéros
