The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2013 by Monotheme Venezia, Rose Oud is an Oriental Floral fragrance crafted by perfumer Maurizio Cerizza. The composition opens with the freshness of lemon and elemi, followed by a heart of rose and geranium that intertwines seamlessly with the rich warmth of oud and patchouli. The base notes of amber provide a deep, enveloping finish, creating a harmonious blend of floral and woody accords.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance directly to pulse points for the best effect. The top notes are vibrant but fleeting, so it’s important to let the heart and base notes develop fully over time. This scent reads better close to skin rather than from a distance.
