Аромат вдохновлен необычным творчеством дизайнера керамики Айрис Рот. Поэтому внимание авторов композиции было сосредоточено на материале, ольфакторных оттенках и текстурах, стремящихся передать языком ароматов магию керамики. Фирменный флакон Hidden Shades венчает крышка золотисто-терракотового оттенка с мраморными разводами, намекающими на глазурь, которой покрывают керамические изделия.Композиция игриво стартует миксом цитрусовых нот лимона и бергамота с тонким душистым ароматом сливы сорта Мирабель. Сердце парфюма наполнено пудрово-цветочными нотами цветущей вишни и медовым ароматом жасмина, окутанными бальзамическими оттенками лабданума. Тогда как база The House of Oud Hidden Shades утопает в пленительной симфонии сладковато-дымных бобов тонка, древесно-сливочного сандала, пряного пачули, смолистого бензоина, нежнейшего мускуса и ванили.
