They say it's the pillar of the world. Others whisper that it gives life. Hope has always been there, in the heart of humanity. As the third masterpiece in Dominique Ropion's Desert Gems collection, HOPE is an amber and woody fragrance that highlights the absolute nobility of an exceptional oud essence. The smoky and leathery notes of incense and vetiver blend with the spicy freshness of pink pepper, cypress, and juniper to reveal the oud in all its purity. A perfume of incomparable elegance.

I've tried a fair few luxury bath sets, but this one is in another league. The body wash isn't just a scented gel; its fragrance is rich and true to the perfume, creating a base that makes the scent last all day. Truly exceptional

I've tried many rose fragrances, but this one is truly exceptional. The depth and complexity of the Turkish rose combined with the incense and sandalwood is intoxicating. It lasts all day and I constantly receive compliments. Other rose perfumes just smell generic in comparison.

The service from Beauty the shop was very good and i was happy . The fragrance was out of stock in Australia so was delighted to find onsite. The only negative was the tax which made the frag equal in price to other sites

Olfactory Notes
Ingredients
Floral Chypre notes An exceptional fragrance by Dominique Ropion, PORTRAIT OF A LADY enhances the opulence and voluptuousness of the Turkish rose in extravagant proportions.
With PORTRAIT OF A LADY, Frédéric Malle and perfumer Dominique Ropion mark a new stage in the great timeline of perfumery. With this immoderate rose, magnified by woody tones, amber and incense, the designers are redrawing the contours of the cypress, an olfactory family synonymous with the finest eras of 20th-century perfumery. Their play of light and shadow, their elegance and extreme refinement. From this expert craftsmanship, there emerges a splendour created to outlast time.

Top Note: A burst of rich, dark rose immediately takes center stage, its velvety petals unfolding with an intoxicating sweetness. Hints of sparkling raspberry add a touch of fruity vibrancy, while aromatic spices like clove and cinnamon provide a warm, inviting welcome.
Heart Note: The opulent Turkish rose continues to reign supreme, its depth and complexity enhanced by the earthy, woody aroma of patchouli. A resinous sweetness emerges from benzoin and sandalwood, creating a luxurious, almost balsamic accord. Subtle nuances of black currant add a touch of dark fruitiness.
Base Note: The lingering warmth of incense creates a mystical, almost spiritual aura, intertwining with the persistent patchouli and sandalwood. A touch of musk adds a sensual, skin-like quality, while amber provides a rich, golden glow that lasts for hours. The dry down is a harmonious blend of woody, resinous, and subtly sweet notes, leaving an unforgettable impression.
