Ombre Nomade

This is an important review for me, because Ombre Nomade is a very important scent to me. Truthfully, I didn't like it when I first smelled it. I'd heard/seen it glazed to high heaven by the YouTube influencers for months and was curious what the fuss was about. I've never really enjoyed the LV aesthetic much. 90% of LV bags you see these days are fake and people carrying them sometimes seem a bit desperate to me. As if they need you to know how much they love money, or love buying fake leather goods. It is as if everyone who wears LV or carries their bags deliberately goes against what LV is actually all about. But I went into the LV store in Dubai Mall and sprayed it (and Imagination and Pacific Chill) on paper and was not impressed (I am still not fully convinced of the other two either in fairness)... Ombre Nomade seemed obnoxious somehow. Shouty, over-ostentatious. Self-obsessed. A lot of the hallmarks of the less salubrious side of Dubai's great and good and a few that only pretend to be both. Why would I want to smell like that? Why would anyone? Nonetheless I kept hold of the paper and had a realisation later that day that, for a smell I supposedly didn't enjoy, I certainly was sniffing it a lot. I kept it in my pocket and found myself reaching for it in the same way I subconsciously sniff my wrists when I'm wearing a fragrance I really enjoy. Say what you want about Ombre Nomade, but it is addictive even when you don’t notice. About six or seven weeks went by and I found myself noticing it on other people and going into the LV stores whenever I went to the malls here to test it again and again. Somewhere along the way it went from dislike to interested to like and then to love without me really thinking about it. I finally sprung for a bottle before Christmas more out of blind necessity than anything else. I wasn't sure why but I needed it in my life. To my amazement, it kept growing on me. We're well past "love" now. Much as I dislike agreeing with the influencers and YouTube hype-merchants, I have to say that if I lost my entire collection but had the opportunity to save one fragrance, it would be Ombre Nomade. I don't believe in signature scents but this is mine. It just makes sense to me in a way I cannot readily explain. I put it on to relax myself. It has a tangible, very real de-stress effect on me in a way I've never experienced with any other fragrance. I feel taller, stronger, better looking and smarter when I wear it. I feel better about what is causing me sadness or anguish. It makes me happy. I don't mean when you wear a fragrance and wearing it makes you happy that you smell like that, I mean that wearing it viscerally engenders a dopamine rush for me. It literally does make me happy in a real, actual chemical way. The oud in this is heavy and unapologetically animalic, and the magic here is how the different other accords work with it. The lovely rich rose and incense sweeten but do not detract. The benzoin and saffron make it richer and spicier but in a sweet way. That iconic raspberry note is sour and melds so beautifully with the sourness hints in the oud. All together it is impossibly rich and powerful. It is transportive. Not to another place but to a better, more put together version of myself. I feel sorry for the people who hate this because most cannot see how good this bit of blending from Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud is. "Masterful" is a word that springs to mind. "Masterpiece" would be another. This is one of the greatest examples of perfume blending ever and this is a hill I am prepared to die on. Honestly, I do believe it is that good. It is a true masterpiece, if ever there was one in perfumery. I wasn't ready for this the first time I smelt it and it has literally changed how I experience fragrance. Back then my favourite daily wearer was Blue Talisman but I now think it is too sweet. I loved AdP Colonia as well and now find it lightweight and a bit anaemic for me, even its richer and better current iteration. I gravitate more toward heavier oud and leather accords than I used to and find myself craving and searching for echoes of Ombre Nomade in almost everything I wear now. This is why I was so happy to discover the wonderful Nouveau Monde which I also reviewed recently. It is a daily wearer that has Ombre Nomade DNA running through it. It is fair to say I've been well and truly bitten by the oud bug. I've realised that, although Ombre Nomade is very strong, it is very versatile and a lot more wearable than it is given credit for. The FragCom view is that it is too strong and too heavy for daily wear and I would disagree - strongly - with that view. You just need to be careful with it. Overspraying it is not cool or smart. But being gentle and respectful with it means you absolutely can wear to the office or even on an airplane. Being a bit more liberal with it on a night out is also fine and it grows in strength and power in a linear relationship the more you spray. A little goes a long way and a lot goes forever. Interestingly, I have never gone nose blind to this in the way I can do sometimes with other strong fragrances. It emanates off you even after 12 hours of wear and it smells as good then as when it first went on the skin. I can usually still smell it on me the morning after having sprayed it the morning before. I hate the term "beast mode" but Ombre Nomade is in this exalted category. I think, if I reflect on it, the mistake I made with Ombre Nomade in the beginning is that I thought people were wearing it for hype and because they wanted others to know they were wearing it. For a fragrance this strong, you can probably see why. But now I see that I had things round the wrong way. It is the opposite to a fragrance you wear to impress people. It is strong and polarising enough to make that impossible. Many who smell it will not be impressed by it and you cannot control that. You dont wear this if you care what others think of you. The beauty of Ombre Nomade is in its self assurance and, by extension, the self assurance I feel when I wear it. It invalidates any care of what anyone else thinks. It is the perfect example of choosing a fragrance you love because you love it and not for the benefit of anyone else's view. If you think about it, there is something to be said for that. In my case, it arrived into my life at a time where I had been putting a lot of effort into being the best version of myself and trying my best to stop caring what others think of me. To be kinder to myself and see myself in more positive terms. Ombre Nomade is a totem to that. It embodies the new me, my new life, my better everything. It is almost Bourdainian isnt it? Have a Negroni. Have two. Wear what you want. Do what you want. Enjoy your life. If it makes you happy then dont worry what others think. Live. Love. Enjoy. That is what Ombre Nomade smells like to me, and for me. And it is why I love it more than any person should reasonably love a blend of alcohol and oils that smells nice, in a glass bottle. Life is full of surprises and I am shocked as anyone that my favourite fragrance of all time, my signature scent if I were ever forced to choose one, would be a hyped Louis Vuitton heavy oud that costs hundreds of dollars a bottle. But here we are. And I'm good with that. Three Word Summary: This. Is. Me. Scent - 10/10 Drydown - 8/10 Sillage - 10/10 Bottle/packaging - 8/10 Performance - 10/10 46/50

