Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud Satin Mood Extrait is an extrait.
From the brand - "Just as the eau de parfum evokes a voluptuous satin fabric, this extrait version intensifies ambery accents. OUD satin mood Maison Francis Kurkdjian extrait de parfum puts abundant roses playing with their sensual nature to round out the dark and animal tones of oud wood before intertwining them with gentle violet blossoms. OUD satin mood extrait de parfum is a heady ambery perfume with an opulent fragrance trail, like the bright dazzle of a shooting star which cuts through the desert sky."
From the perfumer, Francis Kurkdjian - "OUD satin mood is the translation through perfume of a generous and shimmering world."
Fragrantica - "This is by far the best thing I’ve smelt in a while. OSM is beautifully done, the oud and rose marry together so well, it smells so divine and rich. Opens up powdery with vanilla like a creamy ice cream sorbet.
If you wanna smell wealthy use this. 11/10"
Fragrantica - "This fragrance firmly holds a spot in my Top 3 fragrances I’ve ever tried list. For me, it’s a powdery yet incredibly powerful rose-oud combination. The transitions between notes are seamless and elegant. It’s top-tier quality in every aspect."
Fragrantica - "One of the most exquisite perfumes—crafted using the scent of processed oud wrapped in Damask rose (both water and oil), complemented by labdanum with its warm, resinous, animalic notes, and vanillin (vanilla) to evoke the aroma of amber. Storax resin is also added to impart a honeyed, creamy richness."
Fragrantica - "When I wear this I know I will smell good for the next 20h. The deep woody rose in the opening, the dry down to vanilla and sweet citrus from the cardamom that lingers in the air, the trail of sweet jammy rose and musk, the hints of sweet carmel and cardamom from your own silage. The ultimate complement farming fragrance. This bottle is perfect, by far the absolute best MFK money can buy."
Fragrantica - "IMO this is one of the best fragrances of all time. I once wrote this off as too feminine but after giving it another wear I purchased a full bottle. This is one that will always be in my collection. Every time I wear all black i seem to wear this. To me it adds that mysterious element to the look. This may also be my most complimented fragrance. I’ll say it’s not for everyone but the way rose is done in this combined with vanilla, violet, and just a pinch of oud is absolutely awesome. 10/10"
Fragrantica - "Every time I smell OSM Extrait, I hear a choir singing as I drift off in a deep blue sea of infinite bliss."
Fragrantica - "A perfect example of a whole being more than the sum of its parts - Single notes can’t really be picked out, but the resulting blend is incredible. Super sexy, unique, masterful perfumery. Seductive sillage with lasting power easier measured in days than hours."
Fragrantica - "Absolutely masterful Oud fragrance with insane performance and projection. The first time I wore it two weeks ago I was wearing a hoodie, and still today I can smell it. Opens with a beautiful dark and, to my nose, slightly metallic and earthy oud note, with a bright smooth rose accompanying in the foreground. There is also a LOT of violet and warm amber to back it up, slightly sweetened by Vanilla. The dry down is insane, earthy, powdery sweet floral goodness, although for me it takes almost 2 hours to dry down, before seemingly lasting for the next 100 years."
Fragrantica - "Coming from someone who loves Interlude 53 and Arabians Tonka, this is INSANE. 1 spray and it goes nuclear. Seriously! Very smooth, sugary sweet, amber, florals and vanilla in a bed of oud undertones. Very nice!"
