26 Isparta by Pierre Guillaume Paris

"The province of Isparta in Turkey is famed for its rose oil, obtained from a variety called "Isparta Summer Roses", which grows profusely in gardens and terraced fields on the soft mountain slopes. The roses are picked early in the morning when they are half-open and their fragrance is the strongest... intense, rich, slightly spicy." Behind wisps of burning resins, Isparta hides a woody rose embraced by a velvety animalic accord of red fruit, benzoin, calamus, and ambroxan.