Divisive scent. Some people will think you smell like a grandma. Some people will think you smell like kaka. Then, for the olfactory gifted individuals like you and me, you will smell like heaven. ;) But again, this is a scent that you have to wear for yourself, and not for others. If you can't find a decant to try it first, luckily, the secondhand market is strong and should be able to sell/trade it very quickly. I can't tell you if you'll like it, only that I really think you should try it. Now, my thoughts about the actual scent. This is a beautiful take on ROSE, which, on my skin, is the prominent note for most of the journey until the deep dry down (5-8 hours for me). Then you have a slightly dark oud to last all day. These two dance together throughout, but one will shine brighter than the other. On to the rose. To explain it better, I am going to use another fragrance in the same realm, Charon's Vail by Argos. C.V. has a very fresh/dry/metallic rose, like someone hands you a bouquet and you stick your nose directly into a petal and sniff. Ombre Nomade, however, the rose is "juicy". If you have ever been in a walk-in humidor at a cigar lounge, imagine that... now, instead of ever holding tobacco, only roses have been stored. That heavy, wet air becomes one with rose, and you almost feel like you can drink the scent. I hope that made sense(scents? lol) to some of you. I would assume it's the raspberry that adds this effect. The oud is enhanced by the saffron and incense, to give a leather a smoky leather accord. The oud is by no means an animolic style, I would say it's still on the fresher end of the spectrum, but definitely close to the middle of the scales. I think most people haven't tried something actually "barnyard-y", and it would be easy to assume this is to that level. However, if you have any experience in the realm, you know this just scratches the surface of intensity as far as those notes are concerned. I would go as far as to say that this could be a good beginner scent to try if you want to experience what oud accords can start to lean into. The two main notes dance with each other in a beautiful way that, for most of the journey, creates an addictive, juicy/heavy rose that has a dark mystery behind it. Strong enough to wear on the coldest days, but the rose is something I actually enjoy in warm weather as well. It's interesting because in cool/cold weather, I do between 3-5 sprays. However, with the sillage/performance of this, when it's warm out, 1-2 sprays still can last all day and has a nice projection without being overbearing. In fact, off my skin, the warm weather tends to bring out the most of the "juicy rose" effect I mentioned earlier. Again, I LOVE this scent. A LOT of you probably won't. But I can't stress enough that I think you should try it. Just like in cooking, try every flavor you can. Just because you don't like it doesn't make you wrong, but either way, you will add to your fragrance knowledge. *****TLDR***** Pretty cool, I guess. Try it out sometime maybe. If you don't like it we can scrap behind a Waffle House. LOL

