Mysterious Rose is a spicy, sweet, floral scent created for Men and Women in 2019 for Amouroud’s Elixir collection.
Review
This scent is Rose upon Rose upon Rose. The Fig, Praline, Vanilla, and spices give it a dark, slightly ‘jammy’ essence. Its undertone is almost smoky. You can almost imagine yourself lost in an endless field of Rose bushes. There is nothing else on the horizon bus rows upon rows of Roses. As a heavy fog sets in, you light a fire to keep warm. It is a scent that can be worn to the office, but is much better suited for enchanting adventures or romantic moments. Whether you’re romancing yourself or your partner, it will be sure to create an air of seduction. It shares similarities with Amouage Lyric Woman.
Inspiration
Mysterious Rose is an enchanted Rose blossoming before your eyes. Unfolding one petal at a time, it hypnotizes your senses as it weaves an iridescent day into a seductive night.
Notes
Lemon Extrait brightens the sweetness of Celestial Fig and Praline that opens this scent. Pepper, Violet leaf and Osmanthus lift a blend of Tibetan and Damascus Roses, gently revealing the natural spice that Roses can carry. In the base, Bulgarian Rose joins the floral bouquet, becoming heightened with a touch of Tahitian Vanilla Absolute and slightly resinous, yet still sweet, Benzoin. A final touch of Cedar adds an earthy element that brings out the slight green essence of the Roses, and helps the warmer notes to last.
