Launched in 2012 by Jo Malone London, Velvet Rose & Oud is an Oriental Floral fragrance crafted by perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin. The composition opens with the rich sweetness of Damask rose and cloves, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. As it settles into its base notes of agarwood (oud) and nougat, the scent transforms into a complex blend that balances floral elegance with spicy warmth. This fragrance encapsulates the essence of luxury and comfort, making it an ideal choice for those who appreciate nuanced olfactory experiences.

Application Tips
Apply Velvet Rose & Oud lightly to pulse points — it blooms gradually on skin, so letting it sit for an hour after application allows its full character to emerge. It pairs well with other Jo Malone scents but works best alone in cooler weather when its warm base notes shine through.

The story behind the bottle.