Ombré Nomade is one of those fragrances that rarely shows up in the typical “Top 10” lists — and honestly, that makes sense. This scent isn’t designed for the masses. It’s an esoteric, niche-leaning statement fragrance that hits on a level most designer releases never reach. From the first spray, it’s dark, woody, and wrapped in a deep, almost mysterious rose note. The rose here isn’t fresh or romantic — it’s shadowed, resinous, and commanding. There is a dominant, refined energy to this fragrance. It doesn’t try to smell like anything else, and I genuinely can’t compare it to anything I’ve experienced so far. Most scents have echoes of something familiar. Ombré Nomade stands alone. Performance is beast mode. This is easily up there with Paco Rabanne 1 Million and Dior Sauvage in terms of projection and longevity. It clings to clothing, aura, and memory. Throughout the day, every time I catch a whiff, it’s a moment. Rich, intoxicating, almost addictive. This is not for the crowd-pleasing nice guy. This is for the dominant man. The darker, more self-assured personality with taste, presence, and unmistakable style. If that’s you — this is a signature scent contender. Rating: 5/5 A mesmerizing, killer fragrance. Unique, seductive, powerful. Absolutely worthy of a permanent place in my collection.

Tried it at the LV store, and it smelled incredible on me. But the projection is insane — it was still filling entire rooms hours after I sprayed it. This is a powerhouse, and the scent profile is definitely not for everyone. Some of my friends loved it, while others absolutely hated it. It’s a very unique and mature scent — probably not something younger guys would gravitate toward. It feels more suited to someone in their late 20s and up. Definitely try it before buying. This is a huge no‐no for blind buying Update: Just got my bottle. I sprayed it twice and wore it to work, and it’s nowhere near as offensive as I expected. My co‐workers said things like, “Yeah, I can smell it when you walk past — it smells quite nice.” I think I was overthinking it before buying. As the wearer, it feels like you’re projecting a massive cloud, but the actual scent bubble is much more controlled. It’s a unique, rich scent that works beautifully in winter without overwhelming the room. The scent itself is absolutely beautiful. A true masterpiece. But I still think it’s a huge no‐no for blind buying — not because of the projection, but because the scent profile itself is extremely polarizing. Some people will love it, and some will absolutely hate it.

I had been trying to choose between Dior Oud Rosewood and Dior Oud Ispahan which are both very good when along came LV Ombré Nomad to steal the purchase. The decider was my wife who thought the Dior ones didn’t work for her on my skin and in the case of Oud Rosewood (the one I preferred) a little old lady vibe. I would have all three of if I could. Ombré Nomade is loud has the same or a similar agarwood note as Oud Ispahan. It is very strong. I wore it to work before Christmas having applied four sprays (two to the chest one each side of my neck). I thought as the office is a huge open space with high ceilings and air conditioning that it would not fill out the surrounding space. Such is the power of ON that it did fill the air as I got comments (nice ones). I did become a bit self aware after that so I’d recommend spraying under your top at work or limit to one or two sprays. It takes ON some time to settle into a more balanced scent. For me it was hours before the more woody ambery aspect was appreciable. I do not get any smokiness or anything animalic personally. It is dark and resinous not sweet. Very happy with my bottle. Happy while buying another Dior the salesman put in a 10ml of Oud Ispahan so happy days.

