A dark, gothic rose that strips Centifolia bloom of all sweetness. Aurélien Guichard grows the roses himself in his Grasse fields, then darkens them with saffron, patchouli and labdanum — a chypre-leaning take that feels mineral and a little vintage. Nights of fog, autumn skies and hand-grown petals. Smouldering and elegant.
