1970, from Bella Freud was released in 2014. The perfumer behind this creation is Azzi Glasser. The notes are Benzoin, Incense, Musk, Myrrh, Oakmoss, Patchouli, Rose, Saffron, Sandalwood, Vetiver.
I really enjoy this perfume, it's a rose fragrance not really for rose fans. This is for people who like the harsh, opening stinging the nose with opulent saffron but rapidly becoming a darker shade, full of incense and sandalwood. The rose grows gently in the background and the whole thing settles to something not dissimilar to Penhaligon's Levanthium, a really spicy rose affair. I love the stuff but it's not got the performance or complex power of levanthium, nor does it have the rose sweetness, it's like a subdued version but very nice nonetheless.
