Launched in 2012 by Guerlain, Rose Nacree du Desert is a creation by perfumer Thierry Wasser that captures the essence of the Persian rose. This Oriental Floral fragrance combines creamy and dark facets of the rose with warm spices like saffron and patchouli, underscored by the mysterious charm of oud and rich amber resin. The result is a composition that balances lush florals with earthy, woody notes, creating an intriguing tension between sweetness and depth.
