About This Perfume

The Merchant of Venice Myrrh Oud smells like rose and oud incense with warm saffron. It opens with saffron, bergamot and cardamom, moves into rose, orange blossom and myrrh and settles on Oud, tonka and labdanum.

It is best in fall and winter and is a daytime scent. A good pick for date nights. Released in 2024.

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 floral and romantic for date nights.
  • Sample first if: rose is new territory for you.
  • Skip if: you dislike warm spicy fragrances.

Around $240.

The Brand

The Merchant of Venice

The Merchant of Venice draws its identity from the historic Venetian spice trade, Middle-Eastern oud and resin cross-pollinated with Italian composition sensibility. The catalogue leans unisex (22 of 34) across fresh (9), gourmand (9), woody (6), leather (3), floral (2) and warm-amber (2). Top accords are sweet, spicy, woody, floral and oriental. Prices run $72 to $420, averaging about $164, collector-tier throughout. Standout live picks: Rococò 26 (warm spiced caramel cocoa, like sweet incense; $319), Nuit Feline (smoky, leathery oud afterspice on pine; $240), Secret Rose (sweet rum, tart citrus, rose oil on wood; $138.59), Arabesque (spiced plum tobacco, creamy tonka and benzoin; $218.39), and Vinegia 21 (toasted cinnamon praliné, creamy vanilla, smoky oud; $183.39). Spice-trade oriental at its most literal.
