A Tea Rose is a name given to a type of rose. This is not a rose mixed with a tea note fragrance. 🙂

This is not just a typical Rose-Oud combo. In fact, Rose Anonyme is super unique and is in a league of its own. Let’s take a look…

Now, it’s your turn…

If you LOVE the smell of real roses… and you’re bored of all the sweet syrupy rose fragrances — then maybe this is for you. Maison Francis Kurkdjian are a luxury niche perfume house, co-founded in 2009, by the legend master perfumer himself: Francis Kurkdjian. Although this is called Cologne Absolue, it’s actually pure perfume concentrated at 18%. What does that mean for you? Intense Café opens with a blend of sweet rose, white florals and vanilla… mixed with a hint of sweet creamy coffee. Sweet Creamy Coffee

null Great fragrance at a great price Great long lasting fragrance. Every time I wear it people comment on how nice it isThis has excellent lasting power — up to 10 hours. However, it’s not a projection monster, it’s subtle and none-offensive. This has super performance: it lasts and lasts and lasts… And it jumps off your skin for the first few hours — so be careful with the sprayer.

Please don’t judge this fragrance by the initial strong opening. Be patient and wait until it dries down — for the magic to happen. 🙂 Stay with me… Praline & Vanilla There are some 'bases' that perfume houses make which approximate the smell of oud, and contain a blend of synthetic and natural ingredients - important to capture the complexity of oud itself," says Gilbert.

In fact, Tea Rose has got a LOT of love over the years and has been worn by many famous women, such as Princess Diana, Nicole Kidman, Princess Grace of Monaco, to name but a few.

As it starts to dry down… the rose starts to come more into play and is joined with some amber — to give a slightly sweet, peppery, honey-rose quality. Karenia Rose Oud Vaporiser Great service from M & S - Rose Oud was to chemically for me unfortunately…The oil that is extracted using a steam distillation method, are called rose otto or attar of roses. And oil that is extracted using solvents, are called rose absolutes. For a slightly more local jaunt, the next time you pass by a Sephora or a department store's fragrance section, be sure to take a whiff of those aforementioned oud fragrances and smell for yourself.
