Ateliers Des Ors - Black Collection - Rose Omeyyade

Rose Omeyyade from Atelier Des Ors shows us a rose in all its purity and delicacy. This is the pale pink rose from the kingdom of Umayyad, in the magical East. So one willingly gives oneself over to pure indulgence in the sensual delights of candied pink rose petals, both fresh-tart and honeyed-sweet in their presentation as a multi-faceted bloom. A spicy pink pepper and fruity raspberry note open things up with a flirtatious, bright tone that is almost champagne-like. Warm woods and leather mark a soft but sturdy drydown upon which this sparkling, boozy rose rests. In the far drydown, an extra delight - a caramelized gaiac wood gives us curlicues of woodsmoke and brown sugar for days, while precious sandalwood, oud, and amber stake out this scent's deeply, genuinely oriental credentials.
