Description Bengale Rouge is inspired by Liz Moore's beloved Bengale cat Mimi. The scent captures the comforting smell of warm, sun-lit fur accompanied by sandalwood and honey. Bengale Rouge is a unique blend of bold animalic notes, softened and warmed up by its more gourmand notes (tonka bean, vanilla, and turkish rose) alluding to a domesticated feline beauty; more refined and fierce than feral.

Owen ★★★★★

The oakmoss and labdanum give this a vintage chypre feel that I wasn't expecting from a rose scent, and it lasts a solid eight hours on my skin. The Turkish rose stays present the whole time without turning soapy.

Nicholas T. ★★★★★

The honey and tonka in this are so rich without turning syrupy, and the oakmoss keeps it grounded. I wore it to a dinner party and two people asked what I had on. Easily the most complex rose I've tried.
