THE EXPLOSION OF A BOUQUET OF ROSES
A symbol of love, tenderness and purity, the rose is here played out in major mode: an essence, an absolute and an ‘LMR Ultimate’ (an upcycling of previously discarded rose petals) declaim their grandiose floral poetry in unison. Facing the queen of flowers is her extreme opposite: gunpowder. An explosive mix of sulphur, potassium nitrate and charcoal, this ingredient - in the form of a capture headspace - unfurls its metallic, cold and smoky facets. It's an unusual component, but the ideal one to shake up the classicism of the rose and push it to its limits. What emerges is the image of a bouquet of roses whose grace lies in the dramatic explosion of its petals.
A fragrance of imperative hope, Rose_Headspace captures our most contradictory facets - beauty and violence, vice and virtue - and forcibly brings them together to create something unique, singular, ultimately human?
AN AROMATIC EXPLOSION OF CAMPHOR, MINT AND BASIL MEETS THE AUSTERE ELEGANCE OF GUNPOWDER. A VIBRANT ROSE SOON EMERGES, VIRILE WITH GERANIUM AND FACETTED WITH BLACKCURRANT BUDS. INCENSE PROLONGS THE CONTRAST WITH A TRAIL OF VETIVER AND BENZOIN, BETWEEN WOOD AND AMBER. A FRAGRANCE OF IMPERATIVE HOPE, THIS WOODY AROMATIC-FLORAL CAPTURES OUR MOST CONTRADICTORY FACETS - BEAUTY AND VIOLENCE, VICE AND VIRTUE - AND BRINGS THEM TOGETHER TO CREATE SOMETHING UNIQUE.
