A dark and alluring rose fragrance.

Fragrance Notes Deep Dive

Every great fragrance tells a story in three acts, and Lady Vengeance is no exception. The opening salvo presents lavender and bergamot, hitting the skin with immediate impact and establishing the character of what follows. As the top notes settle — typically within the first 20–30 minutes — the heart of Lady Vengeance emerges: bulgarian rose, moroccan rose, patchouli, iso e super and geranium. This is the true signature of the fragrance, the character that those around you will come to recognise. Finally, the base of white musk, ambroxan and vanilla anchors the composition, providing the lasting trail and the memory Lady Vengeance leaves long after you have left the room.

The overall accord profile leans toward rose, musky, making Lady Vengeance a composition that reads with purposeful clarity to anyone paying attention.
