Louis Vuitton - Ombre Nomade

Louis Vuitton Ombre Nomade is a deep, smoky oud creation by Jacques Cavallier Belletrud, inspired by desert nights and Middle Eastern perfumery. Built around a powerful oud accord wrapped in incense, rose, raspberry and resins, it feels dense, mysterious and luxurious from the very first spray. In decant form, Ombre Nomade lets you enjoy this iconic Louis Vuitton signature more freely – for special evenings, layering, or whenever you want something truly atmospheric.

The fragrance opens dark and immediately intense, with agarwood (oud) front and centre. The oud is smoky, woody and slightly leathery, quickly joined by curls of incense that add a sacred, drifting-smoke effect. Hints of saffron and a soft, jammy raspberry nuance warm the composition, bringing a subtle red sweetness that rounds the edges of the oud without turning the fragrance gourmand.

As it evolves on the skin, Ombre Nomade reveals touches of rose and geranium. The rose note adds a velvety floral layer woven into the oud and smoke, while geranium brings a faint green-aromatic facet that keeps the heart from feeling flat. These nuances stay in the background, enriching the oud rather than dominating it.

The dry-down is anchored by amberwood, benzoin and birch. Amberwood and benzoin provide a warm, resinous glow, with balsamic, ambery sweetness supporting the darker oud. Birch introduces a refined smokiness and a hint of “leathered” wood, extending the trail and emphasizing the nocturnal, desert-fire character. The result is a long-lasting, enveloping scent that makes Louis Vuitton Ombre Nomade decant an excellent choice for lovers of bold, resinous oud fragrances.

Performance

Ombre Nomade is known for its outstanding longevity and powerful sillage. A few sprays create a dense cloud of smoky oud, incense and raspberry that can easily fill a room in the first hours. Over time, it settles into a rich amberwood–benzoin and birch-tinged oud base that remains present on skin and clothing for many hours, making it particularly suited to evenings and cold weather.
