Metal Flower
Metal Flower Yin opens with aldehydes and rose oxide, the combination giving the composition a sharp, almost metallic brightness before orange blossom softens the accord. The rose heart is layered: Rose de Mai and Bulgarian rose together, ylang-ylang adding a creamy-tropical facet that the aldehyde opening would not predict. The Yin designation holds here, the composition progressing from sharp metallic clarity toward something warmer and more feminine. Patchouli in the base grounds the rose without darkening it, white musk giving the drydown an airy softness.
Why We Carry This
The two-rose construction in Metal Flower Yin is the technical achievement worth noting: Rose de Mai and Bulgarian rose have different characters, and using both alongside rose oxide gives the floral heart a three-dimensional quality that single-source rose compositions cannot match. The Yin-Metal element reads authentically in the formula.
