Giorgio Armani will launch Eau de Nuit Oud, a new fragrance for men, in June. Eau de Nuit Oud is a flanker to 2013's Eau de Nuit, and is described as a fragrance like a black tuxedo.
The notes feature cardamom, pink pepper, bergamot, iris, geranium, rose, oud, saffron and tonka bean.
Giorgio Armani Eau de Nuit Oud will be available in 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum.

Oh for god’s sake…
Exactly
I loooooooooooooooove Oud
No one complains about new roses, new sandalwoods, new ambres, new vanilles, so we should not complain about new ouds too. Eau de Nuit was a good iris, maybe the combo might work very well. I’m curious.
It might be fantastic, but all the same, everyone should feel free to complain about whatever irks them. And if we get 100 new rose flankers this year I will probably start complaining about that (we have had quite a few, actually, and the ouds are definitely slowing way down).
Well, there have been lots of roses lately. Not flankers, but still, many roses. I was not criticizing my friend Dusan, but this puzzles me, why we complain about oud when all others mentioned appear pretty frequently too?
I do think for a couple years, there were more oud fragrances coming out than seemed reasonable or necessary, mostly geared at big spenders in the Middle East. I suppose the chase for the money seemed more cynical to me, as a bystander, than another rose flanker does.
Plus, they’re mostly expensive fragrances (many brands charge more the minute oud is in the name) and they make a big deal about how “rare and exclusive” oud is, but 95% of them are using a relatively cheap synthetic substitute, I guess that gets my back up too. Anyway, it’s slowed way down now.
95% ? You are being generous lol I think we can say the same of iris fragrances as well in terms of marketing claims and what is really used.
Fragrances launches don’t follow the reasonable and necessary, either for oud or for any other theme. So i don’t agree seeing it from this angle.
You are more than welcome to disagree, of course!
