Room 1015 HollyRose

Description

Room 1015 HollyRose is what founder "Dr. Mike" calls "a black leather rose" — the first glam-rock rose, equal parts over-the-top femme flower and rough roadie leather. Composed by perfumer Jérôme Epinette and inspired by 1970s rock-groupie culture on Sunset Boulevard, it won acclaim from ÇaFleureBon on release. Expect a prominent, smoky leather and unrefined, "dirty" patchouli opening before blackcurrant and rose oil soften the edges.

Scent Character

• Floral — 33%
• Leathery — 33%
• Spicy — 17%
• Sweet — 17%

Translation: an even floral-leathery split — rose and leather trade the lead throughout the wear, backed by a dry, dusty patchouli base.
