Damascus Rose – Oud is a rich oriental woody fragrance built around saffron, Damask rose and oud, and Maids Scents carries the authentic Eau de Parfum with delivery across Nigeria and beyond.
What is Damascus Rose – Oud?
Damascus Rose – Oud comes from Prestige, also styled as Prestige – Beauty Has a Secret, a perfume house with a strong presence in Oman. Launched in 2018, the fragrance was created by perfumer Bhupinder Singh Badh Sunny.
The wider Prestige catalogue includes other releases like Royal Oud and Havana Vanilla, giving a sense of the house’s general direction toward rich, resin-heavy oriental compositions.
Genuinely worth knowing — this is a comparatively hard-to-find fragrance outside of Oman itself. Several reviewers specifically describe buying it while travelling through Muscat, with more than one mentioning that it’s difficult to source elsewhere, which makes carrying it a genuine point of difference for Maids Scents.
It’s also worth being transparent that Damascus Rose – Oud doesn’t have as detailed or widely documented a note breakdown as many other fragrances in this catalogue, since it’s a smaller, more regional release rather than a globally distributed one. The description below is built from the fragrance’s own official-style narrative rather than a fully itemised pyramid.
Fragrance Profile
Damascus Rose – Oud opens with saffron and floral sweetness, immediately warm and inviting, described in the brand’s own copy as a scent that awakens the senses from the very first spray.
As it develops, the heart brings in Damask rose and oud, floral yet distinctly woody, evoking the rich culture of the Middle East, with the brand describing the effect as transporting the wearer back to a medieval world of gold coins and spices.
The base settles into wood, labdanum and ambergris, closing out with the musky, oud-forward trail more than one reviewer describes as spectacularly good, with several buying multiple bottles specifically so they wouldn’t run out.
Top Note: Saffron
Heart Notes: Damask Rose, Agarwood (Oud)
Base Notes: Sandalwood, Labdanum, Ambergris, Musk
Who Should Wear Damascus Rose – Oud?
Damascus Rose – Oud suits those who love rich, saffron-rose-oud compositions with genuine Middle Eastern character rather than a light, everyday scent. It’s also a distinctive choice for anyone who enjoys owning fragrances that most people around them won’t already recognise.
Given how rarely it turns up outside its home market, it also makes a genuinely memorable gift for someone who already has an extensive fragrance collection and appreciates coming across something new.
Performance and Longevity
Specific performance figures are harder to pin down for this fragrance given how regionally focused it’s remained, though the genuine enthusiasm from reviewers, several of whom bought multiple bottles rather than risk running out, is a reasonable indicator of real satisfaction with how it wears.
Two to three sprays on pulse points is a sensible starting point given the concentration typical of this category of oriental woody fragrance.
Best Time to Wear Damascus Rose – Oud in Nigeria
Given its warm, resinous, oud-forward character, Damascus Rose – Oud suits Nigeria’s harmattan season particularly well, where cooler, drier air lets the saffron, rose and oud fully develop.
