Epine de Rose
Epine de Rose by Mizensir is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with mandarin, ginger and oud, moves into rose, pink pepper and black pepper and dries down to cedarwood and incense. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Ginger Warm, zesty and slightly soapy. Bridges citrus and spice.
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
Heart
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Black Pepper Dry and prickly. Gives a fragrance grip and a bit of bite.
Dry-down
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
