Korres Rose Wood Blackcurrant Cyclamen is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2009. Rose Wood Blackcurrant Cyclamen opens with Grapefruit, Rose, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Cyclamen, Rosewood, Lily, and Freesia, and dries down to a base of White Flowers and Woody Notes. Korres's Rose Wood Blackcurrant Cyclamen carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

A truly gorgeous, well-balanced floral woody scent that's sadly discontinued. It's a crowd-pleaser for most, though a few find the grapefruit accord a bit too much, smelling like an air freshener.

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.

About

Opens with a lively burst of blackcurrant and grapefruit, softened by a delicate rose, giving a fresh and fruity introduction. As it settles, cyclamen and lily emerge, creating a garden-after-rain freshness, with a hint of mint adding an invigorating twist. The base grounds the composition with warm rosewood and a blend of woody notes, offering a natural and elegant finish.
