Jasmin Antique Rogue
by Rogue Perfumery
Jasmin Antique Rogue delivers a deeply authentic and uncompromising jasmine experience, instantly recognizable for its bold, indolic opening that evokes ripe, overripe jasmine blooms on a humid summer night. The initial wave is rich and animalic, with a slightly skanky, 'funky' depth that many find intense but mesmerizing—reminiscent of ancient books, dusty antique stores, or fresh-cut flowers in full bloom. Over time, it mellows into a warm, musky, and subtly spiced accord with clove and vanilla, creating a sensual, narcotic dry-down that clings to skin and fabric. Its sillage is strong and bold—intentionally standout, especially in the first few hours—making it a statement fragrance for evening wear or intimate settings. The longevity is notably strong, lasting 5-8 hours on most skin types, with projection remaining impressive even after the opening phase fades.
Pros
- +Extremely realistic, lifelike jasmine soliflore that feels authentic and nuanced like fresh flowers in bloom
- +Strong projection and long lasting performance, especially when applied to clothing
- +A beautifully balanced blend where subtle clove and vanilla enhance the jasmine without overwhelming it
Cons
- −Extremely indolic and heavy in the opening, which may be off-putting to those sensitive to animalic or funk notes
- −Longevity is highly variable—lasts well on fabrics but can fade quickly on skin for some
- −Highly intense sillage makes it unsuitable for casual or daytime use, despite being unisex in character
