If delicate, old-money rose is your thing, you're in for a treat. But don't expect a modern take; this is a powdery, elegant blast from the past for those who appreciate serious vintage charm. It's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent.

About

White Rose opens with a delicate whisper of bergamot, quickly ushering in a majestic, powdery rose that dominates the composition. This isn't a fresh-cut garden rose, but a dried, almost antique bloom, soft and slightly melancholic. A clean, sophisticated musk underpins it all, lending a subtle warmth and ensuring its classic, understated elegance lingers beautifully on the skin. It’s an ethereal, slightly aloof floral that manages to be both rich and airy.
