Atelier des Ors Rose Omeyyade I knew the moment I took the cap off that I’d found it. In a sea of rose ouds rising to popularity thanks to current trends, I’ve found my One. The balanced, everyday beauty. The scent profile is what you may be thinking. We don’t need to hash this out. Oud Bouquet, Shaghaf Oud, Oud Satin Mood, Arabians Tonka, Velvet Rose and Oud, Oud Mood, etc. etc, on and on. Yes, in its own way, yes. But here’s where Atelier Des Ors won me over... Blend and Wearability. This is the smoothest wear of any of these that I’ve experienced and with the right application can be worn year round without becoming cloying. I am not sure why every other version of this scent profile SCREAMS at the top of its lungs. Loud and obtrusive albeit lovely. However, I am not one to yell. Presence needn’t be loud to have impact, and this is what ADO seems to understand with Rose Omeyyade. She turns heads with a soft hand and holds attention without ever having to shout or steal... it is given freely. I also appreciate the dry down of RO. The beauty of fresh and jammy rose dancing together effortlessly is maintained throughout the wear without turning to incense or potpourri as the oud grows and the sugar deepens. It is a stunning composition and deserves all the love it receives. I am thrilled to have this blind buy win added to the shelf. LTKBeauty
