Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Summer Winter

The blend of floral, spicy, and woody notes makes this fragrance versatile enough for cool and temperate weather, ideal from spring to fall. It's less suited to the extreme summer heat.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

Its moderate projection suits office settings, while the floral and spicy elements offer allure for dating. Less ideal for formal events due to its playful character.

Declarable allergens

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.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood

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

A Kiss From A Rose opens with bright citrus and pink pepper, gradually unfolding into a rich heart of rose and geranium. As it settles, the base of spicy nutmeg and warm sandalwood emerges, lending depth and sophistication. Amber and patchouli deepen the drydown, while jasmine adds an extra layer of floral richness to the rose, creating a warm, romantic trail that lasts well into the evening.
