UN ZEST DE ROSE

Inspiration

Some rose fragrances captivate with richness and sensuality, while others enchant through freshness and effortless elegance. Un Zest de Rose belongs to the latter. Inspired by an almost white rose blooming in June, whose delicate petals released an unexpected scent of sparkling lemon and fresh roses, this fragrance celebrates the luminous harmony between vibrant citrus fruits and the timeless beauty of the rose.

The composition opens with an exhilarating burst of lemon essence, bergamot and orange peel, instantly filling the air with radiant freshness. A subtle accord of dried fruits adds a delicate sweetness and depth, giving the citrus notes a refined complexity without diminishing their sparkling character. Bright, crisp and uplifting, the opening evokes the feeling of a sunlit garden awakening on a warm summer morning.

At the heart of the fragrance, elegant rose blossoms intertwine with green tea and jasmine. The green tea introduces a refined freshness that enhances the natural beauty of the rose, while jasmine softens the floral heart with graceful sophistication. Together they create a rose fragrance that remains airy, luminous and wonderfully contemporary from beginning to end.

The base combines maté, ambergris and white musk to create a soft, skin-like trail that prolongs the fragrance's refreshing character while adding subtle warmth and elegance. Created by Delphine Collignon and François Robert in 2002, Un Zest de Rose is a celebration of natural refinement, capturing the effortless beauty of a freshly picked rose kissed by sparkling citrus.
