The story behind the bottle.
Rose Ivoire by Caron was launched in 2019 and crafted by the renowned perfumer Jean Jacques. The fragrance opens with a striking contrast between white pepper's spicy freshness and the delicate beauty of Damask rose, creating an explosive duo that captivates from the start. This composition is anchored by a base of white musk, iris, and ambrette (musk mallow), which adds depth and warmth to the overall scent. The interplay between these notes makes Rose Ivoire both captivatingly modern and classically elegant.
For best effect, apply Rose Ivoire in light layers — the white pepper top note is bright but fleeting. The base notes take about an hour to fully bloom, so plan accordingly. This fragrance reads better close to skin than across a room, making it perfect for intimate settings.
