Among rose/ouds that I've tried or own, I'd still probably give the edge to Armani Prive Rose d'Arabie, which is simply a little more welcoming, a little better blended in my opinion. Certainly this should be reserved for colder weather, and might not be ideal for scenarios where you do not want to stand out.Īny rose/oud fans should check this out.
Its power can be polarizing for both men and women, I can imagine. I'll echo that it's tremendous in terms of both projection and longevity. It's not a dry desert harsh scent, but rather something moist and welcoming. The rose isn't a sweet or heavy rose but rather a relatively fresh, bright rose. It's a rose/oud scent that sophisticated in both of its key elements. As far as I'm concerned, it dresses up better than it dresses down-I would wear this at night exclusively. It's also slightly powdery so I can see this leaning feminine for most people most of the time, but it's surely unisex enough for men to wear effectively and enjoy. It is in the family of rose/oud blends that are so commonplace, but the addition of labdanum is what gives Oud Ispahan its own character, a slightly feminine character, in the vein of the cosmetics smell that is a key aspect (for me) of Chanel Coromandel and Dior Homme Intense. Maybe something's happened to her in the intervening seven years, but the Ortegas we've grown to love would never have viewed Spock with such distrust and suspicion.Oud Ispahan is the first in-production Dior Privee I've tried on skin for the first time in a while, and much like its strong reputation, it does not disappoint.Īs most can attest, this starts off with a sharp, acerbic blast of labdanum that fades into a rose/oud mix that is softened by the heart of sandalwood along the way. I'm not sure that I like that Ortegas takes on the role of Stiles. In both scenarios, it's rather satisfying that the insurgent Romulan crew member (unnamed and scruffy-looking here but identified as Decius on TOS) suffers the same fate as his more noble and far-sighted commander.
