Rose Etoile de Hollande

Rose Etoile de Hollande by Mona di Orio is a Floral fragrance for women and men. Rose Etoile de Hollande was launched in 2012. The nose behind this fragrance is Mona di Orio. Top notes are White Peach, Heliotrope and Calabrian bergamot; middle notes are Turkish Rose, Bulgarian Rose, Geranium and Cloves; base notes are Siam Benzoin, Peru Balsam, Madagascar Vanilla, Patchouli, Atlas Cedar and Virginia Cedar. Launched as a salute to Mona di Orio’s life and work as a perfumer, Rose Étoile de Hollande is the culmination of Mona’s study of a special rose that climbed the walls of Maison Sainte Blanche in Cabris, France. And like her other layered and yet legible perfumes, Rose Étoile de Hollande is no ordinary rose: powdery and spicy, with a round, lush white peach note lifted by aldehydes, and sprinkled with clove.Heart notes of warm cedar, earthy patchouli and a sly leather note adds to the scintillating heart while a hint of powdery heliotrope conspire to create an innocent, yet joyously carnal scent.This perfume manages to evoke a rose at once regal, joyous and sensual, its progression from top notes to base notes gathering depth and beauty as it progresses.
