The Clone Rouge Veil No. 13 — the character and concept of the fragrance
The Clone Rouge Veil No. 13 is a 2024 unisex fragrance from the American brand The Clone.
The composition is presented in the “Parfum (Extrait)” concentration and is built around an expressive amber-woody profile.
It is a fragrance with a distinctive character, in which a spicy burst gradually develops into a rich, warm and resinous cloud.
Stylistically, Rouge Veil No. 13 combines amber and woody facets, creating an impression that is simultaneously luxurious, deep and modern.
Its mood lies in the contrast between radiant spice, airy white-floral nuances and a dense woody base.
Thanks to its unisex positioning, the fragrance is not tied to a particular gender: on different people, it may unfold in a drier, more resinous, softer or more sensual way.
The fragrance pyramid and development
The opening accord welcomes you with saffron and jasmine.
The spicy, slightly dry facet of saffron lends the composition a precious glow, while jasmine softens the opening with white-floral purity and subtle sensuality.
Together, these notes create a distinctive first impression — bright, rich and highly striking.
In the heart, the fragrance becomes warmer and denser: amberwood reinforces the modern woody-amber volume, while grey amber adds a characteristic salty-musky depth.
As Rouge Veil No. 13 develops, it takes on a rounder and more enveloping character while retaining noticeable intensity.
The final stage is built around cedar and fir balsam.
The cedar accord creates a dry, composed woody framework, while fir balsam brings resinous warmth and a light coniferous nuance.
As a result, the base is long-lasting and rich, leaving behind a dense, expressive trail.
Sillage, longevity and wearability
The sillage of The Clone Rouge Veil No. 13 is described as very strong, so the fragrance is best viewed as a noticeable accessory rather than a barely perceptible background.
It will appeal to those who enjoy a perfume that creates its own space around the wearer and remains noticeable in motion.

Exact dosage recommendations for skin and clothing are not provided in the database, so the safest approach is to apply the fragrance gradually and assess its development after 15–30 minutes.
On skin, it may smell softer and more unified, while fabric can retain the rich amber-woody accord for longer.
