    I really love this - although I don't think I could wear it very often. It is a heady, lush, velvety rose wtith an amazing sexy deep undercurrent that is neither too spicy or dark or cuminy. I'm...

    Also called "Aoud Roses Petals" --- surprisingly not as medicinal as the other Montale aoud containing fragrances. There is that bitter bite at the start, but it's quickly taken over by a velvety...

    This is a fine, true rose fragrance to me from start to finish. It's a dark, rich red rose, NOT a tea or china rose. I don't get any wood/aoud from it at all. At the beginning, I did get a whiff of...

    I just can't handle this one. For me the camphor/bug spray/cleaning solvent smell is overpowering - from in the bottle thru to the longest I could keep it on, about 1.5 hours. Then I just had to...

    What a study in contrasts: Medicinal, sharp woods paired with dewy rose petals. I'll admit that the opening blast of Aoud scared me off at first: It almost reminded me of paint thinner or paint...

    When I first tried a few of the rose-aoud samples from Montale, I liked this but it was quickly overshadowed by Black Aoud, which I adore. I recently got a decant of it though, and it's very nice...

    Well, if I loved roses I would say this is a unique take on it. It starts rather medicinal, slightly patchouli-ish, and very strong on the tea rose....but hours later it dries down to a really...

    This is actually a very pleasant scent: oud plus power, plus a lovely freshness. Unfortunately, the freshness and powder also smell exactly like my favorite body powder: Shower to Shower Island...

    Aoud Roses Petals is a beautiful, dark rose touched by bitter saffron, cedar and a medicinal aoud note that quickly softens, giving way to the saffron-rose heart. This reminds me quite a bit of...

    I’m becoming quite a fan of these Montales. I’m incredibly picky about my rose fragrances it seems, usually caring for lighter, brighter compositions- Joy, Paris, even Aqaba to the bright,...

    As a lover of roses this is definitely a dark dark dark... did I say DARK rose? It's so dark in fact it's almost dangerous. I put on a dab on the back of my hand. I had experienced Black Oud a...

    Oud has a preternatural way of taking rose and ramping it up to glowing neon intensity. Gorgeous, pungent, spicy, dark rose. Bitter, leather-like presence. Creatively rosey, like the distinct...

    I guess I'm a sucker for aoud, b/c I love all the Montale versions of it that I've tried--and this is probably my favorite (on me, at least; I happily share Cuir d'Arabie with DH). Warm and...

    This is the rose-fragrance I liked less n Montale because of the nostril-piercing geranium and citronella note that makes it seem like lemony dishwashing liquid! The rest of the composition is...

    Is this the Aoud Rose Petals? I am confused ... Anyway that is what I am reviewing. According to their website this is described as <i>"All the freshness of the Rose and the Geranium, bewitched by...

    A friend who has an excellent nose told me his impression of Rose Petals was that it is a light tea rose into which has been blended some citronella, teak and oud (which it undoubtedly has since...

    Rose Petals does indeed have a soft rose petal base that is gorgeous and the perfume has the potential to be very pretty; unfortunately for me, the teak or oud or *something* in this fragrance...
