‘A wild and intoxicating bouquet’: The Estée Lauder Companies unveils Tom Ford Rose Prick

The Estée Lauder Companies has unveiled Tom Ford Rose Prick, the new female fragrance from Tom Ford. It is now available in major airport and downtown duty free stores worldwide.

Creative Director Tom Ford has described the new female eau de parfum as a “wild bouquet of intoxicating and rare hybrids.” According to the designer, the fragrance was inspired by the floral aromas from his own rose garden.

He said: “Inspired by my own rose garden, Rose Prick is a wild bouquet of intoxicating and rare hybrids, a trilogy of Rose de Mai, Turkish and Bulgarian roses.”

Every rose has its thorn: Tom Ford Beauty balances beauty and danger for the new female fragrance

“The danger of being so close to beauty heightens the seductive power of Rose Prick” — Tom Ford

Tom Ford Rose Prick offers Rose de Mal and Sichuan pepper top notes, Bulgarian Rose heart notes, and Indonesian Patchouli and roasted Tonka bean as its base.

Bulgarian Rose is the rarefied ingredient at the heart of Tom Ford Rose Prick. The floral juice — from one of the most precious rose varieties in the world — requires a million blossoms to create only one kilogramme of rose oil.

The new female fragrance also features a Tolu balsam and skin-gripping musk, which allows the fragrance to last longer on the skin.

The Tom Ford Rose Prick fragrance bottle offers a more feminine version of the original Tom Ford Private Blend flacon. The new 50 ml bottle comes in a matte opaque rose pink finish, capped with a matte black metal inset. Tom Ford Rose Prick is also available in an opulent 250 ml decanter.
