A fragrance that takes us to warmth of a Moroccan evening, the fusion of spices coming from the medina, and the hues of the setting sun over the ocean viewed from the rooftops of Essaouira.
Reassuring and powdery tonalities of Persian wild carrot seed and orris, are embellished by a swirl of nutmeg, angelica root, lavender, and bay. Dusky accents of liquidambar linger on the skin, as soft as silk.
“The Hour of Dusk and Gold, a deeper, darker scent, is based around their cultivation of wild Persian carrot. The challenge is the lead times; for instance, it takes three years of growing and another three of processing to make orris root.”
THE ROBB REPORT
Expertly crafted by our Master Perfumer in Grasse, this fragrance features Persian wild carrot seed grown, harvested and distilled at Keyneston Mill, the home of Parterre. The seeds have a powdery, mildly spicy scent which enhances the subtle oriental character of the fragrance.
At Parterre Fragrances we produce rare perfume defined by the unique natural ingredients that we grow and distil on our botanic, sustainable estate, and expertly crafted by our Master Perfumer in Grasse.
We create these genuinely rare fragrances by working with the natural elements of the environment and the extraordinary world of plants and their botanical properties. Each year a finite number of bottles of perfume are created from each extraction, to offer a true limited edition eau de parfum.

The longevity of a fragrance and the strength of the scent can be greatly effected by how the fragrance is stored over time. To ensure you keep a fragrance at it’s best we recommend a few simple actions.
Keep your fragrance in a cool and dry place, away from direct exposure to light and any source of heat.
Perfume doesn’t like changes in temperature and sunlight, these factors can effect the longevity and purity of the fragrance.
Spray lightly and never touch both wrists together. This action can effect the top and middle scent notes as the friction heats up your skin, it changes the perfume profile and shortens the longevity of the fragrance.
Always take the time to wear a fragrance sample before purchasing, especially if you’ve discovered a perfume from another person. Our chemical body makeup varies, meaning scents will react differently and smell different from one person to the next.
Sensitive skin? You can still have the pleasure of wearing beautiful perfume by lightly spraying your hair, a scarf or a jacket from a distance.
Invest in a 15ml bottle for moments on the go. A fine fragrance is designed to change through the day, but if you want to enjoy those top notes for a bit longer then carry a travel sized bottle so you can top-up.
Using the ceramic pot as your reed diffuser; unscrew the top of the glass refill bottle, and pour the mixture carefully into the ceramic pot. Insert the reeds into the top of your pot. Allow 24 to 48 hours for the scent to fill your room.
You may also use the glass refill bottle as a diffuser by removing the seal and replacing the collar.

The Hour of Dusk and Gold is my scent find of the year. I wear it at all times whether it’s cold or warm, sunny or drab grey skies. Wore it to bed last night and it’s a comfort. But it’s also sensual too. I just love mine so much.

Thankyou for my gorgeous perfume. I have bought this one before, so I knew what to expect. Warm, smooth, sultry notes. Makes me feel like its ‘lazy summer evening’ even if it’s raining outside.
It arrived very quickly, and came in a fabulouse box. Quite a sumptuous experience all round. Thankyou so much
