A beautiful rose space filled with bright Turkish rose and fresh breezy woods. This rose elixir comes as an extrait - the higher concentration adds to the reach and volume of the perfume without making it heavy.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
A vivid rose presence for an afternoon that stretches into a close, unhurried conversation. The bright opening keeps the mood alert, while smoky woods give the floral warmth a drier edge: sensual, but without the weight of a plush, sweet rose.
How to wear
Start with one or two sprays on skin, allowing the extrait’s volume to develop before adding more. Mild spring weather and cooler summer hours suit its bright rose and airy woods; in heat, a lighter application should keep the floral presence from becoming too expansive.
Who it’s for
For those who want a clearly defined rose with freshness and woody structure rather than sugary softness. It suits a taste for expressive florals, dry textures and a subtle smoky contrast, especially when a fragrance should feel substantial without becoming heavy.

The nose
Dominique Ropion is known for combining technical precision with expansive, richly textured compositions. His work includes Portrait of a Lady and Carnal Flower for Frédéric Malle, fragrances that reveal his command of floral materials. In Rose Shot, he gives Turkish rose a bright, spacious setting, balancing its fullness with fresh accents and smoky woods.
Collaborators
Photographer Roberto Greco created the floral images that served as the starting point for Rose Shot and its companion fragrances. Founder Céline Verleure worked with Dominique Ropion to translate those photographs into scent, shaping the trilogy’s floral direction and its place within the Sepia collection.
Olfactive Studio’s story
Olfactive Studio brings contemporary photography into the perfume-making process: an image becomes an emotional starting point for a composition, rather than decoration added afterward. Founded by Céline Verleure, the house gives perfumers creative freedom to explore memory, texture and atmosphere through fragrances without gender boundaries.
Rose Shot’s concept
Rose Shot belongs to the second Sepia trilogy, alongside Iris Shot and Violet Shot. Roberto Greco’s photographs preceded the perfumes, inspiring compositions that move from iris roots through violet leaves to rose petals. The project reunited Céline Verleure and Dominique Ropion after their earlier work together on Kenzo Jungle L’Éléphant, and marked a deliberate exploration of florals within the house.
Extra info
The name links the rose subject to the house’s photographic vocabulary. Rose Shot is part of a three-fragrance floral study with Iris Shot and Violet Shot, and its smoky dimension comes from guaiac wood. The Sepia extraits are composed at a stated concentration of 20%.
