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.

Olfactory Notes
Ingredients
Emblematic of Middle Eastern culture, oud is a natural treasure. A "black gold" with a deep, faceted scent that fascinates master perfumer Dominique Ropion. With PROMISE, he recreates all of its nobility with cypriol, a plant native to India, accompanied by precious essences of Turkish and Bulgarian roses. An olfactory celebration of the strongest bonds that can join two people, this scent induces an irrepressible appeal that connoisseurs of fragrance would be able to recognise from a crowd of a thousand.

Top Notes: The initial impression of Promise is likely a rich, spicy, and slightly earthy aroma. While not explicitly listed, the opening could feature hints of pink pepper or saffron to complement the rose notes and create a vibrant introduction.
Heart Notes: The core of Promise revolves around a majestic blend of rose. The description mentions Turkish rose and Bulgarian rose, suggesting a multifaceted rose accord, combining the sweet, jammy facets of Turkish rose with the lighter, greener nuances of Bulgarian rose. Cypriol, with its woody, smoky, and slightly leathery character, intertwines with the rose, adding depth and complexity.
Base Notes: The long-lasting impression of Promise is built on the illusion of oud. While oud itself isn't listed as an ingredient, the perfumer has masterfully recreated its profile using other materials. This base likely includes woody notes, amber, and potentially patchouli or sandalwood to create a warm, resinous, and enduring dry down, evoking the rich, complex, and captivating essence of oud.
