Aoud Queen Roses

$80.00

There is no subtlety in the brief here, and Montale does not attempt any. Rose and oud from the first application, both materials pushed high, the bergamot opening barely a breath before the floral-resinous heart takes command. What makes Aoud Queen Roses work is the proportioning: the rose is loud enough to hold against the oud, and the oud dark enough to give the rose real contrast. Patchouli and amber anchor the base in warmth that outlasts the louder top, and the musk that carries it out is clean rather than sweet.

Why We Carry This

Rose-oud at this intensity level is what the Montale house was built to deliver. Aoud Queen Roses is the straightest line in Pierre Montale's catalog from intent to result: if the combination is what you want, this is where to find it done without compromise.
