How to read C++ PCL local-descriptors (in .pcd format) in Python using Open3D?

[Haalum]

Hello,
I have created some local and global descriptors using the C++ Point Cloud Library and saved them in pcd format. Here is the cpp script I used for this.
So now I want to load the pcd files in Python but I'm getting the following error.

[Open3D WARNING] [CheckHeader] Fields for point data are not complete.
[Open3D WARNING] Read PCD failed: unable to parse header. 

PointCloud with 0 points.

So the descriptors are not like regular Point Cloud in XYZ or XYZRGB format, descriptors may have more dimensions and don't have standard headers. I'm not quite sure why. Using this o3d.io.read_point_cloud(path) I'm getting the above error.

Does anyone know how to load the descriptors (attached as zip below) file in Python? Will appreciate the help. I'm stuck here for quite some time. Thanks!

import open3d as o3d
local_descriptor = o3d.io.read_point_cloud("scene1_localdesc.pcd")
local_descriptor
