Guerlain (L'Art et la Matiere) · Francis Kurkdjian · Floral
At a glance
Created by Francis Kurkdjian for Guerlain's L'Art et la Matiere collection, Rose Barbare opens on Ottoman rose, moves through a heart of honey and chypre notes, and closes on patchouli and musk, offering a dark, savage reinterpretation of rose, its title meaning Barbarian Rose, distinct from Guerlain's softer, more classical rose compositions like Nahema.
