{"product_id":"onyx-al-jazeera","title":"Onyx – Amber Floral Eau de Parfum","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOnyx by Al Jazeera Perfumes\u003c\/strong\u003e is an amber floral woody eau de parfum, unisex, launched in 2016. It takes its name from an opaque black stone, and plays exactly on this contrast: a full rose, set on a dark and resinous background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Qatari house whose every bottle bears the mention \"Paris\"\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAl Jazeera Perfumes was born in Doha in 1998, and opened in \u003cstrong\u003e2002 the city's first boutique of rare perfumes\u003c\/strong\u003e. The word \u003cstrong\u003eParis\u003c\/strong\u003e inscribed on its bottles is not decorative: the house has worked from the beginning with \u003cstrong\u003ethe greatest French manufacturers of perfumery raw materials\u003c\/strong\u003e and entrusts its compositions to French perfumers. Onyx belongs to the part of the catalog where Al Jazeera uses its rarest materials, starting with its house oud oil, \u003cstrong\u003eOud Al Jazeera Special\u003c\/strong\u003e, reserved for a handful of references.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAn opening of Bulgarian rose\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eBulgarian rose\u003c\/strong\u003e opens alone, without citrus to lighten it. It is a distillation rose, dense, slightly honeyed, fleshier than the Taif rose. It immediately sets the register of the perfume: neither fresh nor transparent, but full and immediately recognizable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA heart of lily and walnut\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003elily\u003c\/strong\u003e extends the rose towards the white floral, a bit powdery, while the \u003cstrong\u003ewalnut\u003c\/strong\u003e — a rare material in perfumery — brings a fatty bitterness, almost woody, which prevents the bouquet from turning sweet. It is this walnut that gives Onyx its particular texture, this impression of a flower wrapped in a shell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA base of sandalwood, ambergris and oud\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe creamy \u003cstrong\u003esandalwood\u003c\/strong\u003e, the mineral and salty \u003cstrong\u003eambergris\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003eoud\u003c\/strong\u003e form a deep base that the \u003cstrong\u003evanilla\u003c\/strong\u003e comes to round off without really softening it. The trail remains long and dark, in the spirit of Gulf perfumery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe house's signature\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnyx rests on a figure of speech: the rose is never softened, it is \u003cem\u003edarkened\u003c\/em\u003e. Where European perfumery generally accompanies the rose with red fruits or lychee, Al Jazeera confronts it with walnut and oud. It is this choice that has made Onyx one of the most sought-after references of the house outside the Gulf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFor whom, for what occasions?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor those looking for a rose of character, neither conventionally feminine nor polite. Its longevity and sillage make it an evening, autumn and winter perfume, to be dosed with measure. Two sprays are enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith Onyx, Al Jazeera Perfumes signs one of the most readable rose-oud accords in its catalog, and one of the best entry points into the house.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AL JAZEERA PERFUMES","offers":[{"title":"100 ml","offer_id":58499493036296,"sku":"PROD-001266","price":140.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/0315\/8024\/files\/al-jazeera-perfumes-Onyx_1254x1254_b715c7c7-15a4-4037-83fe-41a846e6ff83.png?v=1787419954","url":"https:\/\/odorare.fr\/en\/products\/onyx-al-jazeera","provider":"Odorare Parfumerie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
