Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Edinburgh

A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Jo Malone Velvet Rose & Oud (2015) - rose, oud and oud translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

Our Verdict - Velvet Tender Oud

Dolce & Gabbana's Velvet Tender Oud is a divisive beast: some praise its nuanced rose and gentle oud, while others decry it as a harsh, unoriginal clone. If you're after a Turkish Delight in a bottle, this might be your jam - or a synthetic headache.

Velvet Tender Oud

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Its potent longevity and average to strong projection make it less suitable for office wear, as it could be overwhelming. However, this rich, warm, and romantic scent is perfect for dates and formal evening events, where its luxurious character can truly shine.
