What do reviewers say about Au The Noir and Rose Oud?
Starts as smoky black tea. Ends as dark leather, rose, and oud. Not many smoky fragrances pull this off, Au Thé Noir wears it close and refined. For those who like their depth with a pulse.Au The Noir
If you've been avoiding rose oud combos because you expected something medicinal or aggressive, this one rewrites the script. Patricia de Nicolaï keeps the oud polished and refined.Rose Oud
