,,ROSARINE, meaning “queen of roses” in Thai, encompasses the rose plant’s green and earthy nuances, while focusing on its glorious -sweet, fruity and spicy- floralcy. The fragrance is a token of the first day I visited the majestic Parc de Bagatelle in Paris; there, sitting among the thousands of roses, I promised myself to follow my heart’s desire: become a perfumer.” – Pissara Umavijani

PERFUMER’S NOTE
“Pomona Vitalis opens with fruity facets of lychee, strawberry
and apple balanced with a sparkle of bergamot. The lychee
complements the rose heart, enhancing the sense of dewy,
fresh, petals.
The heart revolves around a multi-faceted rose with both
Bulgarian rose oil with radiant metallic, green geranium shades
and fruity wine top notes, and the Rose Absolute brings a
distinctive rich and voluptuous sweetness with spicy green
honey and tobacco undertones. With a whisper of lavender.
The base is warm and enveloping with balmy vanilla and
benzoin facets, creamy shares of sandalwood and styrax which
enriches the resinous character and depth adding a leathery
tone “
Christian Provenzano
INSPIRATION
Our muse was Pomona, a captivating beauty
and the goddess of gardens, fruit and orchards. She
spent her days tending to the blossoms and fruit in the
orchard, pruning the roses in the gardens and tending
to nature. She represented abundance, plenty and
rosy fresh faced beauty to the Ancient Romans.

This delightful woody amber enters with a fresh and elegant cardamom, lightly laced with plum and pomegranate before opening into a heart of Egyptian jasmine, a fresh, aromatic, clean patchouli and a tint of rose. The light woods of sandalwood and cedar combined with a light musk and amber notes make this a light, sensuous and very versatile scent.
The fresh faced natural beauty of Persephone was free from artifice or evil, her sweet nature and purity of soul was adored by gods, goddesses and humankind. Her playground and purpose was nature, symbolic of spring and summer, she was associated with flowers, harvest, fruit, grain and the beauty and bounty of nature.
This perfume was created with Patchouli of the Underworld as a pair. Two perfumers explore the central note of Patchouli through two lenses of the same story: that of Pluto and his Queen Persephone.
“I used patchouli heart which is a cleaner patchouli note and enriched with musky and ambery textures. On top, I added fresh spicy elements, notably Cardamom from Guatemala. I combined the patchouli character with floral notes of Bulgarian rose. To enhance the fruity part of the rose, I added a note of plum that also goes really well with the warmth of the patchouli. For the floral heart, I used responsibly-sourced jasmine from Egypt for its richness. I added a gourmand twist with honey and a touch of coffee. This is rounded by a creamy facet with sandalwood notes and blond woods. And of course 6 pomegranate seeds.” Christian Provenzano

Celestial is an oriental woody floral with a heart of frankincense and exotic roses.
Complex, light and very wearable. The spices and frankincense lend a light oriental tone to the aromatic woody base and the triumvirate of roses featuring Bulgarian rose, Indian rose absolut and Turkish rose.
The olibanum at the heart of this scent is a light, lemony incense with a conifer undertone.
It settles into a light warm woody base with colour and complexity. Luminous, like the heavenly bodies that inspired it.

The Romans were keen astronomers naming the planets after gods, and such was their belief in the power and influence of the skies over their destiny that they were also keen devotees of astrology. Inspired by the glittering night skies, this fragrance heavenly, divine and fit for the gods.
ROSE MILLESIMÉE, a different kind of rose.
The embodiment of the confidential nature of the Centifolia Rose (also known as the May or cabbage rose), ROSE MILLESIMÉE is an olfactory metaphor for a moment frozen in time, the reflection of a story, a region and a tradition of craftsmanship. In homage to the Centifolia Rose, this absolute hangs back yet asserts its exceptional character. In Vanina Muracciole’s interpretation of the Rose Centifolia, attention to detail meets a quest for the sublime.
“ For years now, I’ve wanted to reproduce the Centifolia rose without artifice, without a dominant synthetic environment that would make the note consensual. It was about conserving the flower’s natural properties and suggesting comfort.”
To the Grasse region’s native blossom, Vanina Muracciole has added a dash of spices, candied apples, essence of Bulgarian rose and white musc to create a “powerful and carnal soliflore.”
The fruit of nature’s whims and unrivaled, nuanced soil, it tinges each vintage with its signature and patina.

FLORAL
Frapin honours Laskarina’s memory with a perfume of character. After all, she is a truly multi-faceted muse: part wife, mother, businesswoman and adventurer. She was unfettered, fearless, and her own woman – all qualities shared by the great heroines of history and the early feminists. More than just a perfume, Laskarina is a tribute to Womankind.
Amelie Bourgeois rose to the challenge of finding the notes for such a strong-willed perfume. She built a floral, spicy jus, gentle yet feisty, reflecting the paradox of Laskarina. You could say it embodies the iron fist in a velvet glove. Starting off on fresh, sweet notes, it ends on unyielding accords of pepper and amber.
Top notes: Italian bergamot, grapefruit, pink peppercorn, pear sorbet
Middle notes: Tunisian orange blossom, Bulgarian rose
Base notes: frankincense, black pepper, iris, Ambroxan Ambrocenide
