    I recently purchased the personalised version of this (infused with iris) on a visit to Harrods’ Salon de Parfums. All I can say is wow! I don’t especially love Oud Vendome on it’s own (just a run of the mill, nicely refined oud fragrance) but with the welcome addition of the iris note, a tremendous amount of the otherwise rarely smelt notes come to the fore, with the oud melting into the background. I was initially disappointed that, on dry down, the iris seemed to disappear. Not the case I am glad to report. Opens with wonderful iris and saffron only to be taken over by a truly exquisite cedar note as it starts to dry down. Throw a very fine and subtly blended musk into the mix and you have a real winner in my opinion. The oud is subtle, refined and not at all barnyard which means that I am even able to wear this to the office. The musk, as previously mentioned, is a truly classy musk, very subtle and suitable for all occasions. As I mentioned, on the first couple of applications, I was initially disappointed that the iris seemed to be taken over during the dry down but it’s a real stayer. Keep getting the most delectable whiffs during the day even as much as 10hrs in. I normally struggle with a lot of non beast mode fragrances’ performance on my skin but this stuff is the real deal and I have been getting compliments. Also really love Fleur Narcotique from this house. This was my first experience with this house and I can say that while massively overpriced, compared to some of the near joke level performance of some fragrances I have (By Kilian especially) this stuff is the real deal. It’s overpriced like I say, but this is the first time I have spent that sort of money on a fragrance and had absolutely no complaints. Great longevity and projection with lovely, soft sillage that oozes class. A truly great fragrance (iris personalisation only, ambivalent about normal oud vendome tbh) and I will surely be back for more from this house. This is a staple for me and can mix it with the very best in my collection.
    In summary, if money is no object and you are looking for a new fragrance to use in very select situations, I can strongly recommend the iris infused Oud Vendome.

    Although pleasant and warm, on the whole it’s quite sweet and powdery, and to my nose the incense overpowers any other notes.
    This scent takes me back to the moments after exiting hip ethnic-goods shops and natural wellness stores where incense permeates all things and lingers on my clothes, once I’ve stepped out and the sharpness has subsided.
    It’s well-rounded, not unpleasant, but not a scent I would choose to immerse myself in for hours. It seems ouds are not my thing.

    Now this is sharp saffron with european style oud sweetened by the same saffron with a tiny bit of vanilla maybe or chocolate i presume.
    It’s not new, and it’s not unique, it is an essence I’ve smelled plenty of times, but i can’t deny it did captivated me somehow as i smell some animalic notes that is presented by the saffron.

    A beautiful FRENCH Oudh! Very well rounded, soft and sophisticated.
    Oudhs are abound like pebbles on the beach these days but most lack a certain level of sophistication, class and ease of wearing as they come down on the wearer and its surrounding audience like a ton of bricks.
    Not this one! This is truly pleasant, smooth, round, sweet, elegant, floral and friendly.
    I think it lies somewhere between the more floral and ‘fancy’ “Royal Santal” of Guerlain and Ferragamo’s beautifully floral and honey-kissed “Golden Acacia”.
    Not much development as it is rather linear but because it is so radiantly warm, pleasant and beautiful, you do want this level of linear to go on and on. A truly well balanced and superbly crafted EdP.
    Personally I find the Guerlain one more daring and interesting, but this one will most likely please a wider audience both male and female.
    8/10 for a European Oudh a la Parisienne!

    Oud Vendome is a true parisian masterpiece. Imagine oud reinvented with the parisian savoir faire.
    Oud is well known as the fragrance black diamond and Olivier Pescheux from givaudan has wrapped it with unexpected notes of ginger and incense.
    If you are looking for the oriental character of oud but with a true western refinement look no further…
    East meets west on the Place Vendome
