The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2020 by Dior and crafted by François Demachy, Oud Rosewood is a unisex fragrance that marries the rich depth of oud with the warmth of rosewood. The composition opens with raspberry and quince, providing a sweet yet fruity contrast to the earthier tones that follow. The heart notes of sandalwood and palisander rosewood create an enveloping warmth, while the base adds an intriguing touch of animalic musk and balsamic amber. This is a fragrance that balances sensuality with sophistication, making it both complex and approachable.
Apply Oud Rosewood sparingly — its base notes are long-lasting and will develop over time. The fruity top notes evaporate quickly, so reapply if you want to emphasize their freshness. Ideal for evening wear when the warm woods and musk can fully unfold.
