Frederic Malle Une Rose was released in 2003, created by Eduoard Flechier as a floral fragrance. More than a floral, this is an intoxicating earthy rose scent. Notes of geranium essence, blue chamomile, wine dregs essence, honey, Turkish rose absolute and truffle accord (patchouli accord, vetiver and castoreum absolute) make up this EDP, eau de parfum.
Review of Frederic Malle Une Rose
From Ever Fumed - "Remarkably authentic from start to finish, Frédéric Malle Une Rose is a standout in a category where there’s no shortage of competition. It’s expensive but well worth every hard-earned cent."
From March at Perfume Posse - "Finally. I have fallen in love with my first rose fragrance. And I am blissfully happy to report that a full 12 hours later, on a bitterly cold night, I am still reveling in the illusion of a single summer rose somewhere in the house, the ghost down the hall, making me smile as I fold the laundry."
From Bois de Jasmin - "it is a fragrance that hides darkness of woody amber under the sweetness of crimson roses. Its utter lack of sentimentality and preciousness that are common in rose fragrances is akin to Degas’s sympathetic, yet honest treatment of ballet dancers. Beauty with a sinister edge is how Une Rose can be characterized.The top notes spill into luscious red rose petals, touched by dew. Rose is accented beautifully by geranium, which emphasizes the voluptuous quality of the central accord. A dark honeyed aspect is thrown into relief by the vividness of the rose as it unfolds slowly.
