OUD ROSE
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
A Bulgarian Otto rose soliflore from the 2015 Section d'Or - a lush, full-blooded rose veiled in peach, tuberose-edged greenness, styrax, and clean musk. Beautiful in the first hour, divisive in the dry-down.
A modern, peppery take on rose and oud that's smooth and romantic, with a fruity kick. It's affordable, but be warned: some find the patchouli in the drydown a bit much, and the berry can lean artificial for some noses. Approach with an open mind.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Lush damascena rose with peach and styrax sits warmest in autumn and cool spring; the white-musk dry-down is too soft for deep winter and the rose body too rich for high summer.
Occasions
Rose-soliflore character with carnation and styrax is a natural fit for date and formal evenings; not for sport, and too distinctive for casual day or office without cooler weather.
Seasons
A winter perfume through and through - made for cold, dark months.
Occasions
While its sweet, sensual nature makes it perfect for dates and evening wear, the strong rose and oud accords mean it's a bit much for the office. It can be dressed down for casual evening events, but it's not suited for sporty activities.
