Dreamy, elevated, classy Rose interpretation

This fragrance deserves Honorable Mention! It is an evening out or special occasion scent. I have combined this Sister with something lighter, fresher and brighter, so my 'Velvet Rose & Oud' can evolve into a mysteriously memorable daytime blend. The fragrance has some sparkle, a hint of smokey warmth and a heart hearing the beat of its own drum! Picture the freshness of the Rose floral combined with leather topped off with a hug of woods after the fresh rain. Complex but gorgeously well balanced. Thanks Jo!

Burns on Skin

Oh my if I'd only started using my cologne sooner I could have returned it. This stuff burns if sprayed on the skin and causes itching and redness. Such a disappoint.

Rose love!

If you love Red Roses or Rosewater and Vanilla from Jo Malone you won't regret adding this to your floral collection! I feel like this scent would be the perfect winter scent, bold and sensual. Great for snuggling next to your favorite person while sitting by a cozy fire or a romantic sleigh ride in the snow!

Fantastic Scent the Best of Malone

This one is fantastic. It is more for winter and perfect for the Holidays. If you spray it one a scarf or a coat sleeve it lasts practically forever and smells wonderfully intoxicating. It is worth the money.

Smoky, Romantic and Elegant

The "intense" quality of the Velvet Rose and Oud makes for a long lasting fragrance - especially for a cologne. Of all my luxury colognes, this is certainly a favorite. Think mature, sophisticated, intelligently designed. This is no little girl playing dress up. The oud adds the intensity, whereas the rose is a red, in full bloom, lush and ripe. If you are searching for light and fresh, the Red Roses cologne may favor better. I have both and I wear this on my power days or for a night out.

I love Jo Malone but this fragrance is much more rich and subtle than the standard rose scent. Definitely recommend!

my favorite

This is NOTHING like RED ROSES. It's a very intense, heavy rose. Fleur told me it's a "date night, sexy" scent and boy is she right. I wear it daily layered with the matching dry oil and just love it. If I'm not wearing this I'm wearing tuberose. I love layering this with diptyque's special edition and it's just heaven.

Gorgeous and sultry

Such a dark deep mysterious scent! The oud really brings out the inner most layers of the rose, making it more intense. This is very heady and perfect for winter, or here in SoCal, colder months. Beautiful and strong, and the scent lasts a long time!

not my favorite

I love Jo Malone, but this fragrance was too "dark." Perhaps better in the winter, but, still, not a favorite.

Velvet Rose and Oud is Intoxicating

I love this fragrance so much. What I want to say though is that I bought it online - and in the package I received, there were so many great perfume samples - I opened up the box and I thought it was Christmas! Thank you so, so much. I handed out the fragrances to the women that I worked with and they were so grateful. What an amazing job Nordstrom! As for Jo Malone's Velvet Rose and Oud - all I can say is that it is intoxicating.
