By the editors · 2 min readBulgarian rose opens immediately and dominates — no citrus prelude or green leaf phase, just a full-bloom rose at strength from the first second. The character is jammy-petal rather than thorny-green, deep and slightly honeyed.
With no listed heart, the rose continues uninterrupted into the middle, the focus staying singular and concentrated. Musk drifts up underneath, lending a soft warmth that keeps the rose from feeling brittle.
Ambroxan and musk handle the base. Ambroxan lends its salty-mineral, slightly woody halo that sustains projection without obvious sweetness, while musk pushes the close skin-warm and clean. The trajectory is rose-to-skin, simple and elegant. A wearable modern soliflore, unisex-leaning, comfortable across most seasons.
