In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Épine de Rose by Mizensir delivers a crisp, spicy twist on fresh garden roses. It opens with juicy mandarin orange, sharp fresh ginger, and a faint hint of dry agarwood. As it settles on skin, dewy Bulgarian rose petals mix with the prickle of pink pepper and cracked black pepper. The base grounds the floral freshness…

Reviews →

Pink Carrot by Pisello Parfum balances bright citrus with heavy woods. Saffron and orange blossom give way to a dry, resinous heart of tobacco and coffee, before settling into a dark, smoky agarwood base. It is a dense, warming scent built for cold autumn nights and formal winter settings.
