  Extrait review: it’s 4 euros per milliliter, we go crazy, but it’s a luxury, not a necessity. The official notes are violet, geranium, cinnamon, Damask rose, Tunisian rose, natural Laos oud, amber, and vanilla. I sense something different. It’s consistent; you apply it and, with its nuances, it stays at the same intensity for hours. Potent at first, perhaps fresh from the geranium, and it fades away slowly (the phase I didn’t perceive because I was already asleep). I don’t smell much cinnamon or violet; maybe the first accompanies the sweet tone and the second adds a powdery touch. The oud, rose, and vanilla stand out, with a bit of labdanum. Everything is very well blended. The oud doesn’t smell like a stable; it adds a murky woody touch. The vanilla joins the rose for a soft balsamic scent. The rose isn’t soapy either, also balsamic. The amber, which I think is labdanum, appears to keep it from getting boring. It’s very good, but it’s very expensive. I can’t compare it to the cheap EDP because I don’t know it. I tried a cheap Al Haramain oil that smelled very similar at first, but by the dry-down it settled into a generic white musk. This one stays the same for many hours.

  I like it. Sweet floral opening, a vanilla rose with an oud base. It’s an oud that’s less medicinal than in other fragrances. Benzoin and amber give strength to the vanilla, with a slight powdery touch. To me, it’s more feminine than masculine. Quality and performance are magnificent, but it’s linear and too sweet. None of Kurkdjian’s scents hook me completely. Ideal for autumn and winter, better for night than day. Longevity is extremely durable and the sillage is heavy.

  I’m in a transitional phase. After a crazy season with Arabic scents and heavy oud, I’m getting a bit tired of them because I keep thinking: ‘Don’t they have more ideas to mix rose, oud, and vanilla?’ I tried this with low expectations, just to experience something from Kurkdjian I’d never tried before. I was pleasantly surprised! Yes, it’s the typical vanilla-oud combo, but here the oud, vanilla, and rose blend together to make it special. It feels familiar yet different. Definitely worth a try. The performance is spectacular: I applied it at 10 AM and could still smell it at 9 PM. If the rest of the brand’s perfumes are similar, they deserve more attention.

  I ordered a MFK sample set and picked this one. It smells pleasant right out of the bottle, but once it hits my skin, everything changes. It’s proof that roses and I are incompatible. That delicious scent transforms into a ripening fruit that starts to spoil. It’s not rotten, but it has that note that makes you want to step back. Unfortunately, on my skin, it becomes exactly that.

  I love the opening, but after a few hours on my skin, it gets a bit sour, so I reapply to cover it up. What a pity. I’m going to try the Extrait to see if it works better. I recommend it for fall and winter; in summer, it’s too strong for me.

  Another rose-oud combo. Oud Satin Mood is basically a vanilla base where the rose has a jam-like texture, accompanied by violet and a very weak woody oud. Very sweet, leaning unisex-feminine with great longevity. I loved the texture of the rose, but the perfume was too cloying for me. I sold it after 3-4 uses. The Extrait version is superior: less sweet, the oud is more pronounced, and it’s better balanced. Before buying, smell both versions and take your time. It’s worth trying, but don’t buy it blindly.

  I love it; it smells like strawberry jam with hints of rose and flowers like violet. The opening is feminine, but as it dries down, it becomes seductive and more masculine thanks to the woods, oud, and amber. If you’re looking to make a move on a date, this is your perfume.

  The first time I discovered this house, I gravitated toward Baccarat Rouge 540, wary of oud back in 2018. But when I returned to Saks Fifth Avenue, out of curiosity, I tried Gentle Fluidity and these gems: Oud Satin Mood Extrait and EDP. I was absolutely blown away; on skin, it’s a velvety rose with a soft violet and talc-like dry down over a very light oud. It’s so delicious it makes me close my eyes and travel. There’s no comparison; it’s a balanced work of art. I prefer this a thousand times over BCR540. I never thought I’d fall so hard for an oud. The body oil is also a delight. 100% recommended if you like rose, violet, and oud. It’s my most feminine scent, with 10/10 longevity and projection. I love it!

  Vanilla rose with woody notes, very different from Oud Silk Mood. Here, the rose is less sharp, sweeter, and creamier. It has much more depth and sensuality, though they share elegance. The vanilla is delicious, and the oud is hardly animalic, barely perceptible. On my skin, it smells like dark violet, ideal for an evening date. It suits perfectly with the texture of satin, and its performance is extraordinary.

