What it actually smells like

Clove brings a distinct spicy warmth at the opening before Damask rose takes over with a full, velvety floral character and subtle honeyed facets. Oud gradually darkens the fragrance underneath, adding resinous, woody depth while allowing the rose to remain at the centre.

Who this is for

Ideal if you enjoy rose with warmth and depth rather than a fresh, delicate floral style. It suits evening wear particularly well if you like the contrast of rich petals, spice and dark woods.

Not for you if

You prefer light, airy florals or find the combination of prominent rose, spice and oud too rich.
