Velvet Rouge
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This is a bold, velvety rose-patchouli that'll make you feel like 'that girl' - or 'that guy'. It's not a safe blind buy thanks to the prominent patchouli, but for those who love a deep, dark rose, it’s an absolute stunner and a solid example of the genre.
Velvet Rouge is a surprisingly sophisticated, dark red rose for the price. Not a sweet pink number, this is a grown-up, elegant scent for those who appreciate a realistic, deep rose, albeit with performance that could be better.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its potent rose and earthy patchouli accords, combined with strong performance reports, make it too bold for an office setting. However, its luxurious and sensual character is perfect for dates and formal events, though for casual wear it depends on the wearer's confidence.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
This is a sophisticated rose that works best for evening events and romantic dates due to its elegant and seductive character. It's generally too rich for casual wear or sport, and might be a bit much for a formal office setting.
