Laurie Stern, IPF Certified Natural Perfumer

Bed of Roses is a unique treasure, and I have very few bottles of this first limited edition in stock. An exquisite collector’s gift, this extrait de parfum is packaged in a Verrieres Brosse crystal bottle and tucked into a dupioni silk pouch. The finishing touch is a Victorian scent card that captures the spirit of a time when even the advertisements were little works of art.
 
Extrait de parfums are made in small, hand-crafted batches and include a vintage number.

Bed of Roses

A bed of a thousand roses blooms in this voluptuous bouquet. I started with a selection of nine rare rose materials that included Rose de Mai from Grasse, France; ruh gulab from the Himalayas; and Damask Rose Otto from the Valley of the Roses in Bulgaria.  
I also located Persian and Moroccan roses, Rose Edward, Rose of Bouboniana, rare Musk rose phytol, and an exquisite Rose Alba extraction from Bulgaria.
I hand-blended these luscious and distinct rose scents to form an accord—a harmonious and opulent new rose scent.
I cushioned this sumptuous rose accord with rich, aged Tamil Nadu sandalwood, dark chocolate and rich cognac, and included accents of tuberose, Boronia, orange blossom and green mandarin. I crowned Bed of Roses with a canopy of precious rose leaf absolute, a rare and incomparable material from the history of perfume, seldom made today.

Notes: Rose accord, rose leaf, ylang ylang concrete, dark chocolate, cognac, tuberose, Boronia, orange blossom, green mandarin, sandalwood.
