Oajan by Parfums de Marly is part of the Royal Essence 'Thoroughbreds' line and quickly earned its nickname as 'Christmas in a bottle.' Launched in 2013, this oriental fragrance for women and men opens with cinnamon and honey, creating an inviting gourmand character that evokes cozy holiday memories. Osmanthus adds a delicate floral touch to the heart, while benzoin, labdanum, and ambergris anchor the base notes with warm spices and balsamic richness. Despite its strong projection and longevity, community discussion has noted changes in the formula over time, leading some to miss the original version's distinct character.

How It Wears
Application Tips
Given its strong projection and longevity, one spray is usually sufficient. The honeyed cinnamon and osmanthus notes will last for hours, so consider that before layering or reapplying. This fragrance reads better in cooler weather when you can enjoy its full warmth without overpowering the surroundings.
