by Zaharoff
Signature Rosé by Zaharoff is a luxuriously refined rose fragrance with a rich, multifaceted character that balances sweet floral depth with subtle woody, resinous, and incense accords. The opening presents a radiant, fresh bouquet of Bulgarian and Turkish rose—bright, juicy, and incense-like—evoking not a perfumed rose but a living flower in full bloom. As it unfolds, it morphs into a sophisticated blend where incense, myrrh, frankincense, amber, sugar cane, vanilla, sandalwood, and a whisper of oud create a layered, warm base that is both elegant and quietly powerful. The scent is not overtly sweet or gourmand, yet possesses a honeyed, velvety sweetness that feels natural and seamless. It wears as a truly unisex fragrance, with an orientation that leans slightly masculine in wear chemistry, though not aggressively so. The olfactory journey is consistent, deeply photorealistic, and emotionally evocative—reminiscent of a church, a garden of vintage roses, or a luxurious rose wine. Performance is outstanding, with long wear and moderate to strong sillage that lingers well into the evening. Its balance, craftsmanship, and depth have earned it a cult status among rose enthusiasts. Though some find it too sweet or overly feminine, most agree on its exceptional blending, longevity, and modern yet timeless character. It's best worn in cooler weather and is ideal for those who appreciate a refined, narrative-driven style of fragrance.
