Mysterious and delicate rose-oud combo: roses, saffron, oud, and musk with a subtle animalic touch that adds interest. Unisex, linear development, moderate sillage, and 6-7 hours of longevity. Compared to Magnificently Dubai, it’s less citrusy, and versus Alexandre J’s Rose Oud, it’s much less sweet; I prefer both of those. It also reminds me of JHAG’s Another Oud, but this is less sweet and slightly less long-lasting, so I’d still choose this one. Curiously: after two days of testing and comparisons, it went from being my favorite at first to becoming less and less appealing. Rating: 6/10 overall, 6.5/10 longevity, 7/10 sillage, 4/10 value for money, 6.5/10 versatility, 7/10 packaging. Didn’t buy it.

In my experience, it’s a unisex oriental with a strong feminine character, good performance, and linear development. A spicy, feminine oriental rose dominates, accompanied by saffron, white musk, clove, pepper, and geranium. In the background, there are discreet woods; I don’t perceive absolute oud. It’s not woody, but rather a face-off between Moroccan and Damask roses and spices. Moderate sillage, high fixation. It’s not bad, but personally, I wouldn’t buy it. Cheers to the community.

I received it today and sprayed several for a family lunch. The opening is a very spicy, almost peppery rose that’s too acidic for my taste; it’s not my kind of rose. But after two hours, that note fades and the woods take over, which I absolutely love. I don’t detect it on my neck, but on my wrist and handkerchief: dry, sweet, warm woods with a well-blended iso-woody vibe. I’ve been wearing it since 11 AM and it’s still present at 8 PM. I love the final result, but the first two hours are like acidic juice that shakes my brain. It reminds me of Club de Nuit Intense, Eau du Soir, or blends of Essential Oud and Bulgarian rose. I’ll see if I can get used to this accord to enjoy what comes after in this Midnight Oud.

I don’t know why this fantastic fragrance from Romano Ricci brings me almost childish memories of a powder-rose perfume immersed in exquisite oriental woods. It has immense longevity and presence; you can’t miss it. Wearing it is like stepping into a warm Indian shop dyed in sunset pastels, surrounded by a rose garden. Flawless notes of oud and roses throughout its entire life. Love at first sight for me.
