Zestina

Oud doesn’t sit neatly on a spectrum. It sprawls… ‘fruity’ doesn’t cancel out ‘earthy’, ‘woody’ doesn’t oppose ‘floral’. It’s not a line. You’ve got an olfactory map with shifting borders.

Thai oud tends to lean into lush: fruits and florals take center stage. Think Sumanaka’s syrupy gleam or Kusuma’s petal-slicked sweetness – both textbook, both unmistakably Thai.

Zestina barges into your nose with apricot and plum, ripe, dripping, sliding off freesia stems and pooling into magnolia. A whisper of coco. A flicker of incense that feels almost Papuan. Rain-on-earth vibes, but glazed with tangy fruit.

That jammy coco note? It’s not cacao, obviously. It’s the mirage of it. Oud has a way creating such mirages, which is why there’s no end to exploring its scent! Incense curling around plum-flecked magnolia that leaves a phantom trail.

…meet Zestina – an easy to wear, playful and affordable cutie that has captured my heart. I put a few swipes on my arms before catching a red-eye flight out of Dubai last night and could not get enough of it. Re-swiped this morning and went ahead and got 3 x 3 ml backups. This is how I am celebrating 9 fragrant years with EO.

Zestina opens on me with a whiff of a lactonic peach/apricot (smell of milk powder or maybe burfis, sweets made of condensed milk, served at a fruit farm) then manifests into a juicy fruity concoction with a great lift and an attractive drydown. Great projection and longevity.
