Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall Winter

The dense, spicy rose and oud core, plus warm gourmand and nutty nuances, make this ideal for cool to cold weather. Its intensity and richness bloom in fall and winter, but the sensual rose allows for opulent spring evenings.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its strong, luxurious projection and dark floral-oud character make it perfect for formal and romantic encounters, but it's often too dramatic for daily office or sporty use.

About

Velvet Rose & Oud Cologne Intense opens with a spicy spark of clove and green violet leaf, quickly blooming into a lush, dark heart of Damask rose. The rose is rich, jammy, and textural, draped in smoky agarwood and sweetened by nutty praline and nougat. The drydown is sumptuous and enveloping-sweet, warm, and woody-creating an aura of deep romance and luxury that is both contemporary and timeless.
