Oud in White – Parfum - Fruity Notes, Jasmine and Oud

Laboratorio Olfattivo – OUD IN WHITE – Parfum Intense

The bright contrast of OUD IN WHITE: jasmine on oud, without the dark show

Laboratorio Olfattivo doesn’t go for the usual oud drama with OUD IN WHITE. It chooses a harder contrast: light. This niche perfume braids the hypnotic, almost animalic depth of oud with the floating sensuality of jasmine sambac — not as opponents, but as interlocking textures. There’s no smoke wall here, just a clean, luminous signature that feels like polished wood beneath white fabric: elegant, approachable, and intentionally composed.

The opening: pear, ginger CO₂ and raspberry as a bright impulse

The start is unexpectedly fresh, but never random. Pear brings juicy transparency, ginger CO₂ cuts through with a dry, sparkling snap, and raspberry flickers briefly — more a fine fruit tint that sets up the floral tension than a sweet trick. You can tell early on that OUD IN WHITE isn’t chasing a loud gourmand effect; it’s a controlled opening that leads you straight to the core. That’s what makes it so wearable as a niche fragrance: clean impulse, immediate direction.

The heart: jasmine sambac, osmanthus and Virginia cedarwood — sensual, yet precise

In the heart, jasmine sambac blooms: lush, slightly indolic, with that skin-warm radiance that creates instant intimacy. Osmanthus refines the bloom with a quiet apricot-leather nuance, never weighing it down. Virginia cedarwood keeps everything on line — dry, elegant, like a clear frame around a very sensual motif. The balance lands perfectly: floral wildness without excess, a unisex perfume that doesn’t rely on gender codes, only on style.

The drydown: labdanum and sandalwood carry oud like daybreak

As OUD IN WHITE settles, it turns calmer, deeper, smoother. Labdanum from cistus lays down a resinous, balsamic warmth — a warm shadow beneath the florals. Sri Lankan sandalwood extends that into a creamy-woody trail that never turns sweet, only velvety and long. And then there’s Cambodian oud: structured, lightly leathery, never sooty. It reads more “textured” than “dark” — like wood grain revealed by light. The result is a fragrance that lasts and still feels cultured, perfect if you love exceptional fragrances that don’t beg for attention.

Effect & occasion: luxurious clarity with quiet authority

This luxurious niche perfume works at night as well as in the daytime — as long as you dose lightly. The aura is elegant rather than room-filling, the longevity is clearly felt, and the character is unmistakable: white jasmine glow over fine woods and oud. As a men’s scent it reads like calm sovereignty; as a women’s scent it feels like a warm, bright veil with bite. If you want to buy niche perfume that interprets oud in a modern, wearable way, Laboratorio Olfattivo OUD IN WHITE is a strong statement.

Perfumer Julien Rasquinet: the craft of duality

Julien Rasquinet builds OUD IN WHITE on a deliberate tension: indolic florality against leathery depth, transparency against resin. The result isn’t either-or — it constantly rebalances on skin, and that’s exactly why it feels so compelling.
