Oscar by Oscar de la Renta is a timeless oriental floral EDT that has endured since its 1977 launch as one of the great classics of women's perfumery. From the legendary Dominican-American haute couture designer, it's a fragrance that embodies the same refined elegance and femininity that defined his fashion — lush, sophisticated, and entirely timeless.
The opening is refined and immediately distinctive: basil, coriander, bergamot, and peach arrive with an aromatic, slightly herbal freshness that's elegant and composed, with the peach adding a soft, velvety warmth that sets a romantic, feminine tone from the first spray. The heart is where Oscar reveals its most celebrated character: jasmine, lavender, rose, ylang-ylang, and tuberose bloom together in a lush, opulent floral bouquet that's rich, heady, and deeply feminine — a masterclass in the grand floral tradition that feels as relevant today as it did nearly five decades ago. The dry-down is warm and lasting: sandalwood, vetiver, amber, musk, and opoponax build a rich, resinous oriental base with exceptional longevity and a sophisticated, lingering trail that evolves beautifully on the skin.
The Experience: Oscar is for the woman who appreciates classic femininity and the enduring power of a truly great fragrance — who gravitates toward lush florals with depth, warmth, and the quiet authority of a genuine icon. It's an evening-forward EDT that shines on special occasions and formal settings, and at this price point it represents exceptional value for a fragrance with nearly 50 years of heritage. A haute couture classic that has never needed to reinvent itself.
