a solid, maybe overpriced oud that surely delivers
there are reviews on fragrantica that complain of the fecal-ness that this fragrance has, but I imagine that can be only because 1) they never sprayed it onto their skin, 2) they couldn't wait literally 5 minutes for the fragrance to settle, 3) they're really unlucky with the skin chemistry, or 4) they've never experienced indian oud.

it's a pretty good, solid oud and has some warm notes of saffron in there to make it sociable. as a bit of an ouddict, however, it is a little pricey while not being super groundbreaking. perhaps that's the price tag of getting someone like Maurice Roucel to create this scent which is, undoubtedly, very well blended together.

the opening can be a bit challenging, but the other 95% of the journey is heavenly. Shalini said that this fragrance was about coming into her sexuality as a young woman, and indeed this smells a bit sweaty and dirty with a lot of musk coming through. it dries down to being surprisingly mellow and sweet, with fragrant jasmine echoing in the distance.

I would probably wear this to either somewhere like a sweaty nightclub where I might get lucky, or to a sunny beach donning an expensive bikini. this smells like beautiful, transcendent lust.

another jasmine oud to consider is Oudh Jasmin by Sama, which is more affordable but a bit more spiritual/asexual to me.

Just one statement wasn't enough, so here’s another comment.

Normally, I am not a big fan of oud fragrances; all the versions I have tried so far were unfortunately too animalistic (stable, to be precise) or like a band-aid, or acetone, etc. But here I have to make an exception. Jardin Nocturne is a super beautiful creation with especially gorgeous oud (just right, soft, smoky, woody) and jasmine. All the ingredients are of very high quality and very well blended. Jardin Nocturne is a bit straightforward, but not boring; rather minimalist. Longevity is very good (+12 hours), sillage is very close to the skin. For me, it is the best oud fragrance I have ever smelled. The only downside: very expensive.

Roucel meets nature
Sublime saffron root
Mysore sandalwood provides milk
Dark oud awakens
night-blooming ripe jasmine
With sweet indolic aroma

Christmas mist clings to the flowers
It was a wild night
All the blooms were
Buried under sandalwood
There...

In the dark garden
you treat my wounds
from the wild chase through the spring bushes
with antiseptic iodine tincture.

Walk through the night-dark garden, serious and majestic
Along the path, saffron lanterns, musk cushions, sandalwood railings
What remains when all the trivial fades away?

Beautiful blend of everything but a bit more oud and jasmine. JN is very soft and slightly smoky. Longevity is good and sillage is light.

Lush jasmine captures the heat of the day, intertwined with golden saffron, oud purrs in the background: LostInFlowers in a saffron frenzy.
