ABOUT THE FRAGRANCE:ORIENTAL ROSEA lavish oriental rose. A crossbetween a couture evening dressand the tales of 1,000 nights. KEY NOTES:- Top notes: Rose- Middle notes: Black Currant, Raspberry, Clove- Base notes: Patchouli, Sandalwood, Frankincense A baroque, sumptuous and symphonic perfume that required hundreds of trials to balance such an expressive formula, Portrait of a Lady is undoubtedly the perfume containing the strongest ever dosage of rose essence and patchouli heart. Dominique Ropion composed an oriental rose, based on an accord of benzoin, cinnamon, sandalwood and, above all, patchouli, musk and frankincense. A perfume evocative of sensuous beauty, that attracts people like a magnet. A modern classic. Customer review: "A chic type of punk like Vivienne Westwood, a sophisticated goth like Tom Ford, badass, sexy as hell, a juxtaposition of smutty with refinement. This fragrance is all confidence and LOUD. This is as perfect a modernish take on an old-school french perfume can be." 1.7 oz./ 50 ml - 80% of the bottle = 40 ml Currently 1.7 oz./50 ml sells for $295 and 3.4 oz./100 ml for $470. 100% authentic - purchased from Neiman Marcus, stored in a cold and dark place Please note that if you purchase in an online store for more than 40% of what department or official stores sell it for, there is a big possibility that you are purchasing an overpriced replica that will look and smell similar but has nothing to do with the authentic perfume.
