Oud is one of those iconic scents. It is rich, unafraid to be intense and dark. It makes you turn your head to follow it in a room and evokes memories of dark leather sofas, saffron and magic smoke dancing in the twilight. Bath and Body Works have just made it much easier to enjoy the scent in a wide range of accessible ways.

Whether you layer your fragrance or choose to integrate one product from the collection to your self-care routine, the Dark Velvet Oud collection offers a variety of skin and body care benefits; shower gel provides gentle cleansing and leaves you feeling fresh, body lotion provides you with 24 hours moisture, the body cream, made with hyaluronic acid, leaves your skin feeling soft and rejuvenated and the fine fragrance mist offers a long-lasting and luxurious scent.

Christelle Laprade, the master perfumer behind the Dark Velvet Oud fragrance, designed a unique and luxurious fragrance, created with an expertly balanced blend of Raspberry Sugar, Velvet Rose and Rich Oud. Her exclusive fragrance is more than just a scent – it is designed to reflect an inner confidence, sophistication, and strength.

In essence, she describes her fragrance and its significance in the following statement: “This fragrance is empowering. I want every person who wears it to feel refined and confident. Wearing this fragrance captures the richness of dark velvet with the captivating power of Oud. Wearing this fragrance is a truly enchanting experience.”

The Dark Velvet Oud consists of a shower gel, body lotion, body cream, fine fragrance mist, and 3-wick candle. Bath and Body Works is a globally acclaimed brand known for its captivating and innovative fragrances, with the Dark Velvet Oud collection being their most recent addition.
