The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Rose Oud by Nicolai Parfumeur Créateur was launched in 2013 and is a creation of Patricia de Nicolai. The fragrance opens with the vibrant freshness of osmanthus and raspberry, immediately drawing you into its lush embrace. As it unfolds, rose and oud take center stage, creating an intense yet harmonious blend that feels both familiar and exotic. Leather and powdery notes add depth, while amber and vanilla round out the composition with warmth and sensuality.

How to wear it

Apply Rose Oud to pulse points for an enduring warmth. The fragrance blooms slowly over time, so allow it to settle on your skin before layering. Best experienced close to the body rather than diffused into a room.
