Mystère de Rochas (Parfum)

"Mystère de Rochas is a dark, intensely green chypre fragrance with a strongly aromatic and animalic character. Its opening combines galbanum, coriander, hyacinth, aldehydes, and bergamot for a sharp, vivid introduction. The heart develops into a complex floral composition accented by carnation, narcissus, orris root, violet, jasmine, tuberose, and aromatic herbs. Oakmoss, civet, patchouli, cypress, cedar, musk, sandalwood, and styrax create a deep, earthy, woody base. The perfume has a distinctive vintage personality that is mossy, powdery, floral, and occasionally austere. Its unusual animalic depth and intense green character make it a memorable classic rather than an understated modern floral."
