Not your typical rose — a rock ’n’ roll rose. Bold, modern, and unapologetically confident. “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” It opens with bergamot, lemon and orange, cut through with a hit of spicy nutmeg, before colliding into rose, geranium and violet, grounded by amber and vetiver.

This fragrance, like all from our collection, features a unique ingredient which interacts with your body chemistry to create a scent that is truly your own. Designed to blend seamlessly with other fragrances in the collection or to be worn solo, it is guaranteed to turn heads and have people asking, “What are you wearing?”

Designed to layer

Layer War of the Roses with...

Each 1981 fragrance is designed to evolve alone or layered together. Here are the pairings we love with War of the Roses.

War of the Roses + Midnight

Floral + Dark

War of the Roses + Midnight

War of the Roses becomes darker, deeper and more magnetic when layered with Midnight. The floral spice of rose and amber meets smoky cedar, vetiver and musk for a scent that feels made for the evening.

The perfumer’s notes

War of the Roses already carries warmth and spice through rose, amber and vetiver, but Midnight transforms it entirely after dark. Just one or two sprays adds a smoky sensuality beneath the floral heart, creating a richer, more seductive trail on the skin.

Darker Seductive Nighttime

Add both fragrances in one click.

Start with 4–5 sprays of War of the Roses on the pulse points and skin, then finish with 1–2 sprays of Midnight over the top. Midnight should sit on top of rose rather than overpower it — adding depth, woods and musk as the fragrance develops into the evening.
