Extrait · 2024 · unisex

Maison Crivelli is an independent French fragrance house known for crafting bold, unconventional compositions that prioritize raw materials and artistic expression over mass market appeal. The brand has built a reputation for sophisticated oud fragrances that avoid the predictable tropes of the category.

Oud Cadenza opens with a warm, spiced introduction of saffron, cinnamon, cardamom, and ginger that immediately sets a gourmand tone. The heart brings in agarwood alongside dates, caramel, and sugar cane, creating a syrupy sweetness that complements rather than overwhelms the oud's woody character. Incense and myrrh add aromatic depth, while the base layers in Madagascar vanilla, tonka, cacao butter, and leather for a rich, creamy finish. This is a decidedly sweet, indulgent oud fragrance with amber and vanilla as its guiding accords, leaning gourmand without becoming cloying.

Oud Cadenza works best for those who enjoy sweet, spiced fragrances with substance and aren't averse to bold sillage. It's equally suited to evening wear or colder months when its warmth feels most natural. The extrait concentration ensures longevity and depth. If you gravitate toward The Seducer, The Reverie, and The Hedonist, this fragrance deserves your attention.

Saffron
Saffron
The most expensive spice in the world has a leathery, honeyed, slightly metallic quality that is immediately recognizable. In perfumery, saffron adds a dark, animalic richness, it's the note that gives oud-rose fragrances their distinctive regal depth. A little goes a long way; too much reads as medicinal.
Cinnamon
Cinnamon
Sweet, warm, and instantly comforting, cinnamon bark has a familiar warmth that slides easily into oriental and gourmand fragrances. Used sparingly it adds a pleasant warmth; used heavily it can dominate. It has a slightly sharp, peppery facet alongside its sweetness that keeps it from being purely foodie.
Cardamom
Cardamom
Aromatic, warm, and slightly eucalyptus-like with a spiced green freshness that is entirely its own. Cardamom is one of the most elegant spice notes in perfumery, exotic without being heavy, warm without being sweet. It appears frequently in Middle Eastern-inspired fragrances and modern masculine compositions.
Nutmeg
Nutmeg
Warm, woody, and softly spiced with a slight sweetness that makes it gentler than clove or pepper. Nutmeg adds a quiet, autumnal warmth to fragrances without sharpness. It blends seamlessly into woody and oriental bases, acting more as a supporting character than a lead note.
Ginger
Ginger
Warm, zesty, and slightly medicinal with a bite that sits between spice and citrus. Ginger root adds a lively, invigorating quality to fragrances, it energises rather than soothes. Depending on how it's used, it can read as fresh and zingy or warm and earthy, making it unusually versatile across fragrance families.
Pink Pepper
Pink Pepper
Fruity, slightly rosy, and gently spiced, pink pepper is softer and more aromatic than black pepper. It occupies a unique space between citrus, floral, and spice families, which makes it exceptionally versatile. You'll find it in contemporary fresh fragrances where it adds lift and personality without aggression.

Dates
Dates
Dark, honeyed, and syrupy sweet, dates have a warm, almost molasses-like richness with a slightly caramel, fermented depth. In perfumery they add a Middle Eastern warmth to oriental compositions, bridging honey and amber families. The quintessential note of Gulf-region fragrances, suggesting hospitality and abundance.
Agarwood (Oud)
Agarwood (Oud)
Caramel
Caramel
Warm, buttery, and sweet with a slight bitterness from the cooking process, caramel is one of perfumery's most approachable gourmand notes. It adds a comforting, edible quality without going full dessert, and it softens and rounds other notes beautifully. A pillar of the Angel-inspired oriental-gourmand genre.
Sugar Cane
Sugar Cane
Green, slightly earthy, and faintly sweet, freshly cut sugar cane has a more complex character than refined sugar, with a vegetal, slightly rum-like quality. Sugar cane in perfumery adds a tropical, natural sweetness with a slightly green freshness. Evoking Caribbean fields and rum distilleries, it bridges green and gourmand families.
Amberwood
Amberwood
Incense
Incense
The dry, smoky, slightly woody scent of burning resin, incense in perfumery usually means frankincense or similar resins, adding a contemplative, almost spiritual quality. It creates distance and mystery, making fragrances feel larger than they are. A hallmark of niche, serious perfumery.
Myrrh
Myrrh
Deep, bittersweet, and slightly medicinal, myrrh is a resin with a complex, almost anise-like quality that sets it apart from frankincense. It adds a dark, almost sacred quality to oriental fragrances and is more challenging and assertive than its biblical companion. A note that rewards patience.
Davana
Davana
A curious and highly individual note from an Indian herb, davana has a fruity, slightly winey quality with honey-like sweetness and a faint medicinal edge. Unusually, davana smells different on different skin types, making it one of perfumery's most personalized notes. Used in oriental and woody fragrances for its warm, amber-like complexity.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Madagascar Vanilla
Madagascar Vanilla
The world's dominant commercial vanilla variety, grown primarily in Madagascar, with a classic, balanced vanilla character: warm, sweet, and creamy with a woody undertone. Madagascar vanilla is the reference-point vanilla in perfumery, widely used for its excellent quality and reliable character. The benchmark against which other vanillas are measured.
Cacao Butter
Cacao Butter
The pale, creamy fat extracted from cacao beans has a gentle, slightly chocolatey, and very smooth warmth. Cacao butter is less intense than chocolate or cocoa in fragrance, adding a silky, skin-like creaminess with a faint chocolate suggestion. Used to add luxury and smoothness to oriental and gourmand bases.
Tonka
Tonka
Leather
Leather
One of perfumery's most complex accords, smoky, animalic, and slightly woody, evoking tanned hide, polished saddles, or fine gloves depending on the recipe. Leather adds sophistication and edge simultaneously, and is deeply associated with masculinity in Western perfumery (though the best leather fragrances transcend gender entirely).
Benzoin
Benzoin
Sweet, warm, and balsamic, benzoin resin smells like vanilla mixed with incense, with a powdery, slightly medicinal edge. It adds a comforting warmth and fixative quality to oriental fragrances, and blends beautifully with spices. Often used to smooth and round off sharp edges in complex base notes.
Musk
Musk
The base layer of almost every modern fragrance, a soft, warm, skin-like scent that extends longevity and bridges other notes together. Natural musk was once derived from deer (now banned); today's musks are synthetic and range from clean and soapy to dark and animalic. The right musk makes a fragrance smell like 'you.'
Patchouli
Patchouli
Dense, earthy, and darkly sweet, patchouli is the scent of damp soil and dried herbs with an almost chocolatey richness. It polarizes people because in high concentrations it's overwhelming, but as a supporting note it adds depth and longevity that almost nothing else can match. The backbone of countless oriental and chypre fragrances.
Labdanum
Labdanum
A resin from the rock rose plant with a dark, animalic, honeyed quality that anchors many classic oriental fragrances. Labdanum is simultaneously leathery and sweet, with a raw complexity that synthetic materials struggle to match. It's a cornerstone of amber accords and chypre compositions.
