By the editors · 2 min readRose & Dragon opens hot — cinnamon and cumin sliding straight into saffron, no citrus interlude. The first minutes are skin-warm and slightly animal, the spices wrapped tight.
Bulgarian rose blooms through the heart with honey thickening it, and a sliver of incense pulls everything toward smoke. The base is where the perfume earns its name: leather and castoreum hold up a resinous scaffold of labdanum and amber, the rose still legible against the dark. Strawberry surfaces faintly, more fermented than fresh, an animalic blink rather than a fruit. It projects, lasts long, and stays distinctly old-world — a perfume that wears like a coat, not a shirt.
