The story behind the bottle.
Burning Rose by Carolina Herrera was launched in 2015 as a Chypre Floral fragrance for both women and men. This composition is built around the intense contrast of fresh rose notes that burn into warm spices, creating an aura of complexity and depth. The opening is sharp with the freshness of rose and spicy accents, which gradually give way to a heart of cinnamon and patchouli, adding warmth and earthiness. This interplay between freshness and warmth makes Burning Rose a captivating scent that evolves throughout the day.
Given its long-lasting nature, one or two sprays is sufficient. Allow it to bloom for at least 15 minutes before venturing out, as the initial sharpness settles into a more nuanced warmth. Perfect for any occasion that requires a touch of sophistication.
