Created by perfumer \u003cstrong\u003eDominique Ropion\u003c\/strong\u003e, this fragrance transforms Turkish rose into a majestic, deep and almost theatrical material. As it evolves, incense, patchouli and sandalwood shape an intense oriental fragrance, enveloped by an ambery, vanilla and woody base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Composition of Rose, Incense and Patchouli\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition is built around a striking contrast between the tangy freshness of \u003cstrong\u003ered fruits\u003c\/strong\u003e and the spicy richness of cinnamon and clove. At the heart, Turkish rose combines with incense, patchouli, sandalwood and ylang-ylang to create a dark, textured floral presence. The base extends this signature with \u003cstrong\u003eamber, benzoin, cedar, musk and vanilla\u003c\/strong\u003e, giving Portrait of a Lady a particularly enveloping depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho Is This Niche Fragrance For?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePortrait of a Lady\u003c\/strong\u003e is made for fragrance lovers seeking a rose far removed from light or simply romantic compositions. It will appeal to someone elegant and independent who is drawn to complex sillage combining floral sophistication, ambery sensuality and woody character. This unisex fragrance can be worn by both women and men, provided they appreciate highly distinctive niche fragrances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen to Wear Portrait of a Lady?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its heart of \u003cstrong\u003eTurkish rose, patchouli and incense\u003c\/strong\u003e, Portrait of a Lady reveals its full richness on cool days and enveloping evenings.
