All about this fragrance
Vibe check
The peppery opening has the animation of a conversation gathering pace; the rose and softly smoky base suit the quieter exchange that follows. This is a fragrance for a sociable evening at close quarters, with enough brightness to feel spirited rather than solemn.
How to wear
Try it in mild to cool weather, when the pepper’s brightness can sit against the warmth of labdanum and woods. Begin with one or two sprays on skin beneath clothing for a more contained effect; in warmer conditions, apply lightly to keep the resinous base from dominating.
Who it’s for
For those who enjoy rose with spice and a softly smoky, suede-like undertone rather than overt sweetness. It suits a taste for textured woody florals and oud accords that balance brightness with enveloping warmth.
Release year
2019 (or 2018)

La Closerie’s story
La Closerie des Parfums builds its fragrances around precious perfume accords enlivened by spices from around the world. Rooted in Bordeaux and French perfumery, the house connects its taste for travel with the city’s spice-trading heritage; its name evokes intimate Parisian gardens and sensory discovery.
Oud Baie Rose’s concept
Oud Baie Rose brings the house’s spice-led approach to an oud accord, contrasting exuberant pink pepper with a rosy floral heart and a warm, enveloping base. Its central tension is between the opening’s brightness and the darker, supple texture that follows.
Extra info
“Baie rose” means pink pepper, although the composition also contains Damask rose. The house uses reconstructed oud to help preserve the natural resource. An earlier published review called the fragrance Oud Suede Baie Rose; the naming variation does not establish a reformulation.
