Rose Oud Palao No. 21 — Inspired by Diptyque Oud Palao Eau de Parfum (2015)

A powerful rose-and-oud fragrance with dark wood, tobacco and resin. Rose provides richness rather than freshness, while vanilla and labdanum soften the smoky, animalic base.

Fragrance Notes

Top Notes

Bulgarian rose and saffron-like spice. The opening establishes the fragrance’s first burst of freshness, greenery, fruit or spice.

Heart Notes

Laotian oud, tobacco and patchouli. This middle stage reveals the main identity of the scent once the opening begins to settle.

Base Notes

Vanilla, labdanum and smoky woods. The drydown provides depth, texture and the longest-lasting impression on skin and clothing.

Overall Scent Summary

A powerful rose-and-oud fragrance with dark wood, tobacco and resin. Rose provides richness rather than freshness, while vanilla and labdanum soften the smoky, animalic base. Best worn during autumn, winter and formal evenings, especially for black-tie events, luxury dinners and cold-weather nights.

Estimated Longevity

• EDT: approximately 8–10 hours on skin.
• EDP: approximately 11–14 hours on skin, with a richer base and stronger presence.

Longevity is an estimate, not a performance guarantee. Skin chemistry, weather, spray count and fabric can change the result.

Style & Wearing Guide

Pair with velvet, dark tailoring, leather and gold accents. Use two to four sprays for professional or shared indoor spaces, and one additional spray for outdoor or evening wear.

Perfumer’s Note

“This interpretation keeps the recognisable olfactory idea clear while refining the transitions from opening to heart and drydown for practical modern wear.”
