Hamidi Celestial Wood

Celestial Wood is Hamidi's interpretation of the smoky oud woody genre that Tom Ford's Oud Wood popularised, opening with bergamot and cardamom before moving into a Sichuan pepper, vanilla and white blossom heart and settling into agarwood, vetiver, sandalwood, amber and tonka bean.

Rayhaan Wood Noir

Rayhaan Wood Noir is a refined Oud Wood inspired woody oriental fragrance built around smooth cardamom spice, polished oud sandalwood creaminess, and a warm amber vanilla tonka base that feels elegant, versatile, and quietly luxurious.
