Fragrance Profile
2022 Generation Homme is a striking meeting between modern freshness and traditional Middle Eastern oud. Conceived as a vision of the future, the fragrance contrasts vibrant fruits and aromatic freshness with a deep, sophisticated woody foundation.
The opening is unusually bright for an oud fragrance. Juicy blackcurrant provides a dark, tart fruitiness while yuzu adds sparkling citrus and mint introduces a cool green freshness. This energetic opening gradually gives way to the centerpiece of the composition: Cambodian oud.
The oud is rich, dry, woody, and commanding, creating a darker character without completely erasing the fruity freshness of the opening. As the fragrance develops, additional precious oud is surrounded by warm spices and balsamic nuances, producing a smooth, resinous and increasingly sensual drydown.
The result is a distinctive fruity-oud composition that bridges Eastern tradition and contemporary perfumery—dark and powerful underneath, yet surprisingly fresh and vibrant above.

Performance
2022 Generation Homme delivers strong longevity and a substantial presence, with the oud, woods and balsamic elements remaining prominent long after the brighter fruit and citrus opening begins to fade. Its evolution from fresh and fruity to dark, woody and resinous gives it considerable depth throughout the wear.
Ideal For
Ideal for oud lovers looking for something different from traditional rose-and-oud compositions. Its combination of blackcurrant, yuzu, mint and powerful woods makes it particularly suited to evenings, cooler weather, special occasions, and anyone seeking a bold fragrance that balances modern freshness with Middle Eastern richness.
