Radical Rose (2011 Original)
EDPUnisex
The Story
Radical Rose is a bold, uncompromising rose that feels both classic and modern. Aurélien Guichard uses a centifolia rose absolute from Grasse, giving it a deep, honeyed richness. The opening is a burst of pink pepper and saffron, leading to a heart of pure rose, while the base of patchouli and ambroxan adds a clean, woody finish. It's a rose for people who think they don't like rose.
