Versace Pour Femme Oud Oriental

I always had in mind oud like an arabian kind of quality, or let's better say tradition. Then, thought of Tom Ford's Oud Wood or Armani's private collection too. Then, an almost blind date I had with someone wearing a perfume with oud being the star. Do I like it? Yes! But not being the star in a perfume, just a touch of it to give this hypnotic/arabian night/romance that does the work. Everyone will be able to detect you with this note, so let's get straight to the point. I would never grab and test Oud Oriental for fun or even in general Versace's perfumes because I am not that familiar to the house. I did it just to kill some time and guys, I fell in love! First spray was like, hmmm I like it but how will it transform with time? Then, no. It smells like a smokey eyes woman with bold eyeliner and tanned skin. The exact smell of eye pencils. Lilly of the valley gives this effect some times. My night repair cream from this extract is what came in my mind immediately. After all, it smells exactly how new Barbie dolls smell, maybe a tad sweeter. Now I am so curious to explore oud in different houses and variations, but hope it has many facets. For sure I must explore more about Oud Oriental Pour Femme but guys, I can assure you this might be a signature scent easily but not an everyday to use one. I just don't know in which occation this could rock. Oud, saffron, heliotrope are doing the thing, faint or a whisper of vanilla/rose/sandalwood take them to the sky! p.s: Thank God not many people review/know it, so I must re-apply again and check lasting power & sillage. Pretend you didn't read this but I have also found out when and how to best use it! Again, it's crazy that all my favorites perfumes were born 2014!

I've had this scent for about a month and I have worn it in the house but not outside yet. It first sniff I wasn't all too pleased. I didn't dislike it but I didn't like it either. I am not upset about this because I had to have this all gold bottle on my vanity and though try not buy scent because of the bottle I just can't seem to control myself. At first spray the scent reminded me of watery raisins as it was lighter than I expected for a fragrance with Oud in it's name. About 10 minutes later the scent became a tough medicinal or more like Band-Aids to be exact. I decided to put it away and come back again to it later. I am so glad Id di because this scent is spectacular. I thought I would have buyers remorse but now I want a backup bottle. The scent smells like a glamorous woman who knows her worth. On my skin the rose is rather faint ( a good thing since I have a lot of rose/oud scents) but the saffron and sandalwood becomes so creamy and smooth. I love this scent so much!

Beautiful, long-lasting and great silliage. This is one of my favourites. The RRP is quite expensive but it can be easily found on sale. The bottle is beautiful and it smells very expensive. The main notes I detect are saffron, rose, oud and leather. It is very well blended. I find this leans feminine but it could be easily worn by a man. I sprayed this at night after taking a shower and when I woke up the next day I not only could still smell it on myself but my whole studio flat still smelled like it! The only other perfume that has done this for me so far is Baccarat Rouge 540! This makes me feel so elegant and luxurious when I wear it. It is not a jeans and t-shirt kinda scent, more of a silk robe and lingerie or dressed up kind of scent. I would wear this primarily for night time. I love wearing it around the house to feel good since there's nowhere to go right now... I will definitely re-purchase this if I ever run out. .

Ha Ha! i love that. jellyfish! All credibility gone. I was fortunate enough to obtain a sample of this. It is a very lovely floral/oud fragrance. Its name is accurate. On me the oud, leather and saffron are at the top of the list. The floral notes follow with the rose and heliotrope very evident. They sweeten this fragrance and aerate it. Perhaps its the heliotrope that provides the powderiness. This is no heavy oppressive oud fragrance but floral enough for any woman to feel relatively comfortable wearing. Definitely geared up for the western market. Moderate sillage and disappointingly only moderate longevity.

Not a big fan of the opening. Caught a bit of saffron but it really quickly disappeared. The drydown however is awesome! Very heavy on patchouli with a touch of good quality rose and a subtle oud note. Intresting and somewhat unique composition with it focusing on patchouli rather than rose with the oud that is given here a secondary role. I can tell it reminds me of estee lauder's wood mystique for the subtle oud accord. Nice fragrance overall with great quality juice that lasts easily for a day and just the perfect amount of sillage to be both intimate and alluring.
