Bitter Rose, Broken Spear
by DS&Durga
4.0|2013|UnisexDS&Durga's Bitter Rose, Broken Spear, launched in 2013 as a UNISEX fragrance, crafts an olfactive narrative inspired by the transition from the Bronze to the Iron Age. This composition presents a distinctive blend where the classic elegance of rose is juxtaposed with rugged, metallic undertones. Key notes include a prominent rose alongside sharp thistle and aromatic thyme, complemented by the warmth of amber and nutmeg. These elements are contrasted with the starkness of hot iron and ember, while cubeb and the woody nuance of larch provide further depth. The resulting scent profile is both dark and strikingly modern, suggesting an armored, almost visceral botanical quality.
