Rose de Mai (Майская роза)
Fragrance notes
Character
The afternoon sun warms a stone terrace where a bowl of fresh rose petals sits beside a glass of cold lemon verbena tea. A light breeze carries the scent of lavender sprigs growing near the wall. Rose de Mai (Майская роза) opens in this space with a bright floral greeting that feels clean and unforced. Soft thyme and oregano move through the air as you brush against the potted herbs on the table. The aroma stays close enough to feel personal while filling the immediate space with its presence. It remains present through the hour as the daylight shifts across the terrace floor.
Morgane Collinot composed this Brocard fragrance for women in 2019. May rose and rose hip deepen the heart, while rose geranium and patchouli anchor the base with an earthy, green touch. The scent is aromatic and fresh spicy rather than sweet. It suits someone who enjoys the smell of a garden in full bloom without heavy sweetness. Those who prefer dark, resinous perfumes may find this blend too airy. The herbal edge keeps the roses from becoming a simple floral statement.
You sit with a book open on your lap while the warm air carries the scent of petals and crushed thyme across the terrace.
