La Closerie des Parfums Exploration Rose: the rose wedded to the spices of the world
The floral line of La Closerie des Parfums
The Exploration Rose is the floral line of La Closerie des Parfums, the French house founded in 2019 by Valérie Madrid. Four creations that take the rose — perfumery's most iconic material — and transform it through a dialogue with spices: nutmeg, cardamom, cinnamon. An approach that reawakens a classic.
The four creations of the Exploration Rose
The Exploration Rose brings together Rose Muscade, Rose Cardamome, Rose Cannelle and Brume Rose — four compositions in which the rose is in turn spiced with nutmeg, scented with cardamom or warmed by cinnamon. Brume Rose offers the airiest interpretation in the collection.
A spiced rose, the French way
The Exploration Rose stands out for its contemporary reinterpretation of a classic. French perfumery has crowned the rose queen of materials, from Guerlain (Nahéma, 1979) to Caron (Or et Noir) and Goutal (Rose Splendide). La Closerie des Parfums takes up the baton with a spiced approach that modernises the gesture without betraying it: the rose remains central, while the spice brings the unique signature.
Who is the Exploration Rose for, and when to wear it?
The Exploration Rose is aimed at lovers of contemporary roses who are looking for a crafted floral free of nostalgia. The creations belong to the Floral, Oriental and Spicy families, and shine all year round. If you enjoy the Exploration Rose, you will also love exploring Rose Omeyyade (in the Collection Noire by Atelier des Ors), Goutal Paris and the Collection Privée by Houbigant — three other rose signatures at Soleil d'Or.
