Larmes du Desert by Atelier des Ors is a warm rose and oud, sweetened with amber and vanilla. Bergamot and pink pepper give a brief, bright start. Then saffron glows through the heart, and rose and oud settle in together, one soft, one dark. The base melts into amber, vanilla and musk, turning the whole scent golden and smooth, like sand still warm after sunset. Nathalie Lorson composed it, and the house released it in 2020. It is made for autumn and winter evenings, special dinners and any occasion that calls for something rich. If you find some oud perfumes harsh, this one is rounder and easier to love. A 10ml decant covers a season of nights out.

The community verdict
Oud and rose define Larmes du Desert, reached through bergamot and pink pepper before amber, vanilla and musk soften the base. Most find it long-lasting with moderate projection, though some report moderate wear or stronger reach. Its warm, spiced character fits autumn evenings, winter and daytime too.

The house
More from Atelier des Ors
Atelier des Ors began in France in 2015, when Jean-Philippe Clermont started a niche house built around the idea of gold and what it stands for. It works from Grasse and takes its look from Art Deco. The perfumes are generous and textured, moving between bright bergamot, grapefruit and neroli and a warm core of amber, rose, oud and saffron, finished with vanilla, sandalwood and musk. Start where the house did: Lune Feline, Rouge Saray and Crepuscule des Ames all arrived in 2015. Iris Fauve followed in 2018, and the Riviera set, from Pomelo Riviera onwards, shows the lighter, sunnier side. Marie Salamagne, Quentin Bisch and Nathalie Lorson are among the perfumers behind the range. Nearly everything here is unisex, so wear whichever pulls you in.
