The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2006 and created by Francis Kurkdjian, Rose de Siwa by MDCI Parfums is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that captures the essence of a delicate rose garden. The composition opens with peony and litchi, bringing a fresh and fruity brightness to the top notes before settling into the heart of hawthorn and rose. These floral elements are complemented by the subtle powdery undertones of violet and musk, while vetiver and Virginia cedar provide a woody base that grounds the fragrance with warmth.
Apply this fragrance with a light hand — the fresh top notes are vibrant but fleeting. The powdery base develops slowly over time, making it ideal for layering or wearing close to the skin. It pairs well with the warmth of early autumn days.
