Fragrance Du Bois Oud Orange Intense
Coconut, bourbon vanilla and a trace of oud
Oud Orange Intense is the brand's sweet gourmand escape to tropical shores, composed by Caroline Sabas. A fruity coconut opening leads into bourbon vanilla and musk, with only a discreet trace of natural oud beneath. It is a short pyramid with one idea at its centre: vanilla, used twice.

How it unfolds
-
Coconut and fruit
The top has only two notes, coconut and fruits, so the opening is simple and sweet rather than layered. Coconut gives it a soft, creamy, slightly milky body, while the fruits add juice and a touch of sharpness. It fits the brand's idea of a tropical escape.
-
Bourbon vanilla
At the heart there is a single note, bourbon vanilla, rich and warm and without competition from flowers or spice. It turns the fruit-and-coconut start into a proper gourmand, rounder and slower. The brand lists vanilla again in the base, so the sweetness runs to the end.
-
Musk and a trace of oud
The base adds musk, another layer of vanilla and pure organic vintage oud, which the brand says is only a discreet trace. The oud gives the sweetness a faint woody floor but does not take over. The finish stays soft, creamy and sweet.
Wearing it
When, who and why
Sweet and easy
A sweet gourmand like this works best in measured amounts: two sprays on skin are a good start for a Parfum. It suits warm days and mild evenings, and the vanilla also sits well in autumn. Wear it when you want comfort rather than freshness.
Who it is for
Unisex, and for people who enjoy vanilla and coconut and appreciate a clearly sweet scent. It is also a quiet way into oud for anyone who finds heavier oud perfumes too much, since the brand describes the oud here as discreet.
Why choose Fragrance Du Bois Oud Orange Intense
It keeps the idea simple: coconut and fruit, bourbon vanilla, musk and a small amount of oud. Caroline Sabas composed it for the brand's Intense line, and it comes in a faceted bottle with a crystal-studded cap and a velvet-lined gift box.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
