Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Velvet Passion Oud EDT
Velvet Passion Oud delivers a divisive, high-impact take on fruity oud. It’s certainly not for everyone, with some calling it groundbreaking and others completely uninspired. Expect a bold, smoky fruitiness that demands attention, but don't expect it to redefine the genre.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Royal Loom Extrait
Juicy passionfruit and tobacco lead into saffron, rose and a deep oud and labdanum base. Oakcha's take on Dolce & Gabbana Velvet Passion Oud, and a strong, rich evening scent.

Season and Occasion Fit

Velvet Passion Oud

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its bold projection and strong, mysterious aroma make it unsuitable for an office environment, but perfect for a night out or special occasion. While not typically a 'casual' scent, its unique character could suit confident wearers for an evening event.

Royal Loom

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Oud, saffron and labdanum belong to the colder months, where their weight feels right. Heat makes them overpowering.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

The richness and smoke suit formal evenings and special occasions. It is too strong for most offices.
