Matière Première Radical Rose is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Aurélien Guichard. Radical Rose opens with Pepper and Saffron, settles into a heart of Immortelle and Rose, and dries down to a base of Patchouli and Labdanum. Matière Première's Radical Rose carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

This is a divisive but much-lauded beast of a fragrance. If you're after a sophisticated, intensely dark rose that sticks around for days, this is your weapon. But be warned, it's not for the faint-hearted and can be headache-inducing for some.

About

Radical Rose Extrait plunges you into a deep, dark rose, boosted by warm, peppery spices right from the off. Earthy patchouli provides a grounding undercurrent, while a hint of leathery saffron weaves through, adding a modern, mysterious edge. Labdanum and immortelle contribute a rich, resinous depth, making this rose anything but delicate or shy.
