Which Should You Buy?
An opulent, enveloping rose-oud that drapes you in velvet and gold. This is not for the timid - it’s a show-stopping, ultra-luxurious scent that commands attention and leaves a haunting, unforgettable trail.
Oud Noir leans on the same rose-violet-into-oud shape that made Oud Satin Mood a modern icon, but flattens the satin, powdery blend into a simpler amber-vanilla base and trades hours of radiance for a closer, quieter skin scent.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Intensely rich, warm, and resinous with prominent oud, rose, and amber, this fragrance excels in fall and winter where its opulence and power shine. Its sweetness and density can be overwhelming in heat, but it works well in cool spring evenings.
Occasions
A statement scent best for formal events and special evenings, where its luxurious sillage and depth make an impression. Its boldness and lushness can be too much for the office or casual wear.
Seasons
The warm oud, amber and vanilla base reads best in cooler air, where the rose and violet opening doesn't get lost.
Occasions
The sophisticated oud-rose profile suits evening dates and dressier occasions rather than daily office wear.
