Doha: Secret Notes Boutique has recently hosted the launch of Maison Francis Kurkdjian’s latest fragrance. L’Homme À la rose, Francis Kurkdjian’s new olfactory opus, is clear and straightforward, its follows in the footsteps of À la rose, an iconic fragrance from the perfume manufacturer created in 2014.
Its identity speaks for itself while drawing inspiration from the famous portrait of Marie-Antoinette by Louise Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun, which exalts not the power of the Queen of France but the power of women and femininity, as she poses with a rose in place of a royal scepter. L’Homme À la rose is a woody floral eau de parfum.
In the first few seconds, very fresh, green and bursting notes paired with a grapefruit accord and essence of Damask rose from Bulgaria create a sensation of natural vitality.
Then comes the middle notes of a rosy, very woody accord which brings the fragrance verticality, gradually enhanced by the woody amber base notes which infuse the sillage with sensuality
