Dear Shaded Viewers,
In the imaginative world of Dries Van Noten, the rose is transformed from a familiar symbol of romance into something raw, wild, and deeply intriguing. With the return of two signature fragrances-Rosa Carnivora and Raving Rose-the brand explores the rose’s unexpected facets, offering scents that are anything but conventional.
Rosa Carnivora captures the last breath of autumn’s Centifolia rose, blending its fragile petals with earthy vetiver and patchouli. The result is a perfume that feels both grounded and mysterious, its beauty tinged with thorns. Even the bottle echoes this duality, pairing delicate pink glass with a striking animal-print porcelain base-a nod to Van Noten’s fashion sensibility.
Raving Rose, on the other hand, is a rebellious twist on tradition. Here, the lushness of Damask rose collides with the heat of pepper and warm spices, creating a fragrance that is vibrant, modern, and playfully provocative. Its bottle, a bold contrast of bubblegum pink and chrome red, makes as much of a statement as the scent itself.
Beyond the artistry, Dries Van Noten Beauty is committed to sustainability, using refillable bottles, recycled materials, and formulas rich in natural ingredients. In this collection, luxury and responsibility go hand in hand, redefining what contemporary perfumery can be: a daring conversation between nature and art.
Later,
Diane
