Francis Kurkdjian

"Essence N°1: Rose is a rose-dominant Eau de Parfum created as a refined, unisex interpretation of the flower. Its composition centers on a layered rose structure rather than a simple fresh rosewater effect. Rose Damascena essence opens the fragrance, followed by the richer and more textured character of Rose Centifolia absolute. Atlas cedar gives the composition a dry woody framework, while vanilla softens the base with gentle sweetness. The overall character is floral, powdery, sweet, lightly spicy, and woody. It is regarded as an elegant and carefully constructed rose fragrance, although some wearers find the rose accord somewhat familiar after the opening."

Reviews Summary

“A rose-dominant fragrance with a layered, dense floral character and a soft woody-vanillic foundation. It is commonly experienced as fresh, elegant, floral-powdery, sweet, and slightly spicy. The craftsmanship and balance are widely appreciated, although some wearers consider the rose accord somewhat generic after the opening.”
