Ex Nihilo Oud Vendome Eau de Parfum 100ml is a modern, urban oud fragrance for men and women. It opens with saffron and ginger, moves into a heart of cedarwood and incense with a touch of galbanum, and settles on a base of oud accord and musk.
About Ex Nihilo Oud Vendome
Ex Nihilo is a Parisian haute perfumery house founded in 2013 by Benoît Verdier, Sylvie Loday and Olivier Royère. Its name is Latin for "out of nothing", or created from scratch, and its first boutique opened at 352 rue Saint-Honoré in Paris, close to Place Vendôme. The house says its perfumers work with complete creative freedom, without limits on materials or cost. Ex Nihilo is also known for the Osmologue, a technology in its boutiques that lets customers personalise selected fragrances.
Ex Nihilo calls Oud Vendome "Oriental Parisian". It is a contemporary agarwood fragrance with a deliberate urban, Parisian character, presented as a distinctly French take on oud that blends East and West. The name refers to Place Vendôme, the elegant square close to the house's first boutique. Perfumer Olivier Pescheux kept the oud smooth and clean, pairing it with saffron, ginger, cedar and incense rather than heavy sweetness.

What Does Ex Nihilo Oud Vendome Smell Like?
The opening is warm and lively. Saffron (kesar) gives a golden, leathery spice and ginger adds a zesty warmth.
In the heart, cedarwood brings a dry, clean woodiness and incense adds a smoky, resinous glow, with a green touch of galbanum.
In the base, an oud accord gives a smooth, dark woody richness and musk softens it. The oud feels clean and polished rather than barnyard-heavy. The result is woody, smoky and refined.
Key Ingredients Explained
- Saffron: Saffron adds a warm, golden, slightly leathery spice and is one of the signature notes of Arabian perfumery.
- Ginger: Ginger brings a zesty, warm and lively spice.
- Cedarwood: Cedarwood is a dry, clean, pencil-shaving wood that adds structure.
- Incense: Incense brings a smoky, resinous and mystical glow, reminiscent of agarbatti and bakhoor.
- Galbanum: Galbanum is a green resin with a sharp, leafy and slightly bitter freshness.
- Agarwood: Agarwood (oud) is the precious, resinous heartwood of the Aquilaria tree, prized across Arabia and India for its deep, woody and slightly smoky richness.
Longevity and Performance
As an Eau de Parfum, it has a higher concentration of perfume oils than an Eau de Toilette, so it lasts well and leaves a noticeable trail. Longevity depends on skin type, weather and the amount applied, but two to four sprays are usually enough. Its oud and musk base gives Oud Vendome a smooth, woody trail that lasts well and feels sophisticated.
When to Wear Oud Vendome
- Evenings and dinners: Smooth and refined oud.
- Office in cooler months: Clean enough for work.
- Weddings and Eid: Saffron and oud feel festive.
- Winter: Warm and woody.
- Shared fragrance: Unisex, for men and women.
Who Is It For?
Oud Vendome is for men and women who love oud but want a cleaner, more modern style. For a richer oud with rose and vanilla, try Ex Nihilo Midnight Special; for a smoky incense and vanilla scent, try Ex Nihilo Atlas Fever.
Why Choose Oud Vendome?
Oud Vendome is a good introduction to oud for anyone who finds traditional ouds too heavy. Saffron and ginger give it warmth, incense adds a familiar smoky glow and the clean oud base feels polished. It is a refined choice for both festive and everyday occasions.
How to Wear and Layer It
- Spray on neck, chest and wrists.
- Two to three sprays are enough for most occasions.
- Apply on moisturised skin for better longevity.
- For evenings, a light mist on clothes adds to the trail.
Layering tip: Wear it alone, or layer it with a light rose attar for a classic rose-oud pairing.
Good to Know
Place Vendôme is an elegant square in Paris, known for luxury jewellers and hotels. Oud Vendome uses this setting to give agarwood a smooth, Parisian polish.
How to Store Your Perfume
Keep your perfume in its box, away from direct sunlight, heat and humidity. In Indian weather, avoid leaving it in a car or a steamy bathroom; a cool cupboard or drawer is ideal. Always close the cap tightly after use, as heat and air can change the scent over time.
