Description
There is a rose that grows in the Horn of Africa — rare, intoxicating, and unlike any other. Somali Rose fragrance Body oil brings that exotic, ancient tradition of rose perfumery into your daily life. Rich, warm, and deeply floral, this oil is a celebration of one of the world’s most cherished flowers.
What Is This Fragrance?
Somali Rose draws inspiration from the unique oud-infused rose perfumery tradition of East Africa and the Arabian Gulf. It blends the freshness of rose with warm, earthy, and slightly smoky base notes for a fragrance that is simultaneously classic and exotic. It is unisex, deeply personal, and exceptionally beautiful.
