OUR TAKE
This sat in the same broad oud, rose, patchouli and amber family as fragrances such as Indonesian Oud and More Than Words, but initially struck me as higher quality and more rose-forward.
When I later compared it directly with More Than Words, I was less impressed. Rose d'Arabie was rosier but seemed to fade more quickly, while the drydowns became quite similar.
