What is oud?
Oud refers to fragrant agarwood material and, in perfume descriptions, the scent character associated with it. An oud note does not establish that natural agarwood oil is present. Velario Nomade lists oud wood in its heart notes without disclosing a natural-oud content percentage.

How should you use this term when comparing fragrances?
Compare oud alongside the surrounding notes. Nomade’s published heart combines Turkish rose and oud wood, while its base lists benzoin, amber, and leather. These are useful descriptive facts; they do not establish the origin, species, or percentage of an ingredient.
What distinction matters?
An oud scent note does not certify natural agarwood content.
The table reproduces a public catalog description. It is not an independent test, an ingredient analysis, or evidence of another brand’s formula.
