Moonlight Rose

A rose-centered floral chypre with a bright geranium-pink pepper opening, honeyed Taif rose heart, and an earthy patchouli-oakmoss drydown. Best worn when you want a close-to-skin but noticeable rose signature: it reads polished, slightly mysterious, and more suited to evening or cooler weather than heat.

Scent Development and Character
