Rose Tonnerre pictures a rose in a garden drowned in mist on a stormy night, at the moment its scent is strongest. Edouard Fléchier sets the flower in dialogue with dark, earthy notes, in a contrast the house likens to the meeting of rose and truffle.
The rose asserts itself at once, ample and velvety. Vetiver, patchouli and castoreum then give it an earthy, woody, slightly animalic base. A dark, dramatic rose, for the evening.

Rose Tonnerre in detail
Frédéric Malle publishes its fragrances under the name of their perfumer. Rose Tonnerre, signed by Édouard Fléchier, imagines a rose in a misty garden at night, as the storm approaches: a dark, woody, slightly animalic rose.
The house only publishes the top and base notes. At the top, rose fills the whole space, rich and velvety. In the base, vetiver, patchouli and castoreum, an animalic note with leathery accents, darken it and give it its depth. Volute reads a rosy, woody, slightly leathery accord in it.
Rose Tonnerre is worn in the evening, in autumn and winter: a dinner, a concert, a stormy evening. It will suit anyone who loves deep rather than fresh roses.
Three florals in our catalogue share its rose and patchouli: Lyric Woman by Amouage, which also shares vetiver, in a spicy rose; Melón Malo by Born To Stand Out, fruitier; Elysium Absolue by Roja Parfums, which pairs rose, patchouli and vetiver with exotic fruit.
