Perfumer: Pierre Guéros “ExpLOud marks the beginning of a new creative synergy: Laboratorio Olfattivo meets Pierre Guéros, perfumer at Symrise. This great traveller and connoisseur of Middle East immediately seduced us with his sensitivity, his human curiosity and his ability to establish an empathic contact with other cultures. Without hesitation, we entrusted him the mission of giving body to “our vision” of Oud. ExpLOud was born, as an aromatic explosion based on the most precious and luminous of Ouds, with floral notes to lift and twist the characteristic scent of this unique raw material which has already experienced numerous interpretations on the market”.

George Q.★★★★★
The opening blast hits like a spice market at noon—warm, woody, unapologetically bold. It settles into something smoother on skin after an hour, and the sillage lasted a full workday on me.
Hannah Q.★★★★★
Took a chance on this after reading about the perfumer’s Middle East travels, and the first spray instantly transports me—there’s a warmth and depth that feels genuinely crafted, not mass-produced. I keep catching new layers hours later, which never happens with my usual picks.
Zoe P.★★★★★
The dry-down on this one is what got me—it shifts beautifully after the first hour, and the sillage is just right without being loud. I've worn it to work and out in the evening, and it holds up for most of the day. Definitely a new staple in my rotation.