  Well, I think it’s time to admit it: it’s just a matter of time before I desire an OUD perfume in my collection. I started with Arab perfumes and learned to appreciate other interpretations of roses. I gradually understood how aromatic priorities are different from mine and started appreciating those small – big differences. I’ve smelled oud in several houses: Perris Monte Carlo, Nisane, Tom Ford… the latter along with this one by Kurkdjian seem impressive to me. Crisp, polished, super shiny ouds, intense without being overwhelming. They contribute, embellish, and add up, they don’t cover up. The most precious oriental rose with the most elegant oud = this perfume. One drop and the magic comes.

  This perfume is magic; I’ve never smelled anything so fine and yet so sensual. If Baccarat Extract is one of my favorites, with Oud Satin Mood I realized that Francis Kurkdjian is a genius and geniuses create MAGIC. Its name says it all: for me, it’s black satin sheets covered in almost burgundy red roses in a room with noble wood furniture. I’m not an oud lover, but here I barely perceive it, just a woody nuance. As for sillage and longevity, it’s beast mode.

  This is a perfume jewel; I wouldn’t know where to start; every component is executed perfectly, it’s a work of art. On me, I feel sugared roses, very subtle oud, and fused talc and vanilla; it’s warm, fine, delicate. Spices are felt in the background, jumping in and out. It’s a BEAUTY !!!!

  I confess I never paid attention to it because of the price and because I already had my L’extase Rose Absolue, and many people said they were identical. I found a cheap decant and decided to check it out. For the first half hour, they’re identical; I couldn’t tell which was which. The rose screams “Here I am!” and the vanilla follows, sweetening, both notes quite loud. I also perceive a dusty nuance, probably from the violet. As time passes, the rose and vanilla stop shouting; their sweetness calms down with a woody accord and a very subdued oud, enveloping, mysterious. It becomes definitively more unisex than the Nina Ricci one, sexier. From here on, they distance themselves in similarities. Both have a similar structure. If you’re not a demanding enthusiast, worry about quality, and prefer more feminine fragrances, don’t fork out the big bucks for Oud Satin Mood and get the Nina Ricci one instead; although it’s discontinued, there are partials at a fraction of the price. Longevity and projection are very good.

  What a work of art, one of the best rose and oud perfumes out there. I smell more violet than rose, and it has a pleasant sweet touch without being heavy. It’s very well balanced and rounded; it’s not a strong or animalic oud, it’s soft, sensual, and elegant with a mysterious touch. Projection and longevity are spectacular.

  This fragrance is bottled velvet. The oud is barely noticeable; it’s not the typical rose-vanilla combo either. For me, it’s infinitely more refined. It gives a silky sensation, warm softness, very pleasant. Although it’s unisex, it’s slightly feminine due to a spicy, light, dusty rose, along with saffron (even though it’s not listed) that gives it that soft velvet and rose scent. An olfactory masterpiece that makes this perfume a work of art.

  This perfume is a headache. Needless to say, the ingredient quality is top-notch, but I get bored feeling rose and vanilla for 8 hours or more without much variation. Plus, it reminds me of super old houses, vestiges before the hygiene era, where incense poorly camouflaged the smell of urine, something like sweet, woody pee… or oud pee, haha. I’m ignorant in perfumery; I don’t doubt the quality, but it’s unbearable for me. The only time I tolerated it better was in spacious areas. Edit: After a month, I must say it has conquered me. It must be the winter and having controlled the sprays. I no longer feel dizzy; on the contrary, I can’t stop smelling it. Today I started with Ylan in Gold by Micallef and applied OSM on top in the afternoon; the result was sublime… ☺️

  I understand this composition. It’s a fragrance with superior quality to the common stuff, justifies its price, but it’s not for everyone. In my case, this decant will last me a long time. It’s challenging; a single spray fills a large room. Rich for me, but your surroundings might not appreciate it. But I’ll always say: there are many noses that won’t understand the niche fragrance thing.

  The best perfume I’ve ever smelled. It represents me; I can’t stop smelling it: elegant, chocolatey, for cold days, addictive, I’m obsessed, it hypnotizes me. I want the full bottle to use it ALL the time. The problem is that I stop smelling it after 2 hours, and I really want to; it seems to have perfect chemistry with my skin, but I suffer because I want to keep enjoying it. It faded very quickly on my sweater. No one complimented me; I think no one noticed it. It’s worth checking the extrait, because my skin eats perfumes, and I want to see if people notice the more potent version. But this is 120% in aroma, surpassing any other, winter, summer, whatever. DO NOT BUY IT, IT’S MINE!! Just mine.

