About

About this formula

Oud Satin Mood is one of the most requested reconstructions in the Maison Francis Kurkdjian canon, and our oriental formula chases its signature with precision. The opening leads with pink pepper and saffron before a rose, nutmeg, clove carnation, orange blossom and jasmine heart gives way to oud, vanilla, benzoin balsam, patchouli and dry woods in the drydown.

Fidelity comes from getting the ratios right: every percentage in this sheet has been balanced so the accord reads the way the original does, from the first spray through to the base.

This is a advanced-level build of 24 materials; we recommend macerating the concentrate and diluting to roughly 24% for a wearable EDP. The palette is built around accessible materials so you can source everything without hunting for obscure specialties.

Everything you need to make it is included: the exact materials and percentages, gram-per-100g conversions for any batch size, maceration advice and IFRA notes.

It is a rewarding study piece for anyone learning how a oriental accord of this kind is engineered, and a reliable formula to keep in rotation once you have it dialled in.

Questions

Frequently asked

What skill level does the Oud Satin Mood formula need?+

This formula is rated advanced. It uses 24 materials and comes with step-by-step maceration and dilution guidance, so it suits makers comfortable with weighing materials on a precision scale. Every material is listed with its CAS number so you can source the exact item.

Where do I buy the ingredients?+

All of the materials are stocked by the major hobby-perfumery suppliers in the US, EU, UK and Australia. Each material includes its CAS number to make ordering unambiguous, and our free Ingredients Guide lists trusted suppliers by region. Specialty bases are flagged with supplier notes in the formula.

How much fragrance will this make?+

The formula is given per 100 g of concentrate, with grams-per-100g figures for every material, and our on-screen batch calculator scales it to 10 g, 50 g, 1 kg or any size instantly. Diluted to roughly 24% in perfumer's alcohol, a 100 g concentrate batch makes around 500 g of finished eau de parfum.

Is it legal to make a clone of a designer fragrance?+

Yes, for personal use. Fragrance scents themselves are not protected by copyright, and our formulas are original reconstructions — our own interpretations, not the houses' confidential formulae. Trademarks protect names and logos, which is why we describe formulas as "inspired by" a fragrance and never use brand logos. Read more on our blog about clone-formula legality.

What about IFRA compliance?+

Each formula includes IFRA notes. The percentages describe the concentrate; your skin-level exposure depends on the final dilution. If you ever sell or gift a finished product you should check the current IFRA Standards for restricted materials and confirm the maximum for your product category. For personal use, always patch-test and follow supplier safety data.

Can I get a refund on a formula?+

Because formulas are digital products delivered instantly, we do not offer change-of-mind refunds. We will, however, refund or correct any formula that contains a genuine material error within 7 days of purchase. See our refund policy for details.
