Description
Launched in 2024 as part of Lancôme's ongoing exploration of La Vie est Belle's emotional territory, Rose Extraordinaire pivots the original's iris-patchouli architecture toward a rose-centred identity. Bergamot, orange and fresh green stems provide a dewy, garden-fresh opening.
The heart is a rose triptych: Damascena rose absolute for depth and richness, pure rose for luminosity and rose water for aquatic freshness. Iris provides a powdery, cool counterpoint that keeps the composition from becoming purely floral.
The base of ambroxan, musk, woody notes, sandalwood and moss introduces a dry, subtly woody warmth that grounds the roses without overshadowing them. Wear time is impressive, typically extending six to eight hours with soft-to-moderate sillage.
For wholesale buyers, Rose Extraordinaire benefits from both the strength of the La Vie est Belle sub-brand and the 2024 launch buzz. A natural complement to any Lancôme assortment, particularly in gifting seasons.
