Started with some hesitation over that oud, which can sometimes be tricky, but Oud Palao has won me over. It’s that dirty, smoky oud you feel, yet with just the right density: neither heavy nor too ethereal. After that dark opening, the tobacco takes over as the star: dry and unsweetened. Although Fragrantica lists it as ‘sweet’, I don’t sense that; the vanilla is very muted. As it dries down, it becomes more resinous, with balsamics and sandalwood in the background, while the rose blends in so much you can hardly distinguish it. Sometimes I feel it lacks a bit more sparkle to break the seriousness, but that’s just my take. The longevity is beastly, over 15 hours, with a powerful trail but not a bomb. Highly recommended if you like oud and tobacco.
The truth is I noticed it well for more than 12 hours. The scent despite being compared a lot to Ispahan gives me more air to Goutal and even to Ferrari because of that sweet note I don’t associate with common things like tonka vanilla amber benjoin etc… I suppose it must be the type of rose. Well the dryness of the tobacco and the character of the oud can make it resemble Dior but this one is dirtier and harder for me. By the end the sweetness attenuates quite a bit. Given how the market is I think it has a ‘good’ price for what it offers.
To be honest, I noticed it well for over 12 hours. It doesn’t project as much as Ispahan for me; it even reminds me more of Goutal or Ferrari due to that sweet note I can’t quite identify, perhaps tonka or vanilla, probably because of the rose. The dryness of the tobacco and the character of the oud give it a dirty, difficult edge, similar to Dior but rougher. In the end, the sweetness fades quite a bit. Given the state of the market, I think it’s good value for what it offers.
I had tried it before but since I had heard so much about it I felt it was very strong… however it didn’t disgust me. I just decided to buy it today. What do I think? The opening is strong and masculine… but after 20 minutes it is soft and true to its style. More than the oud I feel the smoked rose tobacco… it is a good combination that together form a very rich scent for me as a woman. I like it… and a lot! Definitely we must like different and strong aromas but with personality. To choose an Oud Palao… my 20-year-old daughter said it was similar to copal or myrrh incense hahaha… with a cigar. But I can say I like it just as much! Longevity 10/10 Projection 10/10 Recommended… yes!
I’d heard of it before and thought it sounded strong, but now that I’ve bought it, I’ve loved it. The opening is masculine and powerful, but after 20 minutes it softens without losing its style. To me, it smells more of smoked rose and tobacco than oud, and that blend is rich. I like it a lot; I think strong, characterful scents are what you should be looking for. My 20-year-old daughter said it smelled like copal or myrrh incense with a hint of cigar, and I’ve enjoyed it too. Longevity and projection are 10/10. Totally recommended!
A fragrance with a living oud that changes every instant. A delight… a smell like no other you can feel the magic.
A very good scent. Its opening is quite floral, the classic rose and oud combo. It reminds me a lot of Venigia by Merchant of Venice, but with a less realistic rose, and Akaster by Parfums de Marly. As it dries down, it differs from these fragrances because it leaves the floral side and lets the oud, sandalwood, and a touch of tobacco take the orchestra, making it darker, sweeter, and more interesting. In short, the opening is a bit more feminine, but after the first hour it becomes a much more masculine scent until the end. Recommended without a doubt, a very good perfume, although for those willing to splash out, as the performance is poor for its high price. Scent 8/10, Sillage 3.5/10, Longevity 3.5/10, Projection 4/10.
Very good scent. The opening is undoubtedly floral the usual rose and oud combo. It reminds me a lot of Venigia by Merchant of Venice but with a less realistic rose and of Akaster by Parfums de Marly. In the dry-down it differs because it leaves the part so floral and the oud sandalwood and a touch of tobacco come into the orchestra making it interesting darker and sweeter. In summary I find the opening a bit more feminine but after the first hour it is a much more masculine scent until the end. Definitely recommended a very good perfume for those willing to spend money. Poor performance for its high price. Scent 8/10 Sillage 3.5/10 Longevity 3.5/10 Projection 4/10.
