Composed by exotic ingredients, Intense Oud’s multi-layered olfactory construction is complex and captivating. Incense, woods and le ather are woven around pivotal notes of an Ambery Oud accord and Olibanum oil. Pure and natural Olibanum oil conjures an alluring effect on the top note. A prized and historic perfume-making ingredient from the Middle East, Olibanum oil’s use can be traced back to ancient Egypt. Also known as Frankincense, the oil is sourced from resin in Boswellia trees, collected from the bark in spring and autumn. Only the highest quality resin is steam distilled to produce essential oil for Gucci Intense Oud .
