About This Perfume
Rose Oud Absolu by Goutal is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women and men. Rose Oud Absolu was created by Isabelle Doyen and Camille Goutal. Top notes are Cardamom and Coriander; middle notes are Turkish Rose and Agarwood (Oud); base note is Incense. Camille Goutal and Isabelle Doyen have imagined a new version, straight from the East: Rose Oud. In this mysterious perfume, the Turkish Rose is balanced with the strength of Agarwood. The 1001 facets of the perfume encompass spiciness and freshness, brought together by Coriander and Cardamom.
