The story behind the bottle.
Lipstick Rose Limited Edition 2018 by Frederic Malle is a floral fragrance that marries the boldness of rose with subtle powdery and musky notes, creating an elegant and sophisticated scent. Launched in 2018 and crafted by Ralf Schwieger, this composition opens with a vibrant burst of rose and violet, gradually giving way to a warm heart of vanilla and woody accords that provide depth and complexity.
Apply this parfum in light layers — a little goes a long way. The rose and violet notes are immediate but fade within an hour, so it's best to layer on more as needed throughout the day. This fragrance reads better close to skin rather than across a room.
