TAUER PHI Une Rose de Kandahar Eau De Parfum (EdP) 50ml

The PHI Une Rose de Kandahar is part of Andy Tauer's Collectibles line, which consists of fragrances made in small batches from rare and unique materials that are not always readily available. This means that access to these extraordinary creations can vary, as they are only available when the necessary high-quality ingredients are on the market.

Une Rose de Kandahar is built around a luxury-quality rose extract sourced from the Kandahar region of Afghanistan, specifically from Nangarhar. The rose oil produced in this dry and rugged land is incredibly rare and considered a gem in the world of perfumery.

The fragrance opens with the sunny, opulent fruity aroma of natural apricot extract, enhanced by the sparkling bergamot and warming cinnamon. The velvety softness of the apricot is beautifully complemented by the soft tones of bitter almond, leading us to the heart of the fragrance, where a passionately pulsing rose is crowned by shimmering spices. The extraordinarily rare Afghan rose oil intertwines with the unique aromas of spices, plum, and flower petals, combined with Bulgarian rose absolute and hints of geranium.

Silken, lush rose petals melt onto a rich, fruity base of apricot, layered over a woody, almost leather-like animalic dried tobacco leaf, setting the stage for the generously dosed patchouli. At the base, the woody vetiver is harmonized with the indulgent notes of vanilla and tonka bean, merging with the animalic aspects of musk and amber, enveloping the rose bouquet that serves as the soul of the perfume, while lending richness and brilliance to this exclusive olfactory masterpiece.
