For the last scent of the ARABIAN NIGHTS collection, I wanted to work with Alberto Morillas. First, because he has been working with the 'Oud' accord for a long time (he is the creator of Saint Laurent's M7 scent). More importantly, however, he understands how to bring comfort and elegance to an extreme olfactive accord, that which I knew would be the difficulty of MUSK OUD. What I wanted from the beginning was a strong animalic scent, yet in a very controlled way. I did not want a fragrance that would become 'anecdotal' because the purpose would be too extreme and, therefore, unwearable.
