Inspired by Les Sables Roses (Louis Vuitton)

Rose over saffron and pepper, with oud and ambergris giving it a dry, desert-like warmth. Elegant, spare and firmly in the Gulf idiom.

Fragrance notes

• Accords: Rose, Amber, Oud, Animalic, Floral
• Top notes: Rose
• Middle notes: Saffron, Pepper
• Base notes: Agarwood (Oud), Ambergris

Works well in:

• Body and perfume oils — deep and long-wearing even at low dilution
• Soy and paraffin candles — good hot throw with a warm, resinous room note
• Bukhoor and incense blends — the agarwood holds its shape over heat
• Reed diffusers — one of the stronger performers on reeds
• Cold process and melt-and-pour soap — test first: the oud and leather materials can discolour a pale base

Supplied undiluted and alcohol-free, in two raw-material grades. The scent profile is the same in each; the grade sets the materials, and with them the projection and wear:

• Quality A: the richest materials, with the strongest projection and the longest wear.
• Quality C: the most economical materials, with the lightest projection and the shortest wear.
