La Closerie des Parfums is a French niche perfume house that celebrates the art of olfactory travel with refined and evocative creations. Inspired by Parisian gardens and nurtured by family expertise, it blends tradition and exoticism. Each fragrance combines noble raw materials—such as Centifolia rose or reconstituted oud—with subtle spice accords. Founded by Valérie Madrid, trained at Cinquième Sens, the house composes elegant and sensorial perfumes. True invitations to escape, these creations transform each scent into an enchanting interlude.
Oud that turns into embers. Woody, spicy, deep — a warmth that settles in and never leaves.
There are perfumes you wear to go unnoticed, and others you wear because you've decided to command attention. Oud Cannelle by La Closerie des Parfums definitely belongs to the second category. The house, founded by Valérie Madrid, trained at Cinquième Sens, isn't seeking lightness or ambiguity here — it constructs a dense, warm, and woody oriental, fully embracing its nature and presence. A fragrance with character for those who have it.
In this Eau de Parfum concentration, the composition opens with a luminous and slightly bitter clarity. Bergamot, bitter orange, and rose establish a golden, slightly citrusy freshness — vibrant, elegant, which prepares the warm material that follows without ever rushing it. Cinnamon, guaiac wood, cedar, and sandalwood then arrive at the heart in a spicy woody accord of remarkable density and warmth — the cinnamon slightly burnt and sweet, guaiac wood with its smoky and slightly medicinal facets, angular and dry cedar, creamy sandalwood that softens the whole. It's a heart that asserts itself — not violently, with the confidence of something that doesn't need to justify itself. Amber, vanilla, patchouli, and myrrh settle in the base in an enveloping and persistent oriental depth — myrrh brings its balmy, slightly bitter, and subtly incensed facets that distinguish this base from all conventional orientals. Oud runs through it all like a discreet but decisive signature — reconstructed, woody, dry, never animalic. Oud Cannelle doesn't apologize. It settles in.
Oud Cannelle is the perfume for those who know that the most memorable warmth is one that smolders for a long time — before igniting.
Oud Cannelle is the La Closerie perfume we recommend to oriental lovers who don't want to compromise. The bergamot-bitter orange opening is luminous and well-constructed — it prepares the heart without betraying it. The cinnamon in the heart is warm and controlled, never gourmand. And the myrrh in the base is what truly distinguishes Oud Cannelle from other oud-woody orientals in the catalog: that slight balmy bitterness that prevents vanilla from ever sweetening the composition.
Oud Cannelle Eau de Parfum by La Closerie des Parfums is a unisex oriental fragrance from the French house founded by Valérie Madrid. It explores the oud-woody accord in its spiciest and deepest version — cinnamon, guaiac wood, myrrh, and vanilla in a dense and enveloping oriental composition of remarkable presence and persistence. Available at Maison Diaphane, official reseller in Angers, for €195. Free shipping for orders over €100 (in France).
Its olfactory pyramid is structured around a warm, spicy, and woody heart of cinnamon-guaiac wood-cedar-sandalwood, preceded by a bright and slightly citrusy bergamot-bitter orange-rose opening, and extended by a deep and balmy amber-myrrh-patchouli-vanilla base. In Eau de Parfum, the composition unfolds all its oriental warmth and lasts 8 to 10 hours.
Oud Cannelle is a deep spicy woody oriental fragrance with a noticeable sillage, ideal for evening wear and cold seasons, worn equally well by women and men.
What is myrrh and how does it change the base of the composition?
Myrrh is a resin extracted from the Commiphora tree — with balmy, slightly bitter, slightly smoky, and subtly incensed facets. It is distinct from styrax and olibanum (frankincense) in its more bitter and earthy dimension. In oriental bases, it brings a gravitas and complexity that amber or vanilla alone cannot produce. In Oud Cannelle, it is what prevents the base from becoming sweet — it introduces a slight balmy bitterness that keeps the composition deep rather than sweet.
What is the difference between Oud Cannelle and Oud Baie Rose — the two La Closerie orientals?
Oud Baie Rose is a floral and luminous oriental — spicy pink berries, Damask rose, jasmine sambac, soft balmy base. It captivates with its floral lightness. Oud Cannelle is a woody and spicy oriental — cinnamon, guaiac, myrrh, dense base. It asserts itself with depth. One is a rose with oud, the other is an oud with cinnamon. Two radically different oriental directions for the same house.
Guaiac wood — what is it and what is its role in Oud Cannelle?
Guaiac wood is a tropical wood with smoky, slightly medicinal, and slightly earthy facets — similar to vetiver in its dry dimension, but smokier and less earthy. In perfumery, it gives woody compositions a slightly burnt depth that distinguishes them from creamy woody scents. In Oud Cannelle, it combines with cinnamon to create a spicy-woody heart of remarkable density — it is what gives the composition that slightly ember-like character that is its signature.
Which season is Oud Cannelle suitable for?
Autumn and winter exclusively, and all evenings. Its spicy woody density and balmy base flourish in cooler weather. It is a fragrance for cold seasons, for evenings that deserve such a presence, for intimate moments and heavy coats. In summer, its warmth can feel overwhelming even in the evening.