this fragrance is a work of art! STORYTIME:- we are a group of 5 guys and we all departed from each other due to higher education. we all left for different countries to pursue our bachelor's degrees. after 5 years one of our friends had sent us a wedding invitation! he planned his wedding during the winter month of December in Dubai. we all met each other after such a long time in Dubai and it is such a beautiful feeling meeting your old mates after a long time. I remember one of my friends was wearing this fragrance and literally everyone was talking about his fragrance! he was walking around the wedding hall and I could smell him from far away, I would say 5 feet away. the ladies turned their heads around as he walked past them. he literally smelt like a filthy rich mafia! I had to ask him which fragrance he was rocking, LV Ombre Nomad. even my friend's bride complimented him when he got up to the stage to congratulate them. this fragrance is next level! he legit filled up the whole hall with his LV Ombre Nomad. get this fragrance if you want to smell like a super-wealthy guy from Dubai who lives his life to the fullest! the best fragrance I have smelt in my life!

Has a slightly sweet, juicy richness quickly followed by a beautiful jammy rose, but it comes across as an almost black rose, deep, and velvety. This leans into a dark, brooding woody base, surrounded by a smoky, incense-laced warmth and thick amber. Everything is rich and heavy. I do pick up on an oily smell, it reminds me of an oil slick or oil paint, giving it a uniqueness but also some polarity. This is definitely a thick, commanding fragrance with a strong presence and weight to it. I had this on my wishlist for the longest time partly because I’m a big rose fan, and because of how much hype it got. I never really understood the “stinky” comments some people mention. To my nose, it’s bold, but not unpleasant. And as it dries down, it becomes noticeably smoother, more refined, and approachable. It does feel somewhat situational, but interestingly, when I wore it to work, I got multiple compliments from the same person, which surprised me. I expected it to be far more polarizing than it actually was. This being my first rose-oud fragrance, I’m really glad I waited and went for this one. It feels like a strong introduction to the style.

Ombre Nomade is the G Wagon of fragrances: absurdly powerful, impossible to ignore, and built to dominate whatever “street” it’s on. Yet it still carries an elite elegance and sophistication. And, much like the G Wagon, you need to be a certain kind of person and in a certain tax bracket not just to pull it off, but to even want it in the first place. Best for cold nights and outings, this is not a crowd-pleaser and definitely not an everyday, anywhere scent. The opening hits with a blast of smooth oud and leather, touched by a faint sweetness and spice. As it settles, the woody and fruity notes come forward, revealing a polished dry down. It smells like unapologetic wealth. The kind backed by legitimate success, but with just enough mystery to make you wonder what deals went down in the shadows. The strength is nuclear. Borderline hostile. One spray is plenty, two is risky, and three will have people gasping for air and heading for the exit. This is a love-or-hate fragrance (I happen to love it), and it’s not a safe blind buy. You need real presence to pull it off. If you don’t have the confidence, it will wear you. Proceed with caution.

My absolute favourite of all time and my signature scent -- love at first sniff. On my skin, it develops like creamy, woody goodness. Rich. Pure luxury. Beautiful scent from first spray. Never fails to get compliments (and being stopped on the street and asked what I'm wearing!). It's versatile -- I wear it both during day and night, but do tend to keep it to night in summer months. It lasts ages both on the skin and on clothes and bedding. Sometimes stays in clothes even after being washed (some may not find this appealing but I personally do, as it provides the right amount of scent if I don't want to add any more). The last time I went home, over a year and a half ago, I borrowed my mum's jacket and -- believe it or not -- all this time later she says she hasn't taken it to the cleaners as it still smells like me (though quite faintly, of course). I truly have no words for how utterly excellent this perfume is. A genius creation I cannot recommend enough. If you can only have one perfume from LV, let it be this one. Ask for a sample and let your senses run wild. A perfect 10/10.

