"   Photo: courtesy of Caron Paris  Oud, the warm, woody resin derived from the exotic Aquilaria tree, has been a treasured perfume component for centuries\u2014but in recent years, its stock has soared. Contemporary fragrance companies Tom Ford, Juliette Has a Gun, Lisa Hoffman, By Kilian, and Creed have all paid homage to the Wood of the Gods. Caron Paris, the iconic French perfumery, is the latest brand to take on the resinous essence\u2014and the house aims to make their oud the best one yet. Combined with saffron, damask rose, jasmine, cedarwood, and musk, it&amp;#039;s described by Caron as &amp;quot;more complex and elaborate than traditional ouds.&amp;quot; It&amp;#039;s also hard to get: Until now, bottles of the blend have only been available at Caron&amp;#039;s Parisian boutiques. Its unpublicized existence has been spread by mere word of mouth\u2014which is why, when the scent officially debuts in November, it will be sold by the name Secret Oud. Look for it then at The Plaza Beauty in New York, and at select Henri Bendel, Bergdorf Goodman, and Saks Fifth Avenue locations starting in December. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
