The House of Oud Just Before for Unisex

The House of Oud Just Before – A Moment Suspended in Time

There’s a moment—right before something beautiful begins—that is filled with stillness, tension, and anticipation. Just Before by The House of Oud, available exclusively at Scents Angel, captures this fleeting yet powerful pause and turns it into an olfactory masterpiece. This unisex fragrance is a rich, sensual blend of spicy woods, soft florals, and golden amber, designed to envelop the wearer in warmth, mystery, and sophistication.

Just Before is not simply a perfume—it is an experience. One that invites you to step into a space where emotion brews and memories begin. At Scents Angel, we carefully select fragrances that evoke not only scent, but feeling, and Just Before is a shining example of this philosophy in action.

🌅 Scent Profile – The Magic Before the Moment

Top Notes: Bergamot, Lemon, Saffron
Heart Notes: Ylang-Ylang, Myrrh, Palo Santo
Base Notes: Vanilla, Benzoin, Sandalwood, Amber

From the first spray, Just Before opens with a radiant burst of bergamot and lemon—a citrus greeting that is both invigorating and refined. Saffron, that prized golden spice, quickly joins the mix, adding a warm, exotic depth that hints at the richness to come.

In the heart, ylang-ylang unfolds with its creamy floral softness, perfectly paired with myrrh, which brings a smoky, resinous quality that is both spiritual and grounding. Palo Santo, revered for its calming properties, adds a mystical, woody element that connects the ethereal top notes with the deeper, sultry base.

As the fragrance settles, it reveals a lush base of vanilla and benzoin, wrapping the skin in a sweet, balsamic richness. Sandalwood lends its creamy, milky quality, while amber glows softly like the final rays of a sunset. The dry-down is warm, sensual, and deeply comforting—perfectly capturing that "just before" sensation of something meaningful on the horizon.

🎯 Who Should Wear Just Before?

Just Before is for the emotionally attuned. It’s for those who savor the moments in between—the stillness before the curtain rises, the silence before a first kiss, the pause before a life-changing decision.

Ideal for:

• Men and women who enjoy amber-based scents with character
  

• Fragrance lovers seeking warmth, depth, and elegance
  

• Evening events, romantic dinners, or intimate settings
  

• Cooler seasons like fall and winter when cozy richness shines
  

• Those who value subtle sensuality over loud projection

This is not a fragrance that shouts. It speaks gently but with confidence—making it the ideal choice for those who want to leave a lasting impression without overwhelming the room.

🕰️ When & Where to Wear It

Just Before is a perfect companion for evening wear. Whether you’re dressing up for a dinner, attending a special celebration, or simply enjoying a quiet night by candlelight, it lends an intimate sophistication that feels just right.

Its rich composition makes it well-suited for colder months when warmer notes like amber and sandalwood bloom beautifully on the skin. It can also be worn during transitional seasons—spring or fall—for moments that call for calm, warmth, and quiet elegance.

⏳ Longevity, Sillage & Performance

• Longevity: 7–9 hours
  

• Sillage: Moderate – noticeable but never overpowering
  

• Projection: Close to skin – draws others in without shouting

Just Before offers a steady performance throughout the day or night. It begins with bright, aromatic energy, then softens into a cocoon of florals and woods before lingering as a warm, sensual whisper that stays with you.

🧴 Packaging & Design

True to The House of Oud’s artistry, Just Before is housed in their iconic hand-painted bottle, shaped like a polished stone and glowing with warm amber tones. The bottle’s abstract design reflects the essence of the fragrance itself—earthy, mysterious, and beautiful in its stillness.

Every detail, from the tactile finish to the golden brushstrokes, speaks of luxury and craftsmanship. This is a fragrance meant to be displayed, treasured, and experienced in every sense.