Simple but well done Rose oud scent that you only understand if you have a sense of the cultural nuance behind this scent profile. Beastly projection with harsh facets. Europeans and North Americans may finds this abrasive but my friends from the MENA region would understand what this is about. If you want 99% of the same scent without the LV tax buy Bold Body Oud by Abdul Samad Al Qurashi which is a little more bodied compared to this. I have both and I find both very respectable in their own way. LV leans a bit more delicate if at all that is. Fantastic scent regardless. I can see how some may find it abrasive and nauseating but by god this reminds me of taking a walk at 11 am at Dubai Hills Mall for no good reason. Very very very Khaleeji. Try before you buy. Lasts for days and weeks even if not months . I accidentally sprayed a little on my camera strap one time and it still smells like it. This has been going on for 3 yrs now. No joke !

I have a sample of this and over sprayed on accident haha. I did one spray on each side of my neck, one on the back of my neck and one on each shoulder. I figured that would be like 2.5 sprays of an actual bottle? The scent was monstrous but so good! It was kind of a weird ride since I felt like I was getting choked out for the first hour. The oud is great. I'm not super experienced with oud, but this one smelled crisp and clean, not dirty at all. I would catch sweetness randomly throughout the night but there was never a solid phase where I could definitively say I can smell the raspberry. Overall, I'd say this is a banger. Nobody around me complained even though I was self-conscious about it. I asked quite a few people, and they said yeah its strong but it's nice. Weirdly enough, I think you can pull this off in casual settings with friends or something more formal but just be cautious of sprays.

To be honest, at first, when I gotten this, I did not enjoy it. However, with time and learning more about the world of oud, I can really appreciate it. This scent is quite difficult to some noses, however, if you take your time with it, and see how it develops, you will find why it is so popular. The oud, rose and slight raspberry accord in this blend impeccably. The raspberry adds a touch of sweetness which makes the oud more rounded. Not to mention, this is one of the longest lasting and projecting oud fragrances (that I have tried) I get around 10-15 hours, projects well in the first 8 hours, then slows off. Only downside, is Ombre Nomade is rather quite difficult for me to wear, as I only have a handful of days which this would suit it. Nonetheless, I still believe this scent is worth all the money, it is too good. 8/10

There are three great creations on this world. 1. The Holy Mother Mary 2. The human race 3. And Ombré Nomade ❤️❤️❤️ I love this stuff. I get to truly embody a cross between a muslim prayer room, a donkey shed, and a horse who rolled around in it's own piss. Amazing stuff. Just a light 82 sprays of this stuff with 73 sprays of Pur Oud then toss on the entire bottle of mystery pure oud attar I bought for 8000 dollars in Saudi Arabia after being held at gun point and forced to buy it and then I'm good for a few months without bathing or deodorant or trimming my nails because at spray 30 they just fall off and I don't even need to comb my hair after a few sprays of this stuff but that's just because I'm balding at the age of 19 and it's become hopeless. 10/10 fragrance for sure arf arf 😻

Dark, sweet, Amberous. This is a profile that is normally never love on first scent, but something keeps pulling you to that tester strip or your hand where you initially sprayed it. After a few more visits, your nose begins to change. Your chemistry begins to evolve and expand. You tell yourself “not as bad as I remember” convincing yourself to get a 5ML decant to test it on a full wear. Little did you know you were already trapped in Jacques Cavallier’s web. There is no escape. Le Sables Roses is still my personal favorite, but as she is smooth and comforting, her older brother Ombré Nomade is bold and daring. Louder and unapologetic. Scent profile: 9.5 Sillage: enormous Projection: room filling Personal rating: 9.5/10 Two sprays is enough for any occasion.

I tried this in the LV store in Paris not long ago and thought it smelt like a farm. Fast forward to yesterday i tried it again and icl it's really nice. It's definitely VERYYY oud heavy but i don't get an animalic smell from it I just get his gorgeous combo of rose, raspberry, incense and oud mixed together to create a strong yet a very well blended fragrance. Price point is kinda crazy for a designer though but that's always been LV. It is nice that these are refillable though and cost roughly half the price to refill compared to buying a new bottle. If you're into oud that has a touch of fruitiness and if you have $400 spare then icl it's kinda worth it especially if you wanna use it for those special occasions, fancy dinners etc.

