for classic elegance
An African rose captured at that exact moment when the flower exudes its last breath, after which it loses all its petals, reminding us of the importance of ephemeral beauty
The perfume was inspired by Mrs. Gwen Fagan’s book Roses at the Cape of Good Hope and it is blended in beeswax and hand poured into a porcelain container decorated with our shwe-shwe pattern
Notes: Rosa Damascena absolute (Bulgaria), Rosa Centifolia oil (India), Opoponax (Somalia), Hyraceum tincture (South Africa)
