Ottoman Rose

Crabtree & Evelyn Ottoman Rose is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013. Ottoman Rose opens with Rose, Pepper, Blackberry, and Nutmeg, settles into a heart of Taif Rose, Pepper, Pimiento, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Orris, Leather, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Crabtree & Evelyn's Ottoman Rose carries an Acquired verdict, a rose-led wear.

This 'expensive' and 'luxurious' rose scent is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with passionate reviews on both sides. Some find it a ghastly 'mish-mash of fruity goop', while others praise its potent blend of leathery rose and juicy berries as a 'marvelous' winter oriental. Buyer beware.

Given its 'oily EDP' quality and significant presence due to the dominant rose and warm spicy accords, this scent might be a bit too much for confined office environments. It shines in more intimate or formal settings, particularly evenings, where its luxurious and bold character can be fully appreciated.

About

Ottoman Rose opens with a vivid burst of jammy blackberry and a delicate touch of tangerine, swiftly joined by a bold, spicy rose heart. Pepper and saffron add warmth, while geranium and ylang-ylang create a floral depth. The dry-down is a complex symphony of soft leather, creamy sandalwood, and a powdery whisper of orris, grounded by the earthy sweetness of amber and vanilla, making for a rich, oriental experience.