I will be on that 50 percent who love this .. I'm on my mid 40's who Smoke Cigars and Drink High end Neat Bourbon Whisky (not flexing but trying to prove a point) and I already past the stages of the younger mass appealing colognes ( which I still appreciate) All I can say is ... This is a Beast Mode Masterpiece!!! This packs a punch once you spray it ,The Rose , Saffron and Raspberries combo is sensational ... and It dries down with this sweet ambery Oud that I can't stop smelling it on my wrist hahaha This reminds me of some one who is sophisticated , Well mannered and Have an Aura on any places and situation This is a mass appealing oud In my opinion , This is my most expensive Blind buy win( not a blind buy safe btw )

I tested a lot of Ombre Nomade-ish fragrances before finally buying this and nothing really scratched the same itch. The first time I properly tested Ombre Nomade, I knew. This is not just another Middle Eastern rose-oud. It’s darker, smoother, more refined. The rose doesn’t feel synthetic or powdery. The oud isn’t harsh. And there’s this subtle leathery depth that makes it feel masculine and powerful. One spray is enough and it fills the space without being messy. It smells expensive and controlled. It’s the kind of scent that makes you feel like you own the room. Yes it’s expensive. But after trying so many similar vibe fragrances, I realized I was just delaying the inevitable. Nothing gives me this exact feeling.

Right after spraying, there is a strong dominance of dark notes of oud, smoke, and leather. As time passes, however, the sweeter facets of rose, raspberry, and saffron gradually come to the forefront, while the darker elements remain in the background, adding depth and character. It is a rich, complex, and profound fragrance. Anyone who considers this perfume unpleasant should probably change hobby, because they clearly have no understanding of fragrances whatsoever. It is surprisingly wearable all year round, provided that you adjust the number of sprays and keep it mainly for evening occasions during the warmer summer months.

This fragrance is very loud. Very strong amber woods. Not cheap, not weak. Big quality. You smell one time, you know this is serious thing. It punch nose hard, but good punch. If anybody say no oud in here: they wrong. LV use real shit, real ingredients. Not fake fairy story. People with nose, they know. The money people pay and the hype this fragrance get: this why LV is respected. They use high quality material, no shortcut, no bullshit. Pay big, get big. Respect you. Respect your loud chemical attack. Respect your compliments. Respect your beast-mode juice. Get some fucking confidence, people. Smell loud. Stand tall.

If you’re looking for a starter style Oud fragrance, this could be it. People compare it to Oud maracuja but I don’t see it much. But if you’re debating to choose one or the other and you like the idea of wearing it often. Well ombré nomade is the winner, it’s much more versatile than Oud maracuja. I wouldn’t say you need both but overall money value wise and the fact that LV provide refills, LV is a cheaper alternative long term. £320 for LV & £375. Refills on LVs are usually £70-80 cheaper compared to the retail price. So overall you’re saving £140 ish. And performance wise.. they both nuclear.

Where. Do. I even. Begin... I like my coffee black, whiskey neat, and my family aint selling our 3rd generation land. You might drive a Harley or saddle a mustang. One might even become CEO overnight on this. Not sure about all the Arab stuff, never been there. Scent 12/10 - upfront aromas of incense/oud perfectly followed up with a smooth yet alluring blend of the smokey rose and raspberry. The first couple times you think OK, but then you keep smelling it and you're like wtf is this magic. Wish I had more occasions to wear this to; It IS niche but lovely and bold. No hiding here folks

My one and only review. This is the absolute best fragrance out there. That is if you have the balls to wear it. This is not for the faint hearted. It is effing loud, it is harsch, it is all about being a man and giving zero shit. All day longivity, be gentle on the trigger. One or two sprays max. You will murder people around you with three sprays. Colleagues will be offended, wives will get migraine, children will vomit and pets will get multiple strokes... The price yeah, it’s a lot but worth every penny. This is a grenade !! 10/10 !!

