The story behind the bottle.
Rose Ebène by Caron, launched in 2019 and crafted by perfumer Jean Jacques, is a composition that defies the usual boundaries of gender and season. The fragrance opens with saffron and spicy notes, creating an initial warmth that contrasts beautifully with the heart's rich damask rose. Leather and coffee add depth, while smoky patchouli grounds the scent in earthy complexity. This blend of warm spices, leather, and floral richness is a proof of Caron’s enduring legacy as a house known for its innovative and luxurious fragrances.
Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a lasting warmth. The spicy and smoky notes will project well initially, but the rose and patchouli base requires time to develop fully — expect it to evolve over several hours.
