Dominique Ropion

"Portrait of a Lady Limited Edition is an opulent oriental floral centered on a dark, expansive rose impression. Its character combines rich red-fruit facets with cinnamon and clove warmth, creating a dramatic opening. Patchouli, incense, and sandalwood give the heart depth, darkness, and a textured woody quality. Benzoin, amber, and musk form a warm, balsamic foundation that extends the composition. The limited edition preserves the celebrated fragrance formula associated with the original Portrait of a Lady while presenting it in a collectible Carlo Scarpa-inspired flacon. It is positioned as both a major niche fragrance and a design-oriented collector's object."
