Perris Monte Carlo ROSE DE MAI Eau de Parfum

A sunrise in Provence, between the Alps and the sea. The fresh night gives way to the day, and it promises to be a wonderful day. Thousands of centifoil roses will feast on it and exude their scent. It's time to to harvest..." - Jean-Claude Ellena

Jean-Claude Ellena cherishes memories of harvesting the May rose in Grasse with his grandmother. He describes the rose's delicate appearance and sweet scent as light, fresh, and seductive. He believes its full sensuality is revealed when paired with musk or patchouli, adding depth and warmth to its fragrance.

"I responded to its provocative character," says Jean-Claude, "with voluptuous and sensual notes. Among the more than 50 types of roses, I chose the May rose because it is not only the most commonly grown in Grasse, but also... also exudes a bright and sunny scent ".

The Rose de Mai, also known as the May rose or centifoil rose, is a highly fragrant and esteemed rose variety cultivated primarily in the Grasse region of France. Renowned for its rich floral aroma with sweet and fresh nuances, it is considered one of the finest and most luxurious rose varieties. The scent of Rose de Mai is complex, with sweet notes complemented by subtle spicy and green undertones. Described as feminine, elegant and romantic, it adds a touch of luxury and sophistication to perfumes.