Perfumes are very personal. The curiosity to keep testing is wrapped around them even with different proposals; there are always interesting aspects to discover. Many have been in a pigsty and noticed it smells beastly but the stable can be more pleasant. It smells more civilised in the sheep or goat stable from when we played in the village. For me the horse stable has an elegant and noble note. If I had to describe the oud of Oud Palao I would say it has the grandeur of a very well-cared-for horse stable. Those who can’t stand oud will perceive it and find their happiness in other proposals. The dry-down is intense almost faecal with rough leather just like La Dame. If you haven’t tried similar fragrances your test won’t last more than 5 minutes and you’ll wipe your wrists. You need to dedicate time to appreciate it. If you are brave and can hold on you will discover that Oud Palao is a notable implementation of the rose-oud theme worthy of a second sniff. The oud is mitigated by vanilla and rum rounding it off and making it more refined. It is enveloping in the first two hours for someone sensual and elegant. Linear but not simple. For me it is an appreciable and complete oud not too pink medicinal and difficult at the start to become creamy woody balsamic and slightly sweet at the end. The downside is the overall performance which doesn’t seem adequate to the price of this house.
At first, it evoked a hippie craft shop, with a distinct smell of incense sticks. Then I could pick out those slightly bitter notes, though they aren’t strident. It has just the right amount of vanilla: very little. Just the tiniest touch of sweet, like the glowing bait for a cod, to make the smoke and difficult woods less aggressive.
At first it reminded me of a hippie craft shop with an unmistakable smell of incense sticks. Then I noticed those somewhat bitter notes although they weren’t strident. It has the right amount of vanilla: very little. Just the right point of sweetness like the luminous bait of a cod so that the smoke and difficult woods aren’t so aggressive.
Working with oud is difficult; I would say it’s only for experts. I always keep one on my shelf. My wife hated it for the first five minutes: ‘I I don’t like this smell’. But the perfume changes with its sweet notes; the designer has achieved a beautiful and harmonious conversation between the oud and the sweet and the rum has acted as a perfect bridge.
The rose and oud combination is already heavily overused but I congratulate myself for trying another version of this popular pair. Oud Palao doesn’t invent anything new; it is very similar to Dior’s Oud Ispahan (which I don’t like much) but its development has a distinguishing point that works as a springboard to buy it even if you already own Ispahan. Wilted roses at the start somewhat unkempt with a bright aldehydic touch but let’s not get ahead of ourselves: it is pure darkness elegant yet unfriendly. The roses darken and become indolic and narcotic addictive for some and terrifying for others especially when the Laotian oud enters with its mantle of ‘refined dirt’ and balsamic viscosity. The roses here recall Diptyque’s Chypre added to a softly liquorish rum and a dry smoky labdanum. The patchouli adds a woody damp green air along with a soft sandalwood that helps lower the animal aura. Brutal performance: use sparing sprays and only at night or in the cold. A different focus refined and of great stature only for those who know how to wear it well.
Oud Palao is an olfactory symphony that transports you to distant lands. Imagine a vibrant market with an Eastern air. The Laotian oud deep and earthy blends with golden spices like a warm embrace under the stars. It is pure luxury: resinous wood and soft rose dance together like a Persian carpet. Notes of nuts and sweetness float by like memories of past parties while the labdanum and patchouli settle on the skin leaving sophistication and mystery. It is an olfactory poem telling ancient stories a tribute to the art of perfumery. It invites you to dream and travel without moving discovering the soul of an old world.
Although it’s well known that Diptyque has discontinued it I was lucky to find some remaining stock online and in-store. I’m not an oud fan and don’t own other fragrances with such notes but the first time I smelled it dry I was instantly hooked. The opening is powerful with that typical stable and artisanal leather scent associated with oud. It lasts a while before the rose blooms and the perfume gains an imposing elegance; it remains dark but becomes much more refined. Then the camphor and labdanum soften the initial oud and fix everything in place. The performance is brutal lasting up to 16 hours on skin without any issues. It has the potency that is often missing from much of this house’s collection. A very good oud if you’re looking for something like that in your wardrobe.
