Torn
Torn by Henry Rose is an unisex eau de parfum in the premium price tier. It opens with freesia and lily of the valley, moves into rose, violet and jasmine and dries down to sandalwood, musk, patchouli, vanilla and praline. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Freesia Crisp, slightly peppery floral. Clean and a bit synthetic in a good way.
- Lily of the Valley Clean, green, dewy floral. Reads as 'fresh laundry' to most people.
Heart
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Violet Powdery, sweet and a bit retro. Parma Violets in flower form.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Praline Caramelised nuts. Sweet, toasty and very moreish.
