A bold floral-spicy rose fragrance opening with a slightly fresh, peppery rose and soft peony brightness. It quickly turns deeper and more dramatic with smoky myrrh and resinous labdanum, giving it a dark floral-oriental edge. The rose feels rich, slightly fruity, and “wet velvet,” while the base becomes warm, smoky, and subtly balsamic with a mysterious niche character. Good longevity (around 7–9 hours, often longer on clothes) with moderate projection that is strongest in the opening before becoming more intimate and refined. Best for fall and winter, especially evenings, elegant wear, and niche rose lovers who prefer a darker, smoky interpretation rather than a sweet floral.
