Omanluxury Overdose is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Philippe Paparella-Paris. Overdose opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Jasmine, Iris, and Lily, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. Omanluxury's Overdose carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Divisive, to put it mildly. Overdose is a true love-it-or-hate-it fragrance, with its bold, effervescent citrus opening setting the stage for a much-debated, challenging, and often off-putting ambergris drydown. Definitely not a blind buy.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Given its strong performance and often overwhelming character, Overdose isn't ideal for office settings where subtlety is key. Its 'challenging' drydown could be problematic for formal events, but it shines in casual and active hot weather scenarios where its bold freshness can cut through the heat.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

An explosive burst of zesty grapefruit, bergamot, and orange kicks things off, sharpened by a hint of peppery spice and saffron. This vibrant citrus freshness eases into a surprisingly rich heart of white florals and green fig, before settling into a polarising base. Here, the salty, oceanic depth of ambergris clashes with warm tonka, earthy vetiver, and robust woods, creating an unusual, mineralic musk that lingers with tenacious strength.
