Initio Parfums Privés Atomic Rose is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2019. Atomic Rose opens with Bergamot and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Rose and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Amber and Vanilla. Initio Parfums Privés's Atomic Rose carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

Atomic Rose by Initio is a divisive one. You'll either adore this bombastic, modern take on rose with its vibrant sparkle and powerful throw, or find it a screechy, synthetic nightmare. It’s a love-it-or-hate-it beast that certainly isn't for the faint of heart, but if it works for you, get ready for compliments.

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

About

Exploding with a vibrant, peppery rose, this scent opens with a lively burst of bergamot that quickly gives way to a lush, almost jammy floral heart of rose and jasmine. As it settles, a warm, sensual amber and creamy vanilla emerge, wrapping the powerful florals in a sophisticated, sweet embrace. It's a bold, full-bodied rose, confident and rich, with an undeniable sweetness.
