About

Desert Rose opens with a vivid, punchy passionfruit and saffron burst, intertwined with a rich, velvety rose. As it settles, a clean, slightly animalic leather accord emerges, grounded by an earthy patchouli. The dry-down is a smooth luxurious blend of warm amber, creamy vanilla, and deep labdanum, creating a sophisticated and enduring skin scent.
