A satin smooth portrait of Damask rose riding a warm oud accord, Montale Aoud Damascus layers a plush floral heart over silky woods and a quiet ribbon of incense. The rose feels vivid and dewy at first, then turns velvety as olibanum and balsams add warmth, while the oud stays polished and wearable for a refined, long-lasting rose oud signature that works year-round.

Story and Positioning
Among Montale’s early rose oud creations, Aoud Damascus presents a gentler, luminous take on the theme, ideal for anyone who wants the romance of Damask rose without a heavy animalic profile. If you enjoy the rose and oud style explored by icons like Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud Satin Mood or Tom Ford Noir de Noir, this sits in a similar polished space, while within the house it pairs well with siblings such as Black Aoud or Aoud Queen Roses for layering or wardrobe building.
Bottle and Design
Housed in Montale’s lightweight aluminum flacon finished in radiant gold, the bottle is tall and cylindrical with clean shoulders and a secure metal clip at the atomizer. A small square charm bearing the house emblem hangs at the collar, while crisp black lettering and a matching gold carton complete a sleek presentation that travels well and stands out on the shelf.
