Rosabotanica

Parfumour’s Interpretation of Balenciaga Rosabotanica

Rosabotanica was Balenciaga’s sun-warmed fruity rose flanker to Florabotanica before it was discontinued, and our version brings it back as a long-lasting eau de parfum.

The Story Behind the Scent

Released in 2013 as a flanker to the cult Florabotanica, Balenciaga Rosabotanica softened the unconventional botanical concept by adding warm fruit and bright citrus while keeping the same rose, cardamom and cedarwood spine, a sun-warmed fruity rose. It has since been discontinued.

Our interpretation brings it back, rebuilt at 40 percent perfume oil so the fruity opening, the spicy rose heart and the warm woody base last far longer than the original.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

The original has been discontinued and is hard to find. We rebuild the same fruity spicy rose character as an eau de parfum and sell direct, so you can wear it again without paying resale prices.

Who It’s For

It suits anyone who loves a fruity spicy rose scent.

Notes

How it Smells

It opens fresh and fruity, with grapefruit, bergamot and fig.

Common Questions

How close is it to Balenciaga Rosabotanica?

Very close. We rebuild the same fruity spicy rose around grapefruit, fig, rose and cardamom, bringing back the discontinued Balenciaga favourite as a long-lasting eau de parfum.

Is the original still available?

The original has been discontinued and is now hard to find, or only sold at high prices by resellers. Our version brings the same style back so you can wear it again without hunting for a bottle.

Is this the same perfume as Balenciaga Rosabotanica?

No. We do not use the same formula or ingredients. It is an independent interpretation made to evoke the same style, created because the original is no longer easy to buy.

How long does it last?

You can expect several hours on skin. Spraying onto clothing as well as skin helps it last even longer.

Who is it best for?

It is made for anyone who loves a fruity, spicy rose for everyday wear and daytime.

How should I apply it?

Spray on pulse points such as the wrists, neck and inner elbows. A light spritz on clothing makes it last through the day.
