Rose Oud by Kilian is a more feminine interpretation of Oud by Calice Becker, using the luxurious petals of the Turkish Rose. This unusual combination of Rose with Oud in a fragrance gives birth to a scent that is both mysterious, rich and opulent yet comfortably familiar. As always now, unexpected accords become Kilian’s signature.

Pure Oud and Rose Oud by Kilian are an invitation to discover the olfactive charms of the Middle East. The name of the collection is Arabian Nights.
Rose Oud (50ml EDP – 1.500 RON) – is available at Madison Perfumery.

A tangle of woody and citrus scents Lively and vivacious, Ninfeo mio by Annick Goutal opens with a breathtaking vapor of Italian lemon and citron. The bitter orange tree then unveils its leaves (essence of petitgrain), and its fruits (essence of bitter orange). Gradually, the scene begins to unfurl. Galbanum extract and lentisque absolute deliver a sassy verdure full of life.

A faintly aromatic undertone places the scene in a landscaped garden, in which conifers thrive alongside lavender, and then the warmth and milky softness of the fig leaf rises up, as if brought by a cool breeze to the nose. The tempo slows down, and gently comes to rest on the skin. The woody accord of the lemon tree, just as milky as the fig, then knits a reassuring blanket, capturing the freshness of the citrus fruit in a downy cocoon.

On that occasion, bottles will adorn themselves with a frosted blue-green color enriched with a touch of gray. This shade is evocative of the green of the leaves in the gardens of Ninfa reflected in the Ninfeo river.

Ninfeo mio by Annick Goutal (50 ml or 100 ml Eau de Toilette, Ribbed Bottle or 100 ml Eau de Toilette, Square Bottle) – will be available at the end of Febuary 2010 at Madison Perfumery.

Pure Oud by Kilian was not composed as a literal translation of the Oud oil in its purest form. Instead, it was composed as a contemporary interpretation of Oud, for those who appreciate and value the richness of the fragrance note itself. In order to create this interpretation, Calice Becker has layered the Oud’s oil with other essential oils such as Papyrus oil, Gaiac wood oil, Copahu balm and Saffron oil.

In doing so, Pure Oud by Kilian takes on a gold coloration which seems only fitting given the symbolism of gold throughout the scents theme. The scent remains warm and woody yet evokes a sense of modernity and elegance.

I love this parfum. It’s my favorite. And my birthday will be on March 10.

Pure Oud (50ml EDP – 1.500 RON) – will be available at the end of Febuary 2010 at Madison Perfumery.
