The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2023, 1968 by Rosendo Mateu Olfactive Expressions captures the essence of a fresh dawn with its blend of green and floral notes. The fragrance opens with a dewy freshness that transitions into the lush, velvety heart of tuberose and rose, supported by aromatic spices. The base layers of musk and woody accords ground this composition, creating a sense of earthiness and warmth. This unisex scent is both classic and contemporary, reflecting Rosendo Mateu's signature style.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance directly to your pulse points for maximum impact. The green and floral top notes are bright but fleeting, while the base notes of musk and woody accords develop over time, creating a warm and lingering scent that feels both fresh and sensual.
