Our verdict on Rose Oud: Acquired

Divisive at first, this one's a real 'wait for the dry-down' scent. Initial blasts can be jarring, but patience rewards you with a genuinely delicious, sophisticated jammy rose that's worth the journey. Not for the faint of heart or the impatient.

About

Opens with a boisterous burst of sweet, tart raspberry and apple, laced with a hint of lemon and creamy toffee. Quickly, a potent musky rose emerges, softened by a touch of saffron and earthy patchouli. The dry-down transforms into a succulent, almost gourmand rose-oud, with warm vanilla and amber embracing the persistent floral heart, leaving a lingering trail of sophisticated sweetness.
