Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Othoniel Rosa opens with pepper and spicy notes, which give the rose a dry, sparkling lift rather than letting it turn sweet. The heart is rose, which sits at the centre of the whole scent. In the base are vetiver, akigalawood and ambrette, bringing an earthy, woody and slightly musky depth that keeps the rose grounded. The result is a unisex rose from Diptyque that feels spicy, dry and modern rather than soft and romantic. It suits anyone who likes rose but wants it with some bite and structure.
