A ROSE FOR ...
Unisex
A sweet, powdery floral bouquet unfolds with notes of rose and iris, supported by the earthy depth of patchouli and sandalwood. The addition of oud and incense adds a rich, resinous warmth, while vanilla and blackcurrant bud contribute a fruity, creamy contrast. As it dries down, the fragrance settles into a smooth, woody dry down.
