Damask rose and oud open Velvet Rose Oud by Jo Malone London, warmed by clove and a sweet, almost nutty praline note. A touch of clary sage keeps the rose from turning too sugary. It settles into patchouli and vanilla, giving it a soft, milky warmth beneath the rose and oud. Released in 2012, it leans toward women, and suits anyone who likes a rose with real weight behind it. Voters save it for winter and autumn, worn at night, and it suits evenings out as much as a dressier day at work. The longevity vote leans moderate, and the sillage vote leans moderate too, so it sits close rather than filling a room. A 3ml decant is a good way to spend a few cold evenings with it before choosing more.

The community verdict
Velvet Rose Oud pairs Damask rose and clove with oud, then settles into patchouli and vanilla. Staying power divides opinion between moderate and long-lasting; the largest group finds projection moderate, while others find it strong. Its sweet, warm style suits winter nights and autumn, but the sweetness may not be for everyone.
