Description

Rose Damascena Absolute is a luxurious natural floral material derived from Rosa damascena, one of the most prized rose varieties in perfumery.

It offers a beautifully complex profile combining rich floral, honeyed, warm, green, soft and subtly spicy facets. Its natural depth creates a more nuanced and sophisticated rose character than a simple rose accord, with delicate nuances that unfold throughout the fragrance.

Rose Damascena Absolute is a classic choice for fine perfumery, attars, floral fragrances, oriental compositions and luxury perfumes. It can be used as the main floral heart or to enrich rose-based accords with greater natural complexity.

Perfumers' Tip

Rose Damascena Absolute is excellent for creating a deep, natural and luxurious rose heart. Combine it with Phenethyl Alcohol, Citronellol and Geraniol to emphasize a realistic fresh-petal effect, or add Rose Oxide for a brighter, greener and more sparkling character.

For a classic oriental composition, try Rose Damascena Absolute + Oud Accord + Saffron + Patchouli + Sandalwood. Raspberry and Blackcurrant can introduce a modern fruity dimension, while Jasmine and Ylang Ylang create a richer floral bouquet.

Benzoin, Labdanum and soft musks can add warmth and smoothness to the drydown.
