PRICKLY ROSE

The Tom Ford Rose Prick Alternative: Spiced Petals & Modern Velvet

This is Prickly Rose, our sharp, sophisticated, and unisex floral, inspired by the cutting-edge Tom Ford Rose Prick. This is not a traditional, powdery floral; it is a high-quality fragrance alternative for those who want a rose with a modern, spicy edge.

A similar scent in every way, this long-lasting perfume opens with a jolt of Sichuan Pepper and golden Turmeric, leading to a trio of luxurious roses. It settles into a dark, warm base of patchouli and tonka bean, creating a confident, unforgettable aura.
