Régime des Fleurs — Oud Dukhan
Régime des Fleurs — Oud Dukhan
Eau de Parfum
Burning Oud on a slab of grey marble inside a North African Riad.
Régime des Fleurs teams with Christopher Niquet to ask:
What does it mean for a perfume to explore masculinity in 2021, at a time when gender norms are being challenged more than ever? How can we use ‘masculine’ ingredients in a new way?
“Yes, extremely refined [...] this one is a slow, magnificent burn. Oud Dukhan is effing gorgeous.
This scent feels classically “masculine” though none of the notes suggest a fresh, fougere-y or otherwise classic style fragrance [...] about 45 minutes in, where Oud Dukhan lands in an exceptionally elegant drydown. Smokey and resinous, yet somehow still light – a perplexing balance of deep and fresh that has Ropion’s fingerprints all over it.” — zimblot, Fragrantica
