Oud Immortel - Eau de Parfum by Byredo is a woody scent, underscored by the smoky aromas of patchouli and papyrus. Tobacco leaves and moss lend depth and complexity to the composition, while incense and rosewood emanate an elegant, amber-like echo. When the once light heartwood of the Aquilaria tree is attacked by a certain type of mould, it defends itself by saturating its core with a dark, highly fragrant resin. This dark wood, oud or agarwood has a complex scent that resembles few or no other natural ingredients.

Behind the Fragrance

Oud Immortel and Accord Oud are both created around the precious oud, a type of exotic wood used in traditional incense and perfume. Its existence is recorded in one of the oldest written texts in the world, the Indian Sanskrit Vedas, and its scent has acquired both sensual and spiritual significance. When the once light-colored heartwood of the Aquilaria tree is attacked by a certain type of mold, it defends itself by saturating its core with a dark, strongly scented resin. This dark wood, oud or agarwood, has a complex scent that resembles few or no other natural ingredients. Its distinctive and intense character, when combined with other substances, brings out specific facets. The peculiarity of this raw material is interpreted in the most diverse and enchanting ways in the two fragrances.

Byredo

Byredo was founded in 2006 by Ben Gorham in Stockholm with an ambition to translate memories and emotions into the form of everyday products. Born to an Indian mother and a Canadian father, Ben grew up in Toronto, New York and Stockholm. He graduated from the Stockholm art school with a degree in fine arts, but a chance meeting with perfumer Pierre Wulff convinced him that he'd rather create fragrances than paintings. As an outsider in the beauty industry, he is somewhat of an anomaly and has created a unique position in the market for his personal style and connection to fashion and art. In contrast to the typical Scandinavian esthetics, Byredo carries clear ethnic influences from Ben’s Indian background with strong ties to creativity, art and lifestyle. Byredo's approach to letting creations be led by emotion is expressed through a full and limitless brand universe. Each product is developed using the highest quality materials available and design details. According to Ben, creativity enables us to develop timeless products, both meaningful and inspirational, to people and their lives. It is through this fundamental idea that Byredo reinvents the world of luxury.
