Les Parfums de Rosine Secrets de Rose is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009. Secrets de Rose opens with Bitter Orange, Rose, Saffron, and Licorice, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, Magnolia, and Cumin, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Sandalwood, and Oakmoss. Les Parfums de Rosine's Secrets de Rose carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

This is a grown-up, opulent rose that's undeniably divisive. Some find it a mysterious, sensual dream, while others are put off by a peculiar 'vintage' or even 'dusty' note. Try before you buy, but if it clicks, it's a stunner.

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

Secrets de Rose opens with a rich, dark rose, immediately deepened by the sweetness of plum and the unique, spicy lift of saffron and a hint of bitter orange. The heart introduces a creamy blend of magnolia and ylang-ylang, with a whisper of cumin adding an intriguing, almost animalic warmth. As it settles, a luxurious base of amber, labdanum, and smooth sandalwood emerges, wrapped in soft musk and a touch of earthy oakmoss, creating a velvety and sophisticated finish.
