Mugwort Rose

1 perfumes

Mugwort Rose is a sophisticated botanical hybrid that marries the herbaceous, slightly bitter, and camphoraceous bite of Artemisia with the velvety, deep-red sweetness of damask rose. Belonging to the aromatic-floral family, this note offers a cooling, medicinal edge that cuts through the density of traditional heavy compositions. It pairs naturally with saffron and dry woods, creating a balanced tension between sharp green aromatics and opulent floral warmth. In the Gulf, this note is particularly effective during the transitional seasons and cooler evenings, where its crisp, herbal profile provides a refreshing contrast to the heat. Arab perfumers often utilize Mugwort Rose to modernize classic mukhallats, adding a sophisticated, structured complexity that prevents the rose from becoming overly cloying or powdery in high-humidity environments.
