Rosa Nigra
An imagined rose without a listed rose note: softer peach and musk meet sweeter wood and herbs.
Rosa Nigra takes the Assumption of the Virgin Mary as its olfactory inspiration. The official concept imagines Mary ascending in body and soul, and a rose suggested by the relationship between materials. A rose note is absent from the declared composition, leaving the other materials to evoke the flower.
Musk, cashmere wood, amber and vanilla form the subject; peach, sandalwood and freesia the counter-subject; artemisia and anise the tail. Softer peach and musk meet fresher flowers and sweeter wood. Herbal and anise-like greenery gives a clearer outline to that softer texture.
Its composition suggests fruit and musky softness alongside warmer wood. The illustrated 100mL bottle has clear rectangular glass beneath a black angular cap with visible wood grain. Fine black geometric lines cross the body near the fragrance lettering, above a thicker glass base.
