What Does Portrait of a Lady Smell Like?

Portrait of a Lady is a luxurious symphony of rich rose, warm spices, and deep woods. The fragrance opens with a striking burst of Turkish rose, enveloped in spicy accords of clove and cinnamon. As it develops, the heart reveals an intoxicating blend of blackcurrant and raspberry, adding a touch of fruity sweetness. The base is where the magic truly unfolds—layers of patchouli, sandalwood, frankincense, and musk create an intense, long-lasting warmth with a smoky and slightly resinous finish. This is a scent that commands attention, leaving an unforgettable trail of elegance.

Top notes: Rose, Clove, Raspberry, Blackcurrant, Cinnamon, Red Berries
Heart notes: Patchouli, Incense, Sandalwood, Ylang-Ylang, Turkish Rose
Base notes: Musk, Benzoin, Incense, Amber, Cedar, Vanilla, Ambergris

It is an olfactory portrait of a lady who is bold yet delicate, modern yet timeless.

  3. weslefhweos (verified owner)

    spicy warm rose, everyone can wear, I love both portrait of lady and rose tonnerre (used to be une rose) from the brand, one dry, the other fresh, must-have rose scent I recommended. Another rose I really like is white rose from Jo malone, but disappear too quickly like in 30min….

  4. to_jacob (verified owner)

    Wonderful scent, great longevity and projection on my skin, Masterpiece!

  5. Bo Wu (verified owner)

    Just amazing, one of the top rose fragances ever created. A bottle filled with rose, patchouli, musk & clove. It is so complex but strong & powerful at the same time. The top and basic notes are flowery, spicy and incense, drydown is a nicely rounded powdery-feeling. A true beauty and a well-deserved masterpiece.

    A beautiful, ‘je me sais quoi’ sent. Not too heavy and yet not boring. Best price on Beautinow.

  10. d.cristina87 (verified owner)

    Una splendida rosa, classica, ma non nei miei gusti. La avverto più come una fragranza che si adatta di più alle pelli maschili.

  11. cesar.pietro (verified owner)

    Best rose fragrance ever made. This is a Dominique Ropion masterpiece that I will have with me for life. Unique elegant and sophisticated parfum.
