Radical Rose - Eau de Parfum

Radical Rose is an uncompromising interpretation of rose, built around an overdose of Rose Centifolia Absolute organically cultivated by MATIERE PREMIERE in the Grasse region. Rich, luminous, and intensely textured, the fragrance reveals the flower in its most vivid and modern form.

Perfumer Aurélien Guichard works with one of the world’s highest concentrations of Rose Centifolia Absolute, amplifying both its velvety floral richness and its naturally spicy facets. Saffron and Jamaican pepper berries sharpen the composition with radiant warmth, while Indonesian patchouli and cistus labdanum deepen the rose with dark woody undertones. Powerful yet refined, Radical Rose transforms a classic floral note into something bold, sensual, and unforgettable.

ABOUT MATIERE PREMIERE

Matière Première—French for “raw material”—is built on a simple yet radical idea: each fragrance is composed around one central natural ingredient, used in its highest possible concentration. From Paris to Grasse, Founder and Perfumer Aurélien Guichard reveals the purest expression of these raw materials, sculpting their texture, nuance, and radiance into modern, immediately readable compositions.

Excellence is at the core of the house. Ingredients are sourced from the finest ethical and organic producers around the world, and each formula is crafted to deliver exceptional sillage—an emotional signature that lingers long after the moment has passed. The meticulous ageing process, from maturation to maceration, ensures depth, clarity, and unmistakable quality.

Matière Première fragrances contain 85–92% natural ingredients, and are entirely vegan, phthalate-free, and free of colorants.

Uniquely, Aurélien Guichard is the only master perfumer to grow his own ingredients: on his family farm in Grasse, he cultivates thousands of tuberose and centifolia rose plants, illuminating creations such as Radical Rose and French Flower.

Matière Première stands at the intersection of innovation and authenticity—contemporary French perfumery devoted to the beauty of a single, extraordinary raw material.
