The full profile.
Think smoky rose incense over woody leather: that is Juliette has a Gun Midnight Oud. It opens with rose and birch tar, moves into Bulgarian rose, Oud and cedar and settles on castoreum, cetalox® and gaiac wood. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum is best in fall and winter and is an evening scent. It suits nights out. Released in 2009.
Wearers report that it lasts through a full day, and projects strongly and fills a room. Wearers suggest letting a new bottle rest for a couple of weeks; it tends to smooth out.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something woody and grounded for nights out.
- Sample first if: you have not smelled it before; it is not an easy blind buy.
- Skip if: you dislike floral fragrances.
Around $33.
