Columbia Rose by Angela Flanders

To celebrate the 30 years since she took on a small shop in the heart of the East End, on the now famous Columbia Road Flower Market, perfumer Angela Flanders has developed a new scent:

A rich, dark and slightly dangerous rose reminiscent of the old East End she remembers so well.

The story begins with Moroccan Rose, created in the first decade of Flanders' journey as a perfumer, for her daughter Kate, a gift from Mother to Daughter. A dark, red rose resting on an exotic base of Ambrette, Sandalwood and Iris.

The story unfolds with Rose Poudrée created during her second decade at No 96. An homage to the old-fashioned Centifolia Rose, and a personal favourite. A blend of Rose and Violet resting on a base of powdery Musk, Vanilla, Iris and Heliotrope.

The story comes full circle with Columbia Rose, a new perfume created especially to celebrate three fragrant decades at Columbia Road. Columbia Rose is a rich, velvety Rose lifted by a touch of Violet, deepened by Sandalwood and Amber, resting on a shadowy base of aged Patchouli.
