Rose de Kelaa
Fragrance notes
Character
Galbanum hits first, sharp and resinous, slicing through the air like a fresh stem snapped cleanly in the garden. Lemon follows with a bright, zesty spark that feels immediate and unpolished. Basil adds a savory, herbal edge that keeps the opening from leaning into typical citrus sweetness.
Damask rose settles in with a deep, velvety texture, supported by the lush softness of plum and the creamy white floral lift of jasmine. Oakmoss and patchouli bring a damp, shaded earthiness to the base, while vetiver threads through with a dry, grassy roughness. The mossy and balsamic accords give the entire composition a shadowed, forest-floor weight.
Sunlight filters through a canopy of leaves onto a stone path where the air smells of crushed greenery and damp earth. The scent feels grounded and honest, though the basil can occasionally turn aggressively metallic against the skin. The plum note also struggles to emerge clearly, often smothered by the dense, herbal greens.
