Discover Smooth Refined Oud: Epico Don't Call Me Oud Sample
Experience intriguing elegance with Epico Don't Call Me Oud, the captivating Eau de Parfum launched in 2024 by Italian niche house Epico (perfumer Federico Gucciardi). As a standout creation challenging traditional oud perceptions, this oriental woody gourmand masterpiece delivers a sweet, refined take on agarwood—blending vibrant saffron, rhubarb, apple, and bergamot with layered violet, saffron, oud, rose, and jasmine, then enveloping in creamy caramel, vanilla absolute, precious woods, and tonka bean for a sophisticated, addictive, and irresistibly magnetic aura that's fresh yet deep, fruity yet woody, and powerfully charismatic—like an Italian finesse on oud, smooth and creamy without the harsh smoke or barnyard edge.
It opens with a crisp, juicy burst of apple and bergamot—bright citrus-fruity—accented by tart rhubarb and golden saffron for a sweet-spicy, invigorating edge. The heart blooms with violet, saffron, oud, rose, and jasmine—powdery floral elegance mingling with subtle oud woodiness and warm spice for refined depth. It dries down to a luxurious base of caramel, vanilla absolute, precious woods, and tonka bean—creamy, caramel-sweet, and smoothly woody—creating a skin-like richness that's unisex, enduring, and refined.

Frequently hailed as a sweet, non-traditional oud gem—creamy, refined, and elegantly unisex—Epico Don't Call Me Oud is described as a smooth saffron-caramel blend with fruity-oud depth and vanilla-tonka warmth, evoking curiosity, effortless sophistication, or seductive allure (often praised as "not your typical oud," with Italian finesse making it approachable and addictive). It's a fall/winter standout (versatile year-round) that draws compliments for its addictive creaminess, strong projection, and magnetic charm. Performance is impressive: 8-10+ hours longevity (excellent on clothes), solid projection (noticeable yet refined), and pleasant sillage—evolving from fruity-spicy sparkle to a creamy, woody-caramel finish. Fragrance lovers praise its balance, high-quality intensity (a true niche statement), and wearability, though some note prominent sweetness or subtle oud fade—perfect for those seeking non-generic, uplifting elegance.
