The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2016 and crafted by Alberto Morillas, Rose Exaltante by Mizensir is a fragrance that balances the boldness of Bulgarian rose with subtle animalic undertones. The opening notes of Bulgarian rose and Hedione are bright and fresh, immediately drawing you into its floral heart. As the scent evolves, it reveals layers of Laotian oud and musk, adding depth and warmth to the composition. This interplay between florals and animalics creates a fragrance that is both alluring and complex.
Apply this fragrance lightly at first — the Bulgarian rose top notes are vibrant but fade quickly. Give it time to settle into its musky base, which blooms after about an hour and lasts well into evening.
