FRAGRANCE NOTES
DESCRIPTION
The quintessential Oud Rose perfume— where vintage florals and aged Oud converge in a perfume that feels both ceremonial and deeply intimate.
It opens with a wonderful Rose de Mai, aged and full-bodied, the oil settled and darkened by time. A subtle hint of SQ Taifi rose lends a quiet radiance, while tuberose breathes a narcotic creaminess beneath the surface. The floral heart is softened and refined by iris, lending a powdered elegance that blurs the line between petal and skin.
As the composition deepens, a zero-soak Assam oud emerges — pure, unpolished, and honeyed. This oud does not overpower; instead, it weaves itself through the florals, adding gravity and restraint. Accents of grapefruit flicker briefly, introducing a restrained brightness that lifts the composition before dissolving into warmth.
The base reveals its true soul: a profound union of vintage Burmese oud and Laotian oud, rich with resin and shadow. Cypriol and labdanum add smoky earth and balsamic depth, while vanilla and honey extract soften the edges with a slow, golden sweetness. In the final hours, ambergris tincture and castoreum settle close to the skin, leaving a sensual, animalic whisper — intimate, persistent, and unforgettable.
Agar | Rose is not a simple pairing of oud and rose. It is a fragrance of patience, reverence, and quiet power, created for those who understand that true luxury is never loud.

“Essential Assam’s warm hay, worn leather, and honeyed barn warmth beautifully amplify Agar Rose’s Assam Oud and vintage Burmese Oud, creating a harmonious blend of aged richness and soft animalic depth. The interplay of Agar Rose’s aged Rose de Mai with Essential Assam’s golden florals weaves a luxurious tapestry of delicate sweetness and resinous earthiness.”
“Shah Jahan Supreme’s wild agarwood and forest honey create a lush counterpart to Agar Rose’s vintage Burmese and Laotian Ouds, enriching the base with warm, mellow oud and dried apricot sweetness. The neroli and honeyed tones in Shah Jahan Supreme echo Agar Rose’s tuberose and vanilla heart, crafting an opulent floral-oud symphony.”

The Story
The Craft Behind the Fragrance
Agar Rose unfolds around a vintage Rose de Mai oil darkened and deepened by time. A delicate touch of SQ Taifi rose adds subtle radiance while tuberose imbues the heart with a creamy narcotic veil. Iris softens the floral core with a powdered refinement that melds petal and skin.
At the base, zero-soak Assam oud surfaces in its pure unpolished honeyed form, threading through the florals with measured gravity. Grapefruit offers a fleeting brightness before yielding to the warmth of vintage Burmese and Laotian ouds rich with resin and shadow. Cypriol and labdanum bring smoky earthiness while vanilla and honey extract provide a slow golden sweetness.
The final moments are defined by ambergris tincture and castoreum lingering near the skin in a sensual animalic whisper. Agar Rose is a meditation on patience and quiet power, a refined dialogue between oud and rose for those attuned to true luxury’s restraint.

The Layering Ritual
Wear Them Together
The ancient Middle Eastern tradition of fragrance layering — two scents, one signature.
Why They Work Together
Essential Assam’s warm hay, worn leather, and honeyed barn warmth beautifully amplify Agar Rose’s Assam Oud and vintage Burmese Oud, creating a harmonious blend of aged richness and soft animalic depth. The interplay of Agar Rose’s aged Rose de Mai with Essential Assam’s golden florals weaves a luxurious tapestry of delicate sweetness and resinous earthiness.
How to Layer
Apply the Oud Oil to pulse points first. Allow it to settle for 5 minutes, then layer the fragrance over the top for a bespoke signature.
