Rose tentation

The heady encounter between rose and patchouli

Some perfumes are a statement. This eau de parfum celebrates the dialogue between two mythical materials of perfumery: rose, queen of flowers and eternal symbol of elegance, and patchouli, the olfactory signature of the maison. From their encounter is born an opulent, woody composition, as carnal as it is refined, where floral sensuality merges with the earthy warmth of a noble material. A perfume for those who love rose without giving up character.

An exceptional accord of flowers, woods and vanilla

True to its know-how, the maison selects quality raw materials to build this fragrance in three stages. The perfume opens with a fruity facet of rose and lychee infusion, fresh and luminous. In the heart emerges a rare accord: Rosa Centifolia, with its generous petals, and Rosa Damascena, prized for its powerful aroma. The composition then settles into a base that is part of the house's identity — cedarwood, vanilla and patchouli essence — deep accords that enhance the rose and give it its full intensity.

A rose with character

Where other maisons turn rose into a lone star, here an alliance is chosen: patchouli anchors the floral and fruity roundness of the flower and gives it an earthy depth that makes it less delicate, bolder. This fragrance belongs to the Les Rencontres universe, born from the dialogue between the maison's signature patchouli and another exceptional raw material, true to the philosophy of material-perfumes where each ingredient is taken to its limits.

A unisex eau de parfum with an enveloping trail

Like all the maison's creations, this is a unisex composition: although rose is usually associated with femininity, its woody, green notes and patchouli make it equally suited to those seeking a perfume with character — it's all a matter of taste and personal sensitivity. It can be worn on any occasion and naturally accompanies every moment of the day. It offers excellent lasting power — on skin and also on clothing — and leaves a soft, present and enveloping trail, noticeable without ever being overpowering.

The art of layering

The fragrance naturally lends itself to layering to build a unique trail:

• Over Le Patchouli, to intensify the woody, earthy depth of the composition.
• Over Bois Étoilé, to add a spicy dimension thanks to the oud present in that perfume.

How to use

Spray the fragrance on pulse points — wrists, neck, below the earlobe and the inner elbows — where body heat releases and prolongs its scent throughout the day.
