Damascus Rose

Damascus Rose is a fragrance from the Qatari house Al-Jazeera Perfumes, composed by Dominique Ropion and released in 2019. People describe it as equally green and floral, with sweet and woody sides behind them. It is worn by anyone.

Jasmine and tuberose bring a creamy, rich and slightly heady floral note at the heart. Oakmoss and moss give a green, earthy and slightly bitter depth that keeps the flowers grounded, recalling the structure of a classic chypre. Patchouli adds an earthy warmth, and vanilla a soft, gentle sweetness that rounds off the drydown.

Its creamy floral and mossy character suits spring and autumn, daytime and elegant occasions. It should appeal to someone who likes white florals set against a green, mossy base rather than a sweet or fruity bouquet, and who enjoys a scent with a slightly vintage, polished feel.
