Rose d’Arabie captures the voluptuous hedonism of the Orient. I wanted a damask rose perfume that resonated like a desert melody. I imagined an intoxicating rose, which could take you directly to its unabashed sensuality.
The rose was one of the first flowers to yield the secret of its fragrance. An attar of rose, the flower’s essence, became the perfumed secret with honey-colored reflections worn equally by men and by women. For Giorgio Armani, Damascus rose is the incarnation of sensuality; it has the rhythm of purple and gold silk: slow, radiant and shimmering. Rose d’Arabie is a majestic ode to the essence of rose. Spicy with flashes of saffron at the outset, it chooses patchouli and dark woods in order to develop at the heart. At the base it gives itself up to the sensual harmonies of golden amber.
