Rose 31

Le Labo Rose 31, launched in 2006 and composed by Daphné Bugey, is a floral woody musk that redefines rose for collectors who avoid sweetness. The opening pairs rose with cumin, a combination that reads dry, spicy, and slightly animalic rather than petal-soft. Cumin continues into the heart, amplifying the rose's darker facets while adding a warm, skin-like texture. The base anchors with musk, guaiac wood, agarwood (oud), olibanum, and labdanum, creating a smoky, resinous, and woody foundation that lingers for hours. This is not a conventional rose; it is a rose stripped of prettiness, built for those who appreciate spice, wood, and a touch of austerity. It suits wearers who prefer unisex scents with depth and a slightly rugged elegance, ideal for evening or cool weather. Collectors of niche woody florals will find it a distinctive reference point, especially in older batches where the cumin and oud feel more pronounced.

Le Labo Rose 31 於2006年推出，由調香師 Daphné Bugey 創作，屬花香木質麝香調。前調以玫瑰搭配孜然，一開場就係乾爽帶辛香、微動物感嘅玫瑰，唔係甜美花瓣路線。中調孜然持續，令玫瑰嘅暗黑面更突出，同時帶嚟溫暖貼膚嘅質感。基調由麝香、癒創木、沉香、乳香同岩薔薇組成，煙燻、樹脂感重，木質底蘊持久。呢支香適合鍾意香料、木質同微苦優雅嘅用家，中性得嚟有深度，秋冬或夜晚用特別出色。對於追求非傳統玫瑰嘅收藏家，舊版批次嘅孜然同沉香層次更鮮明，值得留意。
