This is a beautifully-executed balance between dense, rich materials and a sheer, relaxed interpretation. Oud, unusually sourced from Brazil, sits easily with cedar, guaiac, patchouli and sandalwood, harmonising with spicy notes of cardamom and black pepper. With 92% ingredients of natural origin, the fragrance stays true to its structure, even as a lighter eau de cologne formulation. Free of dyes and animal ingredients.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
An unhurried afternoon with the windows open and conversation close enough not to require a raised voice. Pepper and cardamom give the woods a lively edge, while the relaxed oud character lends quiet substance without making the setting feel formal.
How to wear
The fresh treatment of the woods makes this a plausible choice for warm weather as well as cooler days. Begin with a light application to the neck or forearms, allowing the peppery opening to settle before adding more. In heat or close quarters, keep the application restrained rather than layering heavily.
Who it’s for
For those who enjoy cedar, dry spice and layered woods but prefer a more open texture to dense oud compositions. It offers a bridge between fresh aromatic fragrances and richer woody styles, with depth that does not depend on sweetness.

The nose
Leonardo Lucheze. Associated with the fragrance house Takasago, he created the fresh, lively interpretation that persuaded Granado to embrace oud. Here, his approach balances the depth of woody materials with aromatic lift, adapting the theme to the house’s Brazilian identity.
Granado’s story
Rooted in Rio de Janeiro’s pharmacy and perfumery heritage, Granado connects historical identity with contemporary fragrance-making. Its Vintage collection draws on the house’s former Perfumaria Helios division, while its creative approach favors distinctive compositions over market benchmarks.
Oud’s concept
Granado initially resisted distributors’ requests for an oud fragrance, feeling the theme was distant from its Brazilian identity. Leonardo Lucheze’s fresh, lively proposal changed that view. The resulting composition interprets rich woods through a lighter aromatic structure conceived with Brazil’s climate in mind.
Extra info
Despite the EdP label supplied here, Granado’s official product pages identify Oud as an Eau de Cologne. Its woody structure also includes elemi and absinthe alongside the more prominent oud, cedar and spices.
