Winter: The Season for Oriental Perfumery
If oriental perfumery has a favorite season, it is winter. The cold slows the diffusion of fragrance molecules, giving deep, warm compositions time to fully develop on the skin. Smoky oud, rich vanilla, sacred incense, and golden amber — everything oriental perfumery does best — flourishes beautifully in the cold season.
What to Look for in Winter
- Smoky or resinous oud: deep, warm, unforgettable
- Vanilla & gourmand notes: enveloping, comforting, sensual
- Incense & resins: sacred, meditative, long-lasting
- Warm amber: the ideal foundation for oriental winter scents
- Leather & smoky notes: confidence, character, presence
