About This Perfume
Rose Poetique by Manos Gerakinis is a fragrance for women and men. Rose Poetique was launched in 2018. The nose behind this fragrance is Jean-Francois Thizon. Top notes are Saffron and Rhubarb; middle notes are Damask Rose, Raspberry, Patchouli and Labdanum; base notes are Cashmere Wood, Sandalwood, Musk and Vanilla. "Rose Poetique is a 2018 edition that took over a year to complete. Manos's previous Rose perfume was regarded as one of the top 5 Rose fragrances in the world. So this was a double challenge, as Manos also wanted this fragrance to bring Joy and Euphoria. He chose the Damask Rose and combined it with labdanum to create a floral oriental scent with an addictive openning and an uplifting body. The Greek poet Sappho said of the Damask Rose, "it is the pride of plants and queen of flowers." Manos believes this fragrance to be a dreamworld of happiness, poetry and music and describes it as Jubilation." - a note from the brand.
