Why The Most Expensive Ingredient Makes The Best Scent For Eid
With robust scents and a sense of spirituality, Oud is the staple fragrance to wear on Eid.
Oud, derived from agarwood, is indeed a prized ingredient, highly valued for its rich, intoxicating aroma. It holds significance in cultural and religious rituals, particularly among Muslims in the Middle East and Cape Town. What's interesting is how Oud has evolved to be more accessible, offering a range of scents from florals to woods. Its luxurious, enduring fragrance is like a cashmere crewneck - both comforting and opulent. Whether used in incense, perfumes, or other forms, Oud leaves a lasting impression. So, don't dismiss it too quickly - the magic of Oud might just win you over in its many versatile forms.
