At its best in Spring and Fall — a daytime scent.
Rosa Centifolia by J.F. Schwarzlose Berlin is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women and men. Rosa Centifolia was launched in 2022. The nose behind this fragrance is Véronique Nyberg. Top notes are Petitgrain, Cardamom and Osmanthus; middle notes are Bourbon Geranium, Rose and Jasmine; base notes are Bourbon Vetiver, Sandalwood and Myrrh. Nuances of sandalwood and tangy, leafy green freshness are her harbingers. Then she awakens – the hundred-petalled rose on her spicy rose bush: Subtle at first, but then with confidence and radiating presence. Rosa Centifolia lasciviously reveals her body, striving towards light and life with her cool buds. She shines, blooms, and reigns. She is the rose that came to conquer and stay. Freely interpreting Gertrude Stein: A rose is a rose is an icon. Like all of J.F. Schwarzlose’s perfume revitalizations, the character of this latest one defies conventional scent expectations.) Rosa Centifolia is deeply rooted in its history as the most legendary creation of the Berlin based perfume house. Its reinvention surprises with a completely new perception of a rose and takes the rose theme into a whole new world without gender boundaries. This new Rosa Centifolia blossoms coolly above the warmth of woods and spices and it comes with a message: Expect the unexpected! The iconic Rose Centifolia – often called ‘Rose de Mai’ – beats at the heart of some of the world’s most prestigious perfumes. Its flowers are always harvested in the early morning freshness, allowing hundreds of aromatic molecules to contribute to Rose Centifolia’s extraordinarily rich olfactory profile Elegant pastel nuances with a lemony facet and a very light pepper effect contribute structure and volume. In J.F. Schwarzlose’s tenth creation since its rebirth, the Rose Centifolia Absolute develops a transparent, cool note with an earthy and sensual intensity that is anything but volatile.
