This composition is built as a pure rose expression, but with layered complexity rather than a simple soliflore.

At first spray, the scent reveals a fresh, green and slightly sharp rose oil facet, evoking crushed petals and natural rose essence. As it develops, the fragrance becomes richer and more textured, bringing out the flower’s signature honeyed, slightly spicy and fruity nuances—a hallmark of centifolia rose

In the heart, the rose feels lush yet balanced, never overly jammy or powdery. Instead, it maintains a light, airy elegance with depth, combining natural realism with refined structure.

The dry-down introduces warm, resinous and woody elements, where patchouli and frankincense (olibanum) add depth, contrast, and longevity. These darker notes ground the rose, transforming it into a floral-woody, slightly balsamic signature rather than a purely fresh bouquet.

Heart (dominant): Centifolia rose (Grasse absolute)
Facets: Honeyed, spicy, green, slightly fruity
Base: Patchouli, frankincense (olibanum), soft woody accords

Apply fragrance to clean skin after showering, targeting pulse points such as wrists and behind the neck for optimal scent diffusion. Use a non-scented moisturizer first to prolong fragrance life. Avoid direct application on clothes and sensitive skin to prevent irritation and preserve the integrity of the scent.
