Oriental Arabesque for Oud Palao by Diptyque
The newest fragrance by French niche brand Diptyque is called Oud Palao and is -you guessed it- inspired by the mega-trend that is oud. It also incorporates perfume notes of Bulgarian rose, camphor, labdanum, rum, tobacco, patchouli, Madagascar vanilla, and sandalwood.

i think i would like this one...and i agree, the illustration is very pretty. curious to try it, as i have liked other diptyque scents.
ReplyDeleteI hope they retain some of their character now they're out of the "strictly niche" they were.
DeleteI may just have to break my 'no more samples until I sample everything I already have" rule!
ReplyDeleteThat's a rule that's made to be broken, Carol! ;-)
DeleteI hope it's a lot better than Florabellio.
ReplyDeleteYup! :-)
DeleteOne of the few survivors to the oud wave capitulates. But as usual, one will have to smell. As per Phyllis, I too hope it's better than Florabellio.

ReplyDeleteWe'll see....
Way better than Florabelio. Very well crafted, and decidedly Middle Eastern feeling. Strong, warm, with hardly any synthetic-ness.
