A love story between incense and rose, it is a rich sillage that imprints theskin, perfect for those looking to complement their fragrance wardrobe with somethingextraordinary." Keeping with the brand’s signature story telling tradition, the fragrance is an olfactive interpretationof Citizen Kane and the dramatic web of human emotions within the film. Rose Incense is a manifestation of feelings of imperfection, loss, power, mastery and wealth balanced into a sophisticated and sensual scent. A fragrance that emerges from the uncertainty of life, Rose Incense is for those who never give up, who rose from the pits of despair to new staggering heights with nothingbut their ambition and determination. It is for the mavericks who have dared to do things differentlyand have fearlessly risked everything to achieve success.Rose Incense is distinctively floral and unmistakably woody with unique and contemporary elements. With Rose at its heart along with Myrrh and Frankincense at its base, the fragrance evokes a complicated tale of epic proportion. The fresh, clean and citrusy undertones of its top note Elemi, bring the fragrance together with serenity. "The inspiration came from the duality between power and innocence that is found in the movieCitizen Kane.I went looking for the most luminous and the most innocent rose I could find. In orderto contrast the rose, I used the power and the uplifting properties of incense. What I had in mindwere all these contrasts between red and black, innocence and power, clarity and smoke, radiance anddarkness, rose and incense," said Jovanovic. He added, "When you create a fragrance for Amouage, a key element is power, tremendous power.When you wear this fragrance, it is like having a cloud preceding and announcing you and followingyou. It lasts. It’s like wearing a cloud of mystery, but throughout that mystery, there is the beautifulradiance of the rose." - a note from the brand.
