From the brand - "This stunning scent of floral leather excellence premieres an exclusive rose-on-rose co-distillation note of rose absolute and rose water extract. Precious blooms are bound in a spellbinding bouquet accented with white pepper, musk and woods."
Fragrantica - "Super masculine, leather fronted rose. This stuff is just gorgous! Opens with a slightly spicy and aromatic rose with the leather taking a back seat, but as it progresses, the leather gets more prominent and the rose fades into the background but never quite disappears. Sillage is moderate, but it's the longevity of this stuff that really impressed me "
Fragrantica - "Peppery, Earthy, Leathery and Dark Rose. The Rose feels more masculine. The rose is fresh in this, and the opening is a bit harsh in my opinion but it does calm down to this rosy leather feeling. Performance is about 6 hours. This feels like a Tom Ford fragrance which I admire, because it is daring. It's a challenging wear, but fascinating and unisex."
Fragrantica - "Tried this today not expecting much as not a massive fan of TF nor do I typically like rose scents. BUT…I loved this! A nice soft, powdery rose but a kick of leather which makes it dirty and earthy. Perfectly unisex!"
Fragrantica - "This really surprised me with it's spicy opening and soft rose undertones. After half an hour or so this was a leathery rose scent that I really enjoyed. Definitely more masculine leaning but there is a slight creamy and powdery touch keeping it balanced, for me at least."
Fragrantica - "Rose Exposed starts as a very smoky incense rose that’s dirty ‘n’ earthy with a damp cemetery or dark tunnel style petrichor. It billows with sooty black chimney smoke and frankincense incense. The rose in the centre of the swirling smoke is an innocent pink loukhoum style Turkish Delight that’s sweet, peppery, clean and clinical. Rose Exposed is slightly similar to Incense Rose but the latter has a sticky sweet jammy rose with vanilla which isn’t dry. It’s also in a same scent family as Les Sables Roses as it shares a similar dry, metallic smoke and clinical saffron style with a sweet pink Bulgarian rose and extraordinary beastmode quality. It’s here in the dry-down which reminds me of Les Sables Roses, as it loses the black soot from the opening and leaves a dusty dry metallic saffron rose. It’s not so much powdery as it is dusty. Rose Exposed is the strongest creation from Tom Ford and is the quality I’ve been hoping for after many sub-par creations over the past few years. It’s almost akin to Roja Dove’s latest Taif Aoud with its strength of character and aromatic potency. A powerful chimney smoke rose that’s worth exploring."