  What an interesting perfume. This time I’ll be practical, listing pros and cons so I don’t regret investing in this ‘difficult jewel.’ Like with ‘Portrait of a Lady,’ I have no regrets, but I would have been happy with a decant. CONS: The pH lottery is key. In some people, it develops into oud/rose/vanilla; in others, it becomes violet accords and wet baby wipes. I experienced this, and it’s true. It leans feminine, powdery floral, and slightly mature, nothing like modern ouds like Initio’s ‘Oud for Greatness’ (in my opinion, the best current one). This oud feels low on wood compared to the flowers. It’s too floral for work or daytime events; even if you don’t notice it, people around you will. Be careful with application. The dry-down is clean, but it’s better for night and cloudy, cold days. The top and heart are very floral and balsamic and can last for hours, which is where that ‘baby wipe’ hint comes in. If you lived through the 80s/90s and 2000s, the violet will remind you of fragrances from back then that don’t sound modern today; you won’t feel ‘rejuveniced.’ PROS: For today’s perfumery, it’s totally unconventional. Although it seems feminine, when worn by men it grows into wood and vanilla, and its mutation is surprising. As a woman, I find it delicious on men, and they say the opposite—an enigma. If you use dry vanilla, fresh roses, or sandalwood during the day and switch to OSM at night, the result is notable. Mysterious, enigmatic, wearing OSM is a statement of principles, going against the grain. It smells like old money and is elegant. You have to know how to dress it; it’s as dark as a luxurious baby powder from Count Dracula’s Coppola version. It’s not a child of its commercial time; take off your hat to Kurkdjian. It’s very interesting that thousands find it seductive and sexy. This scent isn’t obvious, it’s not accommodating, and it’s not easy. What joy to have this rarity! The dry-down is fabulous; it’s worth the hours of maturing flowers to get there, and I’d stay in that base note. It’s one of those aromas that’s a pleasure to have close to remind you that perfumery is a deep and complex art, without age or gender, when you enter a dimension beyond the industry.

  What an interesting perfume… this time I moved from poetic to practical: pros and cons. If I hadn’t read reviews beforehand, I wouldn’t have jumped to buy this “difficult jewel,” just like with “Portrait of a Lady”; though I don’t regret it, I would have gotten a decant instead. CONS: The pH lottery is key here; in some, the oud/rose/vanilla explodes, while in others, violet and baby powder notes dominate. I experienced it myself, and indeed, it leans toward a dusty, mature floral, nothing like modern ouds like Initio’s Oud of Greatness (in my opinion, the best easy-to-find one currently). This oud feels woody beneath its flowers. It’s too floral for work or daytime events; even if you don’t notice it, others will. Be careful with application. Dry down has a cleaning halo, but it’s better for night or cloudy, cold days. Its opening and heart are very floral and balsamic, lasting hours, where that “baby wipe” nuance enters. If you lived through the 80s/90s and 2000s, the violet will remind you of fragrances from then that no longer sound modern; you won’t feel “rejuveniced.” PROS: For current perfumery, it’s totally unconventional.

If you wear dry vanilla, fresh roses, or sandalwood during the day and switch to OSM at night, the result is notable. Mysterious, enigmatic, wearing OSM is a statement of principles, going against the grain. It smells like old money and is elegant. It needs to be dressed up; it’s dark, like a luxurious baby powder from Count Dracula’s Coppola version. It’s not of its time commercially, take my hat off to Kurkdjian. It’s curious that so many call it seductive and sexy, because it’s not obvious, not accommodating, and not easy. What joy to have this rarity! The dry down is fabulous; it’s worth the hours of mature flowers to get there, I’d stay in that base forever. It’s an aroma that’s a pleasure to have nearby to remember that perfumery is a deep and complex art, without age or gender, a dimension beyond the industry.

  Uf, I love it!!! I even bought the cream. Where do I start? I can only say it floods the subway car with this amazing scent. My scarf has been smelling of this for months; it’s crazy. I bought the 35ml on the official MFK website; the moisturizing cream is amazing, and if you put the perfume on top, it’s BEASTMODE! I have to say it’s recommended for cold days, because in summer this gives you a headache because it smells so strong. I’m not a rose perfume person, but this is such an exquisite and luxurious rose that it has won me over. How good it smells!!