Unlike some reviews, what they say on Fragrantica about Ombre Nomade is real. This is a one or two spray fragrance, you either love or hate it, it’s dry down could be measured by AM/PM, and it can wear you if you don’t wear it. The phrase “intoxicating” gets thrown around a lot with fragrances but Ombre Nomade might be so strong your brain is probably being chemically altered as the fumes penetrate the blood/brain barrier. Think of it like smelling gasoline, you pull your head back in recoil but you go back for another sniff. I love it.

Love this fragrance! Although leaning masculine with oud but raspberry and rose gives a touch of jammy deep sweetness and that’s the feminine aspect that softly balances it. Then amber gives it a nice glow to overall frame the warmth halo around it. Complex and intriguing. Louis Vuitton’s DNA is big on this one. Sillage is enormous and longevity is beast. The only thing that’s bothering me though, is the benzoin note on the dry-down and when it pops out, gives a gasoline smell that can be somewhat screechy.

A beautiful fragrance especially once it's had some time to dry down and mellow. I'm glad I tried it at home first though because I did three sprays and that's WAY too much. This stuff is an absolute beast, you need to be very judicious with it. Which is nice, because it's very costly so it will go a long way vs some other LV fragrances that require many more sprays. NOT blind buy safe, but definitely go check it out at a store.

A very refined fruity rose oud, nicely done! However, Oud 36 Nuit is 95% similar, was released earlier and outperforms this for a fraction of the cost Dont shoot the messenger.. Update: 17 Sep 2020 Dont mind me, this stuff is too stunning! The similarity to oud 36 nuit still stands, but ON absolutely kills it in quality of ingredients, smoothness, refinement and also performance. In my top 3 rose/ouds of all time

This thing smells so good and expensive, love at first snif. I want it for me but once I smelt it on him....... Hmmm I almost lost my marbles and all home training. This oud is not animalic or funky at all, it smells very lush & sexy and the addition of the raspberry (quite present on my skin) is just so amazing. Deffo prefer it to Oud maracuja (That one is beautiful too but very very bold & sweet).

Where do I even begin? This is probably the best fragrance I've ever smelled however it isn't super practical for everyday wearers. It's very mature and dark and luxurious. However if I was a bit older or if I went to more formal events, I'd definitely be wearing this more but I would definitely pick up a full bottle. And I have a dupe of it but nothing really hits the same as Ombre Nomade.

Definitely more of a crowd pleaser than I usually wear, but it is such a clean and sexy smell that I have to say it is a new favorite. Great club fragrance, for my younger friends. Lovely office or date night scent too. If you want clean, sexy, and masculine while also adding a little danger and sex appeal, I think this would be a great fit for what you are looking for.

This one really grew on me as it aged. At first was very strong then settled nicely some very appealing sweeter notes came out with the oud to compliment it perfectly. It has great protection and extremely long lasting. I'm finding anything with oud to last extremely long on my skin and love when they have some raspberry in them also and then a calming vanilla dry down.

This is no doubt in my mind my favourite fragrance of all time. ON just embodies success and that I have my life together and it’s better than yours. I wear this fragrance to my office and almost everyday I have people complementing me. ON is a very mature scent for those who feel dignified. The oud and rose is unlike any other fragrance i’ve smelt. 10/10

A masterpiece. The blend of Oud, smoke and raspberry is an original creation, which also smells heavenly. There is no rose in this fragrance. Do not mistake the very sweet raspberry with roses. Do 2-3 sprays for an occasional use and no one will be offended, it’s not a crazy beast like they’re saying on TikTok, but it is a serious compliment getter.

I asked a stranger what fragrance they were wearing for the first time, and was slapped in the face with the $1000 price tag. It is so good, but I will be researching dupes instead. Maybe one day I will be in a financial situation where I can drop that kind of cash on a fragrance, but I’m not looking to spend 2.5 years of perfume money on this.

Grew up going to Buddhist temples and going camping. I’m a sucker for this type of scent. Took one whiff at the store and said “take my money please”. Hard to explain it but like, a bit dirty, from being nearby lumber or burning lumber type dirty; in a subtle way. Like a luxurious version of a bbq pit master just hovering over smoke all day.

