Our view
In the Middle East, a promise engages the honour of the one who makes it. Frédéric Malle celebrates this unbreakable bond with two precious roses, like two beating hearts: Bulgarian rose essence and Turkish rose absolute, lifted by green apple, pepper and clove, on a magnetic base of patchouli, cypriol and labdanum. As powerful as an eternal vow.
When to wear it
In autumn and winter, in the evening. An intense oriental rose for special occasions.
