Rose 01 Experience Gift Set
Swiss Arabian Rose 01 Experience Gift Set is a rose fragrance boxed for giving, and rose is the safest flower to give, which is presumably why it exists in this form.
The scent is straightforward and warm. Pink pepper and bergamot provide a short bright opening, no more than ten minutes of it, and then bulgarian rose arrives, which is the richer and darker kind of rose material, deeper than the garden flower and with a slight jamminess to it.
Around it, peony adds a light, almost papery sweetness and nutmeg a dusty warm spice, and between them they keep the rose from being either too sharp or too sugary. It is a well judged heart and it is where the fragrance spends most of its time.
Cashmeran, vanilla and musk finish it, soft, sweet and clean in that order, so the last hours smell warm and close rather than floral. Eight materials in total and no complications. As a present it is a sound choice for someone who likes flowers and does not want to be challenged by what they wear. It suits most ages and most occasions, and a boxed set removes the question of presentation entirely. One thing worth saying about giving rose as a present: it is the most worn flower in perfumery and also the easiest to get wrong, and this version errs towards warmth and comfort rather than towards anything green, sharp or old fashioned, which makes it a safer bet than most.
The house dates from 1974 and was started by Hussein Adam Ali, a Yemeni perfumer who settled in the Emirates and claimed the first perfume manufacturing operation there. It is still in the family, run by his sons from Sharjah, and it makes attars and bakhoor alongside sprays.