  A work of art made with one of the best ouds in perfumery. That deep, wet, smoky wood, through roses, creates an aura that is always special and unique. Like burning palo rosa and putting Turkish rose essence in the flame. In this case, it has a sweet and avianillated touch, but from a vanilla that is curiously fresh, as if natural yogurt cream had been mixed with a vanilla pod. This complex refinement of the oud, serious, deep, and distant, is represented here in a tender and accessible way, sweetly fresh and floral. A percussion work between roses, oud, and creamy vanilla that make up a round and perfect perfume.

  It’s very good, I love the scent, but I see it as too feminine. I bought it blind and regret it a little. I love it in itself, but more for my wife. I detect the oud note very subtly and the violet note very marked. By the way, it’s a spectacular fragrance, but in my opinion, it leans much more towards feminine.

  I was looking for this perfume because Bomi from Apink showed it in a video. Other celebrities said that when the group arrived, the place smelled feminine; in reality, it was Bomi. In that video, she mentioned using it daily and that the bottle was already worn out. I hoped to try it before buying, but I had to buy it blind. It smells very floral but powdery, it’s potent and lasts on clothes for days. Good thing I liked it; it’s the first time I’ve invested blindly in high-end perfumery.

• Lucky3093

  @NaeLisa97 Does Bomi wear this perfume? It surprises me and yet it doesn’t, haha. It makes me wonder what perfumes the other girls use, Eunji, Chorong, Hayoung. It raises the question that for many, with no money issues, they lean towards niche or high-end. I don’t blame them; I think many would do the same. I would without a doubt. Anyway, the ‘feminine’ reference holds up a lot, since it’s a perfume I’ve been eyeing for a while and hope to try, even if just as a decant. Leaving this comment for your future review.

  The opening is strident, shrill. It gets in your head and drills into your brain. To me, it screams violet from all over. It’s floral with a slight amber dry-down. I don’t detect the oud anywhere. Honestly, I don’t perceive much evolution; it’s quite static. Nothing bad about it, though. What stands out here is the performance: an unbeatable beast. More than 12 hours on skin with a projection that doesn’t scare. Your clothes soak it up and will smell of its essence for days. As you walk, people smell you from all directions. It’s for those who don’t want to go unnoticed. Not very versatile, though. Summary: Age 30+, unisex, cold/fresh weather (in heat, it’ll knock you out). Scent: 7.5/10. Longevity: 10/10. Duration: 12h. Projection: 9.5/10. Versatility: 6/10. Price: $$$$ (3.35€/ml). Final score: 8.75/10.

  It’s different from everything I thought I’d like. I tried it thanks to a sample order from MFK. I love it. I adore it, but mainly I wish every man in the universe smelled like this.

  Reminds me a lot of Black Aoud in the opening… a medicinal oud with roses… it’s good.

  What a gorgeous rose! At first, right when I sprayed it, it wasn’t my favorite—I thought it was too strong—but once it dried down, ufff, what a beauty. It leaves a velvety, elegant, and refined rose. Not for daily wear; it has its own special place. The scent lingers on the skin forever, more than a day. The trail is noticeable, like a vampire walking with a rose in her hair. Reminds me of Carmina for the rose and Nuit Trésor Intense for that mysterious, sensual touch. I barely notice the oud. Although it’s more feminine than unisex, it’s an experience you have to try. Francis Kurkdjian gives us something that will be imitated endlessly but never surpassed (let’s say BR540).

  It’s not unisex; it’s 100% feminine. A velvety rose with a sublime wood base. That’s it. From start to finish. Massive trail and beastly longevity. If you like rose, this is a complete perfume.

  It smells like an old wig shop; I’d give it to my grandmother because it would suit her perfectly and appropriately, but I, at 20 years old, have no way of using this. In a nursing home, this would be a sensation, a rich aroma, but the oud + roses combination gives a mature feeling.

• Casablanca77

  I feel Oud Satin Mood EDP is the most mind-blowing rose and violet perfume I’ve ever smelled. This is like being in Arabia; it’s Eastern all the way. It has a personality that takes over you like the most dangerous psychopath humanity has ever birthed. You either handle it well or you get possessed for hours. I think you need to know how to carry it, or the Eastern luxury will hallucinate you. I appreciate it quite a bit, but it knocks me out, and I don’t know how to wear it… I guess I don’t have the charisma for such an impressive Arab sensation. It’s a work of art. And with 2 sprays, you’re in its kingdom for hours. Nowadays, there aren’t many perfumes this bold.

