The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2022 by Dries Van Noten, Rosa Carnivora is a Floral fragrance for both women and men, crafted by perfumer Daphné Bugey. The composition opens with the bright sparkle of pink pepper and rose, creating an immediate sense of freshness and intrigue. As it evolves, vetiver and patchouli ground the scent in earthy warmth, while labdanum adds a soft, spicy depth that feels both familiar and unexpected. Rosa Carnivora is a fragrance that invites contemplation, balancing the delicate beauty of florals with subtle spiciness and woody notes.

How to wear it

Apply Rosa Carnivora in moderation — one or two sprays are sufficient to capture its balanced complexity. The top notes dissipate quickly, so it’s best worn close to skin where the vetiver and patchouli can develop fully over time. It pairs well with cooler weather but remains versatile enough for any season.
