By the editors · 2 min readBulgarian rose and may rose open layered — the Bulgarian variety leading with its dense honeyed jam character, may rose adding a fresher, slightly green floral lift. The top reads thick and saturated, more attar than airy bouquet.
Saffron in the heart twists the rose into something dried and leathery, the spice's characteristic dyer's-quality coloring the bouquet a deeper, more amber-pink shade. The middle has a slightly oud-tinged warmth from the broader accord profile.
Tonka, vanilla, and patchouli close the composition rich and slightly gourmand-adjacent — vanilla turning the rose toward dessert, patchouli pulling it back toward dusky earth. The whole arc is a saffron-rose attar feel with a sweet woody close, lasting and saturated rather than transparent.
