A True One-Of-A-Kind
Described by Erwin Creed, seventh-generation custodian of The House of Creed, as “an exceptional, one-of-a-kind, 80-year-aged oud of the highest quality”, the centerpiece of Oud Zarian is unmatched. Its presence imparts an olfactive depth and complexity that is truly singular.
The oud used by The House of Creed in Oud Zarian is legally sourced and covered by permits issued by CITES authorities. The supplier, Jalali, directly manages all local activities related to the production and transformation of the oud. Jalali is committed to a continuous improvement sourcing process that prioritises biodiversity management and respect for local communities, and is independently audited in the field each year. The estimated age of the oud at 80 years is the best approximation based on the size of the tree.
