Rose de Damas

Rose de Damas

A sheer water-based rose veil, gently spiced with ginger and balanced by vetiver, cedar and soft musk. It wears like fresh petals on clean skin, refined and quietly intimate rather than opulent.

Scent Development and Character

Eau Triple Damask Rose unfolds as a supple, naturalistic rose bouquet brightened by a soft thread of ginger, giving the petals a cool, slightly spicy shimmer rather than a hot kick. As it settles, vetiver introduces a gentle dry-earth and herbal facet that reins in the sweetness, while cedar and musk form a quiet, velvety frame that feels more like polished wood and clean skin than heavy base notes. The water-based formula keeps the whole composition diaphanous and silky, allowing the rose to linger as a refined veil rather than a dense cloud.

Who It Is For and When to Wear It

This fragrance behaves as a subtle, skin-close rose that works well in quiet, indoor contexts where heavy projection would be distracting. Its transparent, petal-like texture suits office wear, study, or daytime social occasions, especially in mild to warm weather from spring through early autumn. Because the water-based formula emphasizes discretion and comfort, it is ideal for those who enjoy rose but prefer a modern, airy interpretation that will not dominate shared spaces or linger aggressively. Best suited to spring and early autumn, with enough softness to remain comfortable on mild summer days, while its light structure may feel too delicate to fully register in very cold winter air. Sillage is Sillage stays close to the wearer, radiating a gentle aura within arm’s length rather than filling a room, and tends to soften quickly after the initial application. Longevity is Longevity is generally modest, often remaining perceptible for around 3–5 hours as a soft rose veil before fading, in line with the discreet character of the Eau Triple water-based formula.

Perfumer and Bottle

Released in 2014, this is presented as Eau Triple and credited to Undisclosed. Officine Universelle Buly’s Eau Triple Damask Rose comes in the line’s signature apothecary-style clear glass flacon, with a flat, shield-like profile and rounded shoulders. The front bears a richly decorated, cream-colored label with classical motifs and the fragrance name, while the cap is a sculpted, metallic stopper echoing antique perfume vials rather than a simple cork.
