Rose Prick

Rose Prick (2020) is a Tom Ford chypre floral that opens with an unexpected duo: Sichuan pepper and turmeric. The pepper crackles with a dry, almost electric heat, while turmeric adds a rooty, faintly bitter edge. This spicy overture quickly gives way to a heart of three roses—May, Bulgarian, and Turkish—layering petal sweetness with honeyed depth and a jammy richness. The base anchors the florals in patchouli and tonka bean, delivering an earthy, woody, and softly sweet foundation that lingers close to the skin.

Collectors who love rose but want it stripped of frills will appreciate this unisex composition. It suits those who enjoy spicy, earthy fragrances with a prominent patchouli note; the rose is ever-present, but never syrupy. Ideal for cool weather or evening wear, it projects with restraint and wears for hours. If you favour rose chypres like Portrait of a Lady but seek a drier, more peppery take, Rose Prick is a worthy addition to your rotation.

Tom Ford Rose Prick（2020）係一款中性西普花香調，前調以四川花椒同薑黃開場，帶嚟乾燥而微辛嘅刺激感，隨後過渡到由五月玫瑰、保加利亞玫瑰同土耳其玫瑰組成嘅三重玫瑰核心，花香濃郁得嚟帶蜜甜同果醬感。基調用廣藿香同零陵香豆收尾，泥土同木質氣息令玫瑰更立體，留香持久。整體氣質乾脆、溫暖，唔會過分嬌柔，適合鍾意玫瑰但怕甜膩嘅用家。秋冬或夜晚使用最為合適，中性打扮或成熟風格都駕馭得到。如果你鍾意玫瑰西普但想要更乾爽、多啲辛香嘅版本，呢支值得一試。
