Oud Zarian: a new refined fragrance from The House of Creed

At Fragrans in fabula, you can enter the refined world of Oud Zarian, a true olfactory masterpiece created from a blend of some of the finest natural raw materials.

Oud Zarian embodies the silent and patient work of generations of artisans who, for decades in Bangladesh, have dedicated themselves to the production of this precious resin using traditional techniques that have transformed this coveted raw material into an unforgettable fragrance. More than just a perfume, Oud Zarian is a tribute to the consistency required for this process and the continuous pursuit of perfection that characterises The House of Creed.

The fragrance is Millésime, a French term borrowed from the world of wine that the Maison uses to indicate the excellence of its creations. The composition opens with an aura of mystery recreated by rich swirls of incense that blend with the warmth of spices and ginger to reveal the elegance of centifolia rose. This sumptuous debut gives way to the vibrant heart of the fragrance: an Oud Choron aged for over 80 years with vanilla and smoky facets enhanced by the creaminess of sandalwood, patchouli and myrrh to create a trail of lingering charm.

Oud Choron, the rare resin that forms the soul of Oud Zarian, is carefully harvested in the depths of the Sylhet forests in north-eastern Bangladesh. This is where the Jalali family lives, who for over 400 years have perfected the processes of cultivating and distilling oud to such an extent that they have become world leaders in its production. Its essential oil is considered the best oud in the world: what sets it apart is the expertise of the Master Distillers, artisans whose knowledge is passed down orally.

The Jalali Agarwood production company is also committed to preserving the charm of oud for future generations: for every tree that is felled, twenty new ones are planted to ensure its preservation. In support of sustainability, the trees used for oud production are also rigorously selected by hand, so that those that do not produce oud are never cut down.

The House of Creed is one of the few privileged companies to have access to this highly sought-after raw material thanks to its long-standing commitment to maintaining its tradition of craftsmanship. The result is Oud Zarian, an olfactory journey through time, an elegant fragrance that fully embodies the excellence of The House of Creed.
