Description
The story behind this fragrance
Damask rose and saffron open with a spiced floral warmth, the rose's velvet petals threaded through with saffron's sharp, honeyed dust. As the composition settles, labdanum and cypriol oil emerge—earthy, slightly smoky, anchoring the fragrance's heart while vanilla softens the edges with a creamy whisper. Sandalwood, patchouli, and cedar form a grounding base that deepens over time, the woody trio layering into a resinous embrace that holds the rose's memory at its core, until only warm cedar and soft patchouli shadows remain.
