What do reviewers say about Oud & Rose and Matière Noire?
The rose doesn't play second fiddle to the oud. That's the whole point. Mathilde Laurent built this for someone who wants the opulence of oud but needs it to breathe.Oud & Rose
The name promises darkness. The florals deliver warmth. That's not a contradiction, it's the whole point, this is a fragrance that argues with itself in the best way, sweet enough to reach for,.Matière Noire
