The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

The Library Collection Rose Incense by Amouage was launched in 2019, crafted by perfumer Bruno Jovanovic. This Oriental Floral fragrance for both women and men offers a distinctive blend of rose and incense, with the aromatic and woody notes creating an intricate balance. The opening with elemi and olibanum gives way to the rich heart of rose water and suede, while the base of myrrh, sandalwood, vanilla, and cedar provides warmth and depth.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance lightly; the incense notes will project well, while the rose and powdery base develop gradually over time. It’s best suited for evening wear when you want a subtle yet lingering presence.
