This is a woody rose fragrance. It starts vibrant, spiced and fresh due to the cardamom and a very noticeable green tea. The base is more woody, warm and sweet, yet always clean, almost soapy. It has a vintage vibe but is easy to wear. For me, it’s like a rose/oud combo, but simpler and fresher. You’ll only enjoy it if you like powdery musk bases. It lasts around 6–8 hours on skin with moderate projection and sillage. I see it as unisex, though I think women prefer it more, as on my skin the floral, soapy and powdery notes stand out over the woods or warm accords. I’d consider it for semi-formal occasions rather than daily wear. Nor do I think it suits a very young audience due to those vintage tones; I recommend testing before buying. I liked it, but it’s not among my favourite scents from the brand.
A rose perfume with a woody base. Upon spraying, it vibrates with spices and freshness thanks to cardamom and a very present green tea. It then becomes warmer and sweeter but retains a clean, almost soapy touch throughout. It has a vintage air yet remains easy to wear. It reminds me of the classic rose/oud combo but simpler and fresher. To like it, you need to tolerate the musky and powdery base. It lasts about 6-8 hours with moderate projection. I see it as unisex, though on my skin the floral and soapy notes stand out over the woods, so perhaps it suits women better. Ideal for semi-formal occasions rather than daily wear. Due to those vintage tones, it’s not for a very young audience. I liked it, but it’s not one of my favourites from the brand.
Another beautiful fragrance that evaporates quickly. On my skin: the first minutes are soft and full of nuances. Afterwards, it leaves a nice rose but nothing extraordinary, very close to the skin. There have been so many times it’s the same thing! In summary: only for skin types that make it perform or for dog-like olfactory profiles.
Oha is a pretty perfume that I liked. It is a mature, seductive, and elegant night scent, though I wouldn’t choose it for going out at night due to performance. It projects as a dark, impetuous rose with leather, spices, and woods. The green tea and cardamom are subtly noticeable, refreshing and balancing everything. The finish keeps the rose very woody with a jasmine soapy and vintage touch reminiscent of classics. The trail is moderate for the first hour, then drops to skin-level, lasting 7-8 hours. I’ve used it three times with the discovery set; perhaps spraying on clothes would improve performance, but I haven’t tried that. It reminds me a lot of Aromatics Elixir but softer and more wearable. Despite liking it, I wouldn’t buy it due to the performance, which fails in all perfumes from this house. I like rose and wood bases, but there are cheaper proposals that perform better. If it lasted longer like at the start, it would enter my list. Scent 7.5/10 Longevity 7.5/10 Sillage 3/5 Quality/Price 2/10 Versatility 5/10 Packaging 7/10. Would I buy again? I didn’t buy it.

At first, it smells of spicy rose, then something earthy comes through, perhaps the cardamom which seems intense. But after 10-15 minutes of drying, it dries down incredibly well!
