The quiet intimacy of a rose garden at dusk, where the warm earth meets the delicate petals and the air is heavy with both floral fragrance and woody undertones.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Aoud Rose Petals by Montale was launched in 2005 and is crafted by Pierre Montale, offering a distinctive blend of floral and woody accords with the depth of oud. The fragrance opens with fresh and warm spices, creating an immediate tension that gives way to a heart of rose, which is both vibrant and delicate. As it settles into its base notes of woody and amber undertones, Aoud Rose Petals transforms into a scent of rich complexity, where the earthy warmth of oud complements the floral essence.

How to wear it

Apply Aoud Rose Petals in light layers to allow its rich complexity to unfold gradually. The oud base notes take time to develop fully, so it's best to apply a few hours before your desired wear time. This scent reads better close to the skin rather than from afar.
