What Does Oud For Happiness Eau de Parfum Smell Like?

Designed to ignite a sense of joy in both the wearer and those around them, Initio Oud For Happiness is both uplifting and bright and yet still cosily spiced. It's seriously seductive, too.

A tart, sunny and joyful mood is created by bergamot. At the same time, the aphrodisiac ginger adds a warm, spicy ginger edge to the fragrance. A fresh blast of herbs and sweet liquorice mingle together - but it's the Indian oud that takes centre stage, as it adds a warm, woody and slightly smoked tone to promote a calming sensation. The fragrance flourishes with a lasting warm, cosy sweetness created by sensual musk and creamy vanilla.

Why it's Escentual:

Initio Oud For Happiness is centred around the prized ancestral material of oud, a precious natural ingredient that boasts psychoactive and spiritual dimensions; it's used to promote mediation in traditional healing methods and is also a costly entity. But why does Oud For Happiness celebrate this rich natural extract? For experts, oud is the fragrance of joy, with Initio Oud For Happiness created to ignite a spark of positivity in you - in fact, this fragrance invites you to inhale your way to happiness.

Rich in terpenoids, oud boasts natural sedative and anti-anxiety powers, helping to rebalance your energy levels while relaxing both the body and mind. But just because the scent boosts your mood, that doesn't mean that you have to sacrifice those rich, luxurious and seductive notes we've come to expect from an Initio fragrance; they still lace the fragrance - with dangerously addictive results! It's joy-enhancing but still undeniably classy, bold, and a little bit sexy.

And we couldn't possibly talk about an Initio fragrance without mentioning the bottle! Tying into the Black Project collection similar to Oud for Greatness, Oud For Happiness' bottle is gorgeously elaborate and undeniably refined. It reminds us of an ancient coffret bursting with long-lost artefacts and precious gemstones. Its matte black bottle contrasts with the glistening golds and swirling emeralds that adorn its front. Even the unboxing experience feels luxurious as you unveil layer upon layer to finally reveal the fragrance, sitting on a bed of midnight-black crushed velvet.

The Best Way To Use It:

Always apply the fragrance to your pulse points, namely your neck and wrists. Initio always advise not to rub a fragrance in; instead, pat it in to let the molecules settle.
