Rose Prick Eau de Parfum

eau de parfum

"The prick of a rose. The slight pain that gives such sensual pleasure. ROSE PRICK is inspired by my own rose garden, a wild potpourri of intoxicating and rare combinations. A trilogy of Rose de Mai, Turkish and Bulgarian roses. Clear and untouched. Warm and sensual. An exciting bouquet of blossoms in pink perfection. The danger of being so close to true beauty enhances the seductive power of ROSE PRICK."

- TOM FORD

This beauty is evident right from the start: The fragrance opens with a floral bouquet of Bulgarian roses and Rose de Mai, punctuated by the pungent fire of Szechuan pepper and the ginger-like notes of turmeric extract. The heart note of TOM FORD ROSE PRICK is Damask rose, one of the rarest rose species in the world, of which over one million blossoms are needed for one kilogram of rose oil. As its beguiling fragrance unfolds, Indonesian patchouli spreads a hint of woody chypre and roasted tonka bean provides warmth with notes of caramel and vanilla. A finish of tolu balsam and notes of engaging musk capture the blushing beauty of luminous flowers on a thorny branch. The finish is so sweet that you will remember the beauty of the rose long after the thorns have pricked.

• Fragrance: Floral, Creamy
• Main notes: Rose, pepper, ginger, turmeric, rose, caramel, vanilla, tolu balsam, musk, patchouli

Application: The fragrance is enhanced by the warmth of your own body. For a longer-lasting, more intense fragrance, apply to the crook of your knees and elbows. Avoid rubbing or dabbing the skin after application. This will break down the fragrance and allow it to wear off more quickly. If you prefer to place the fragrance on your wrists, you will need to reapply after frequent hand washing as this will help to rinse off the fragrance.
