A La Rose Body Oil

“À la rose combines my French background with an American sensibility,” says perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, the nose behind scents for the likes of Jean Paul Gaultier, Narciso Rodriguez, Dior, and Lanvin. “Rose gives it sparkle and depth, while musk adds sexiness and texture.” Inspired by Marie Antoinette’s favorite blooms, this fresh, soft, and feminine perfume is composed of two varieties of rose—the Damask rose from Bulgaria and the Provence rose, or Rose de Mai, from Grasse—refreshed by a citrusy blend of bergamot, orange, and lemon. The bouquet of roses, velvety violets, and magnolia blossom gains character from woody notes of cedar and musk.
