Whoever says rose scents smell like granny’s closet?

When it comes to the smell of roses, most people tend to get a little ageist about things, relegating it to the realm of granny fragrances. In actual fact, rose-infused scents have quite a complex character that helps to frame the entire profile of a fragrance when it is paired with other scents.

You witness the chameleonic aspect of the flower first-hand in the latest crop of floral perfumes and skincare products that have all been infused with the rose scent. Gone are the delicate and powdery cliches; the selection boasts a more vibrant and uplifting scent rather than being cloyingly sweet. Plus, when paired with skincare, rose-infused products are said to boost moisture levels,

We don’t know about you, but that sounds like a good thing at any age. Here, our top 10 picks to note.

Rose-Infused Skincare And Fragrances Take On A Modern Spin
Tom Ford Rose Prick Eau de Parfum, $690

Unlike your usual floral fragrance, this features surprise elements of Sichuan pepper and turmeric extract that lend a spicy twist when paired with notes of Bulgarian roses and rose de mai. It then settles into a warm, woody scent thanks to Indonesian patchouli, chypre and roasted tonka smolders with addictive notes of caramel and vanilla.

The reinvented formula is now amplified with rose sap, which works together with the micro-nutrients found in the petals of the rose de granville that are obtained through a double extraction process. Together, these aim to repair and regenerate damaged, mature skin types. A new-generation bio-fermentation process is then used to extract the regenerative and restructuring molecules from the stem to obtain rose sap without altering the quality of the reparative molecules.

Dior Beauty
Aerin Amber Musk Holiday Gift Set, $194
image

The holiday set comes with the brand’s iconic oriental, amber fragrance in three sizes (50ml, 7ml, 4ml). The scent features a distinctive amber and creamy musk that is contrasted with a succulent burst of coconut water and the femininity of rose centifolia absolute. It is a warm and inviting scent that is untypical of your usual sweet floral fragrance.

Wishful Get Even Rose Oil, $100, Sephora

Formulated with rosehip and damascus rose oils, this offers a pleasant floral scent that is not too overbearing. The two key ingredients work with 13 other skin loving oils to boost skin’s hydration capacity and imbue a radiant, healthy-looking glow to the complexion. The lightweight texture is also one to note, making it ideal for those with combination and oilier skin types as it quickly melts into the skin.

Sephora
Aesop Rozu Eau De Parfum, $235
image

Inspired by the life, travels, and enthusiasm of legendary French architect and furniture designer Charlotte Perriand, the unisex fragrance is a sophisticated and contemporary take on sweet, floral scents. It is centred around a floral rose note derived from the Wabara garden rose and is combined with vetiver extract, which boasts an earthy scent reminiscent to that of the men’s colognes Perriand used to wear.

Aesop
By Terry Baume De Rose Micellar Water, $75, Escentials
image

Infused with hydrating rosehip oil and pastel rose extracts, this aims to moisturise and nourish dehydrated complexions while removing, dirt, oil and makeup. What else we love: The micelle particles that attract impurities and excess sebum easily for a gentle cleansing effect.

Escentials
Gucci Ambrosia Di Fiori, $235
image

The fresh and elegant combination of Jasmine bud extract, tuberose and rangoon creeper is now enhanced with two additional notes that radiate femininity – orris and damascena rose. Unlike the traditional construction of top, middle, and base notes, the vibrant bouquet opens fully at once to reveal an intense floral fragrance that is not overtly sweet.

Gucci Beauty
Jung Beauty 2 Step Steaming Hair Spa Packshot, $50 for a box five, Ksisters
image

We are all for treatments that mimic the effects of any in-salon hair treatment to achieve softer, smoother and healthier tresses. This features two different steps: the first consists of a self-steaming mask, which releases a pleasant rose fragrance upon application. It also contains hydrolysed keratin, coconut oil and silk amino acids to repair and strengthen damaged – and broken – protein bonds while delivering long-lasting moisture to the hair shafts.

To further amplify the results, a Heat Revival Complex is infused into the formula for a self-steaming effect. The second step – a leave-in keratin essence – is formulated with hydrolysed keratin to treat damaged locks, resulting from the excessive use of heat styling products, chemical treatments and constant exposure to harmful environmental aggressors such as UV rays.

Ksisters
Chloe Atelier Des Fleurs Rosa Damascena Eau de Parfum, $175
image

A fresh, crisp and spontaneous take on the usual rose floral scent, this botanical fragrance is lightly spiced and can be layered on with other scents from the brand’s Des Fleurs series. Pair it with Hibiscus Abelmoschus for a green and fruity scent or opt for Cedrus and Hibiscus Abelmoschus for a slightly woody and musky fragrance.

Sephora
Laura Mercier Balancing Foaming Cleanser, $55, Sephora
image

Saturated with rosa damascena flower oil and rosa gallica flower extracts, this offers a gentle floral scent while infusing the skin with moisture. It lathers into a rich, creamy foam to dissolve surface impurities and is said to be ideal for oilier skin types.
