An exceptional fragrance by Dominique Ropion, Portrait Of A Lady enhances the opulence and voluptuousness of the Turkish rose in extravagant proportions. With Portrait Of A Lady, Frédéric Malle and perfumer Dominique Ropion mark a new stage in the great timeline of perfumery. With this immoderate rose, magnified by woody tones, amber and incense, the designers are redrawing the contours of the cypress, an olfactory family synonymous with the finest eras of 20th-century perfumery. Their play of light and shadow, their elegance and extreme refinement. From this expert craftsmanship, there emerges a splendour created to outlast time. Rose, patchouli, sandalwood, incense. Top notes: raspberry Middle notes: rose damascena Base notes: patchouli
Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle operates like a publishing house for perfume, commissioning the world's greatest noses to create extraordinary fragrances with no creative restrictions and unlimited budgets, then crediting them as authors on the bottle. The result, since its launch in 2000, has been a body of work that includes some of modern perfumery's most celebrated creations: Portrait of a Lady, Carnal Flower, Musc Ravageur. Avant-garde, uncompromising and genuinely unlike anything else.
