About The Oud Man and the Sea
The Oud Man and the Sea by Ensar Oud: Woody Oriental Review
Ensar Oud’s latest release, The Oud Man and the Sea, is a unisex woody oriental that landed in 2025.
It offers a dense, resinous oud core, made livelier by herbs, fruit and spices.
The composition brings together an extensive list of materials: tobacco, oud wood, lavender, frankincense, cypriol (nagarmota), blackcurrant, black pepper, Mitti Attar, osmanthus, vanilla, pepper, clove, cocoa, rose and musk.
The core accords run from tobacco, oud and sweet to warm spicy, woody, fresh spicy, fruity, lavender, amber and floral. These facets tend to emerge at different points, depending on skin temperature and how long the scent has been worn.
Cypriol and Mitti Attar give the composition an earthy, almost mineral quality. The osmanthus and blackcurrant lift things with a fruity shimmer, while vanilla and cocoa soften the sharper spices without clouding the oud.
This 2025 launch sits firmly in the woody oriental category and is designed as a unisex offering from Ensar Oud. It arrives as a new entry in their collection, preserving the brand’s reputation for rich, traditional materials.
With an average score of 4.4 out of 5 from the first five ratings, The Oud Man and the Sea is already catching the eye of enthusiasts. No perfumer is named, but the composition feels polished and coherent throughout.
Those who appreciate high-quality oud and oriental woody blends will find plenty to enjoy here. It suits wearers who like a unisex scent that feels sophisticated enough for evenings but still fresh enough for daytime.
The Oud Man and the Sea is a welcome new chapter for Ensar Oud. It is bold without being harsh, sweet without losing its woody backbone, and fresh enough to lift the deep resinous notes. A successful balancing act.

The first Ensar Ouds I tried were Jamaican Ambergris Purple Sultani and Oud Man. I was sure the first would be my favourite, but Oud Man won the game, to the point that I had to find a way to bring it to my country. It’s an oud perfume that doesn’t stink, just woody, with spices, but it stands out for what the bottle’s painting refers to: the sea. This is interpreted with navy blue notes, it’s fresh, with a blue mint sensation, whose contrast creates a very pleasant experience. It happened that around the same time I tried L’Oud Marin by Maksim and, although different, the marine oud profile stands out, becoming one of my favourites. You have no problem with projection or longevity. It’s definitely one of my favourites in my collection. Literally, it smells like dock wood at night.
