The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2019 by Chloé, Rosa Damascena was crafted by perfumer Amandine Clerc-Marie to embody the essence of the damask rose. The fragrance opens with a bright citrus accord that cuts through the sweetness of the floral heart, where rose takes center stage. This contrast creates an engaging tension between freshness and richness, making it a composition both crisp and warm.

How to wear it

Apply Rosa Damascena lightly at first; the citrus top notes are vibrant but dissipate quickly. The rose base note develops fully over time, so reapply as needed to maintain its warmth throughout the day.