Love this and my decant is so potent- but this is like Tuscan Leather 2.0, anyone else agree? Has that deep perfect leather and sweetness reminiscent of raspberry. But this adds rise which works so well. The blending here is truly 10/10 but theres no way I would ever get a full bottle when my decant will last me decades... Masterpiece imho

A beautiful buttery-smooth amber oud; elegance personified. It's a dark scent without being oppresively heavy; I have no idea where the hate for this I'm seeing here is coming from but if you actually like perfumes, this is a stellar pick (provided you have so little respect for your money that you'd pay the MSRP without blinking).

I really love this scent, but only for men. I was pretty surprised seeing it stated as 'unisex'. There is nothing feminine to be found. It's a vast desert, leather boots, beard, sweat, tan skin, very very masculine and dominant. This is the type of scent that will make women either drop their pants or run away.

Just a bit a guidance on how to fairly assess this fragrance: Do not spray this on strip or skin and immediately press your nose against the slick and render judgement. Give this time to develop. You will get an all-together better impression. This really shines in the mid to late dry-down. Its glorious!

I finally bought my first LV. This smelled so good, and has NO REAL dupes. (looking at you Jean Lowe) Had to buy it. -400 euros. The incense is out of this world, now the oud is very very natural smelling, i've smelled a TON of synthetic oud's and yeah.. this isn't it. Very metallic and animallic. 10/10

LV's Ombre Nomade is an opulent oud and rose fragrance by perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud. This smells incredible in the air and I love the performance of this fragrance on my skin. I was not expecting to like this as much as I did. If you enjoy oud as I do, you gotta get your nose on this.

This is the scent of a night journey in the heart of the desert. A deep, dark, and never-forgotten signature. The powerful Oud note is wrapped so warmly by rose and incense that you feel like you are carrying an ancient, timeless secret. This fragrance is the embodiment of courage and mystery.

I disagree with İSKENDER. It does not smell like Noir de Noir. You can smell the obvious vanilla/chocolate notes on the Noir de Noir. I can smell the Oud and Fruit more on this. I enjoy them both and rotate them both for my winter dinner dates with the wife. You only need one pump.

Masterpiece. 10/10 rose-oud combo. I love rose and the oud makes it masculine for me to wear. Retailing for $400 USD, the price is hard to justify. This is a statement maker, room filler giving power and dominance vibes. If you are not careful, this fragrance will wear you.

COMMANDING MASCULINE FEARLESS SEDUCTIVE MUSKY DOMINATING WOODY AMBER ROSE ANAMALIC SCENT 👃 NOT FOR EVERYBODY, NOR THE FAIT OF HEART. IF YOURE BROKE YOU WONT UNDERSTAND IT. THIS PERFUME IS A FULL PRESENCE AND A COMPLETE STORY OF A CLASSY SUCCESSFUL ALPHA MAN. PERIOT.

This has really grown on me and i love it. Smells somewhat familiar also. It’s nice scent if you like oud smell. It’s strong scent so i would say 3-5 sprays is enough atleast for me. Not office safe tho but otherwise i feel it’s pretty versatile at colder months.

I got a chance to test this one out and it is GORGEOUS It reminds me of what I think and Opium Den would smell like. It's so sexy, dark, and mysterious. I see a lot of comments saying "no oud" which might be why I like it so much! I'm so sensitive to ouds.

Such a great scent. My last bottle is a bit weaker than older batches but still love it so much. This new refomulation seems to be more fruity which i like a lot. Only thing im regret is i got the 100ml instead of the 200 of this batch.

This isnt my usual scent profile but idk why I like it so much. This is one of the best oud scents to my nose its perfectly blended and I can smell the other notes clearly as its not overwhelming. I will 100% wear this a lot in winter.

met an arabian men who wore this and tried to gatekeep it. Once i finally found out about this; I am brought to a whole new realm of sweet, oud, middle eastern vibe. Im rocking this all day 10/10 for me for sure.

The scent trail on this is intoxicating. I mean i can smell my own trail, which normally one is not supposed to lol. This should give you an idea how monstrous the sillage on this one is.
