Swiss Arabian Rose 01 Concentrated Oil, released in 2024, is the alcohol-free oil edition of the brand's Rose 01 fragrance. It keeps the rose-led character of the original in a more concentrated, skin-close format.

What does Rose 01 smell like?

Pink pepper and bergamot open the oil with a light, slightly spiced citrus freshness. Bulgarian rose, nutmeg and peony form the heart, giving a rich, true-to-rose floral impression with a warm spiced edge from the nutmeg. Cashmere wood, vanilla and musk close the composition, adding a soft, creamy warmth that lets the rose linger rather than fading too quickly.

  • Top notes: Pink Pepper, Bergamot
  • Heart notes: Bulgarian Rose, Nutmeg, Peony
  • Base notes: Cashmere Wood, Vanilla, Musk

Performance and when to wear it

Applied directly to pulse points rather than sprayed, Rose 01 oil is typically moderate to long-lasting on skin, with the cashmere wood and vanilla base helping the rose heart persist for hours. It works well for both daytime and evening wear, suiting anyone who wants a rose fragrance that reads warm rather than purely fresh.

Who is it for?

Rose 01 oil is marketed as a women's fragrance and suits rose lovers who prefer a warmer, spicier take on the note rather than a simple, dewy rose. Its oil format also appeals to anyone who favours concentrated scents over sprays.

Layering Tip

Spray the heavier scent first, then the lighter one on top. Start with two scents — more than three quickly becomes muddled. Always test on skin first.
