No. 12 by Rose Kazan: An Oriental Rose with Incense, Tobacco and Bakhoor
Rose Kazan Perfumes unveiled No. 12 in 2013 as a men’s and women’s fragrance in the Oriental Woody family. It was composed by the perfumer Abdel Rahman Alnaqbi.
Beginning with rose, the scent reveals a heart of incense, tobacco and bakhoor, before drying down to an incense base. The result is warm, smoky and full of character.
The opening rose in No. 12 is crisp and radiant, lifted by a fresh-spicy shimmer that stops it from feeling heavy. This is a rose with momentum, not a passive floral note.
In the heart, incense and tobacco are joined by bakhoor, a scented wood blend with deep cultural roots in the Arab world. Together they create a dark, resinous centre with a subtle sweetness and a dry texture.
The base returns to incense, now smoother and more rounded. Supporting balsamic, amber and sweet-spicy accords give the drydown a creamy warmth that lingers on the skin without overwhelming the senses.
This is a perfume of contrasts: floral yet resinous, fresh yet smoky. It feels equally suited to contemplative evenings and cold-weather wear, and it rewards those who appreciate complexity in a signature scent.
This one will appeal to devotees of smoky, balsamic orientals, as well as to anyone searching for a rose fragrance with edge. Incense, tobacco and bakhoor lovers are especially well catered for.
No. 12 is an assured, elegant creation with a distinctly bakhoor-led character. If you want a unisex oriental that never fades into the background, this is a bottle worth exploring.