  The feeling this fragrance gives me is curious. It’s a love-hate, or rather, hate-love. It comes right over me, but for those of us who dye our hair… it smells like when you dye it and don’t rinse it well. It has a clear rose orientation, which makes me fall in love and rub my wrist over and over… but that ammonia-like afternote I perceive (maybe from the oud)… irritates me and makes me hate it. I can’t give a neutral opinion… you have to smell it to judge it. Good luck!

  An aroma loaded with geraniol and ionones to mimic rose and violet. I don’t see it as unisex or masculine. This treatment of the rose, so floral and accentuated, is very feminine and mature. I doubt a young girl would wear it. It’s elegant and dense, nothing for mild or hot days. It’s for the night. Rose Satin would have been a better name, because the oud isn’t noticeable at all, which disappointed me. Let whoever wants use it, but to me, with my years, it reminds me of an older lady from the seventies. I think Kurkdjian has stepped into territory he doesn’t dominate, like with Dior Homme Parfum 2025.

• FranFreddy

  As always with Francis Kurkdjian, French perfumery at its finest. Spectacular, but very intense, almost overwhelming. I still like More than Words more, although this one is technically better because it’s less invasive and has that fruity touch.

• Salvy1984

  Powerful; at first, it hits the nose hard, but once it settles, it becomes noble. The dry down has lots of rose and violet, intense, sweet, and powdery. The strawberry is faint, almost imperceptible, only if you close your eyes. As it dries, it leaves a talc-covered rose, sweet, like the makeup powder aristocrats used at Versailles. I don’t detect vanilla, benzoin, cedar, or caramel; probably all are blended to give that sweetness and depth. It feels very feminine, old-fashioned, like a rose I smelled 30 years ago in my grandmother’s vanity. It’s not groundbreaking, it’s pleasant, but only the first 10 minutes are special due to its potency. I don’t find oud, but rather a woody touch that accompanies the rose; the violet is very prominent at the start. Only a confident man could wear it, because it’s very feminine. It shines more at night in cool or cold weather, enveloping you and inviting people to get closer. It grabs attention, and since the protagonist is the rose, few men would have the courage. As for age, I don’t see 18-20-year-olds wearing it; it’s aimed at an older audience, 45 and up. In summary, it’s a lovely fragrance, but I’ve smelled similar ones for over 30 years, so it doesn’t feel new or disruptive to me.

  Arg, what a good thing. A divine rose with an oud that isn’t ‘in your face,’ but very elegant. When you think it’s a super serious fragrance, it slaps you with a hit of caramel to balance everything. It’s an absolute delight. I sprayed it discreetly in case it was too invasive, but I think I held back: humanity deserves to smell this.

  I approached this from Delina’s by Marly, which they say is for princesses, while Satin is for sexy, rock-and-roll girls. It sounds cliché, but Satin has more exuberance. It’s not for everyone or for hot weather, because it hits you hard and leaves you knocked out. The toasted wood and oud can be off-putting. It’s curious that it’s unisex; on men, the oud and violet stand out more, very exotic for someone with a bold personality who wants to stand out with refinement. Perfect for cold weather and seduction. On me, the roses and sweet spices dominate; I mix it with amber and sandalwood body lotion and it lasts forever, sticking to clothes. It’s not for shy people, don’t buy it blindly. A perfect complement to a black silk dress or shirt, very regal, for divas. Be careful not to overapply, because excesses are vulgar.

  What an incredible fragrance? It’s sweet and super intoxicating (in a good way) thanks to those roses and oud that make it a complex composition. The opening is intense, but then it becomes a beauty as you move; I’ve gotten compliments everywhere. I used it as a decant and every time I wear it, people ask about it. It lasts for years, it’s amazing, one of my favorites. 10/10.

  I never dared to try it, but the moment I sprayed it, I was breathless. It’s spectacular, dark, and silky, like being wrapped in black velvet. I feel embraced by the night. It reminds me a bit of Tom Ford Noir for the rose and violet notes, but here it feels rounder and more balanced. That blend creates an incredible mystery. Totally recommended.
