Scent Description:

The fragrance opens with a crisp and lively burst of green notes, bergamot and orange absolute, softened by aldehydes and enriched with warming cardamom — giving a fresh yet refined start. The heart shifts into a lush floral-spice combination: rose takes centre stage, supported by magnolia and orchid while pimento, bay leaf and cinnamon provide spicy intrigue. In the base, ambergris and labdanum lend a velvety resinous richness, vetiver brings a subtle earthy counterpoint, musk adds depth, and the hint of oudh gives a noble woody edge without becoming overwhelmingly dark. Overall, the scent sits firmly in the amber-woody-floral family, offering a sophisticated complexity rather than a straightforward bold oudh. The blend is smooth and cohesive, with no single note dominating.

Performance Details:

• Longevity: 8/10 – The fragrance holds well through the day on many wearers, often 8+ hours.

• Sillage: 6/10 – The early phase shows more presence; after a while it becomes friendlier to closer-space wear.

• Projection: 5/10 – While noticeable initially, it typically settles into a moderate trail.

Ormonde Jayne’s Nawab of Oudh Intensivo presents a regal and elegant expression of amber-woody luxury with floral and spicy layers that appeal to both men and women — an excellent choice if you’re looking for a distinguished niche scent that balances refinement with depth.
