Country: France
Perfumer: Marie Salamagne

Villa Primerose pays tribute to this «savoir-faire» of exception and reinterprets this Rose-Leather duo making this contrast of scents a creative line that enhances both. In this opposition of notes a singular duality is created, between delicacy and power, masculine and feminine, past and futur. A play on materials where the rose will no longer be there to hide but to reveal the leather. A voluptuous, petal-pink Centifolia rose, just picked, contrasted by the elegance and character of woody leather with velvety, suede notes. A reinvented rose leather...

From the very first moment, a light, airy fragrance of rose and pink pepper unfolds. While this combination is often seen in other scents, the pink pepper here is far more prominent than one might expect; cardamom boosts its freshness, adding a sense of depth and dimension. On the skin, the pink pepper seems to capture movement, evoking the image of rose petals fluttering in the air. This sensation of pink pepper is heightened by the leather lurking in the base notes. By layering with this edgy leather, the fragrance transcends the merely glamorous or lovely rose, taking on a cool, sophisticated air. Yet, this cool, pink-pepper-kissed rose gradually reveals a sweet, mellow quality. The addition of a subtle pear note lends a rich, rounded softness to the composition. Notes of iris and ambrette gradually introduce a delicate, understated elegance. The inclusion of pear gives it a sweet impression on the skin, while the pink pepper continues to dance and animate the scent, like swirling rose petals. It ultimately guides the fragrance toward a graceful, glamorous, and elegant rose profile. The leather, subtly present amidst the rose's glamour, adds a touch of sophisticated, mature strength. Paying homage to the origins of perfumery—the tradition of "scented leather gloves" (*gants parfumés*)—the leather here serves not to conceal the lovely rose, but to beautifully accentuate it.
