Oud Paradisio is a bold, captivating fragrance where power and opulence meet in striking contrast. At its core lies a dark, enveloping oud wood, majestic and commanding, setting a rich and mysterious foundation. The opening brings an unexpected brightness: the citrus sparkle of bergamot blended with the juicy sweetness of frosted pineapple. A delicate thread of incense and saffron weaves through, adding depth and a subtle, smoky elegance.
At the heart, an exquisite trio of roses—two essences and an absolute—unfolds with refined intensity, bringing floral elegance and emotional depth to the composition. The base reveals a warm, indulgent interplay between shadowy oud and cocoa, creating a rich, sensual texture with a voluptuous character. Beneath it all, animalic nuances emerge, giving the fragrance its raw strength and confident presence.
Oud Paradisio is a nocturnal scent, complex and surprising, where sensuality grows within a woody warmth shaped by restraint and control. It draws a clear parallel to the world of leather in fashion: a material that carries both nobility and raw instinct. From Claude Montana’s powerful silhouettes in the 1980s to the bold, transgressive vision of Rick Owens, leather has been shaped into a second skin that expresses strength, identity, and fearless attitude.
"I wanted to play with contrasted matters, connecting them together to create unity. I sculpted a perfume that melts boundaries between freshness and sensuality, light and depth. The idea was to reimagine oud, through a colorful and soft lens. A pineapple sorbet that glistens with juiciness reveals an unexpected transparency. At the heart, rose acts as my guiding thread, soft yet confident, connecting Oud Ice Cream to the soul of BDK Parfums. Wrapped around it, a textured vanilla adds smooth warmth, balancing the cool top with creamy indulgence. This perfume is a study of contrasts turned harmony, where every material is treated like a brushstroke in a living composition — spontaneous, elegant, deep." Jordi Fernandez

Jordi Fernandez is the perfumer for BDK's newest fragrance Impadia: “My intention was to create a fragrance that expresses beauty in its purest form. The starting point was an irresistibly addictive blend of Bulgarian and Turkish roses, each petal whispering tales of sensuality. I enhanced this accord with the richness of Vanilla from Madagascar and harmoniously interlaced it with a mouth-watering creamy Praline to add a delectable sweetness. To elevate this luxurious experience, I introduced a striking duo of high quality ingredients: exclusive AkigalawoodTM️, which illuminates the fragrance with its bold, spicy, woody character, perfectly balanced by the vibrant, addictive, and ultra sensual notes of AmbrofixTM️. This combination creates a fragrance that not only enchants the senses but also leaves an indelible mark, celebrating beauty in all its forms.”
