Roos & Roos: A Mother-Daughter Olfactory Symphony

Some brands start with a business plan, others with a heartfelt connection. Roos & Roos belongs to the latter. It is a story of two women, two generations, and two very different worlds coming together. Established originally in 2014 under the name "Dear Rose," the brand rebranded to Roos & Roos in 2018. This change was made to clearly assert the founders' identity. The house is led by a dynamic mother-daughter duo: Chantal Roos and Alexandra Roos.

Chantal is a true heavy hitter in the fragrance industry. For decades, she worked behind the scenes creating hits for big fashion houses. If you know YSL's Opium or Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Mâle, you know her work. Roos & Roos marks the first time she placed her own name on a bottle. Her daughter, Alexandra, comes from a different background entirely. She is a musician and composer in the French music scene. She brings a modern, lyrical, and slightly rebellious spirit to the table. This partnership creates a unique balance. It mixes the "Old World" expertise of the mother with the "New World" freedom of the daughter. They view perfume through the lens of music. To them, notes and accords in a scent are like notes in a song. Based in Neuilly-sur-Seine, France, they create scents that celebrate female empowerment and Parisian chic.

The brand categorizes its work into distinct collections, each telling a different story. A standout fragrance that demands attention is Mentha Religiosa. This scent is a critical darling and won a prestigious award from the Fragrance Foundation France in 2017. It is famous for its bold duality. It clashes fresh, cool mint against warm, smoky frankincense and powdery iris. It is an aromatic experience that feels both clean and mysterious.

For those who prefer something rooted in nature and mythology, there is Nymphessence. This scent blends fruity notes of pear and mandarin with a woody base. It captures the feeling of a morning garden filled with fairies. If you love floral scents with a twist, try Couleur Vendôme. It is a tribute to the famous square in Paris. It features a stunning rose note mixed with spicy cardamom and cinnamon. It is elegant but has a sharp, modern edge.

Most of these scents are composed by perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin. He works closely with Chantal to bring these visions to life. Another unique option is Les Larmes de Tiresias. It mixes fig juice with pine and leather for a sensual effect. For a brighter vibe, Woods in Love offers a fresh mix of citrus and violet. Each bottle is designed with clean lines, reflecting the niche luxury status of the brand.

Reading about notes like mint and incense is one thing, but smelling them on your skin is another. High-end niche perfumes like those from Roos & Roos are complex. They change over time. The top notes you smell at first spray will evolve into something different after an hour. Song for a Queen, for example, starts with bergamot but settles into warm vanilla and cashmere wood. You cannot fully appreciate this transformation with a quick sniff in a store.

This is why Parfinity offers a better way to explore. You can build your own Parfinity Box with 2ml samples. This size gives you enough sprays to wear the scent for several days. Test it in the morning, wear it on a date, or see how it feels after a workout. You can add samples of Mentha Religiosa, Couleur Vendôme, and others to your box. Our "Wear First, Love Forever" model removes the risk. The cost of your sample box is credited back to you when you buy a full bottle. It is the smartest way to shop for luxury fragrances. Stop guessing and start testing. Find the Roos & Roos scent that matches your personal melody today.
