About This Perfume
Oud Rosewood by Dior is a Oriental Woody fragrance for women and men. Oud Rosewood was launched in 2020. The nose behind this fragrance is François Demachy. Top notes are Raspberry and Quince; middle notes are Sandalwood and Animal notes; base notes are Agarwood (Oud) and Palisander Rosewood. Maison Christian Dior Collection, the exclusive perfume line of the Dior House, presents its new edition in April 2020 under the name of Oud Rosewood. Oud Rosewood is a fragrance whose name alone powerfully calls to mind images and music, and stirs deep memories. Noble, powerful and moving, in a few short letters Oud Rosewood unleashes its rich scent fueled by captivating contrasts. Its opening notes include quince jam and raspberry; milky sandalwood wrapped in animalistic notes is at the heart, followed by woody accords of oud and rosewood. "The most evocative shades of brown. Oud Rosewood conveys the olfactory image of both a warm brown streaked with light brown, like a round, soft and lustrous rosewood, and the more rugged, nomadic brown of oud wood." It is available in bottles of 40, 125, 250 and 450 ml.

The Brand

Dior

Dior has released over 1,000 fragrances since Miss Dior launched in 1947; Scendira currently stocks 85 of them. The house spans three clear territories: the Sauvage-led fresh masculine line (Dior's biggest commercial anchor), the J'adore-Miss Dior feminine florals, and the François Demachy iris-and-cedar Dior Homme collection that reshaped men's iris in the 2000s. Prices range from about $49 for travel formats to $525 for La Collection Privée exclusives. The five standout Dior fragrances currently on Scendira are Dior Homme Original (dry iris and vetiver, 2021 remix), Diorella Parfum (1972 mossy chypre), Dior Homme Intense 2011 and 2007 (powdery iris-vanilla-cedar), and Dior Homme Cologne 2013 (crisp bergamot-grapefruit blossom). Family-wise the stocked selection leans fresh and unisex on average, with iris and vetiver as recurring signatures on the masculine side.
