Maggie: Decadent and divine, the Persian rose beloved by Qajar artists and Sufi poets alike; the petals symbolize the curtains of knowledge that lead to the heart as well as to carnal intimacy. This perfume explores the many facets of the rose that include the flower and its fruits. Floral and jammy with a musk accord layered onto a Buddha-w’oudh and ambergris base. The classical pairing of saffron and rose are part of an ornate tableau that wafts languorously over a garden wall at dusk. Such fragrant intoxication.
