Blonde Rose

I've started going through my honestly massive backlog of fragrances (thanks pandemic era hyper fixation!) and I grabbed this one on a whim and ended up ADORING it. Its cozy but doesn't scream 'wear in cold weather', unique but familiar, sophisticated but not too 'mature'. I can't wait to spend more time with it and get to know it even better. My only real complaint is that I feel like, on me at least, it doesn't have much lasting power. I also wish the company wouldn't use outdated terminology in their marketing.

I really like this. I was surprised that few people commented on the smoke smell. Most perfumes that people say smell like cigarettes just honestly don’t. But this? Cigarettes, soap, and roses. I absolutely adore it! The kind of smell that I can’t stop sniffing where I sprayed it because I enjoy it so much. Also reminds me of staying in moderately upscale chain hotels (a smell I am chasing always)

Ummmm, this is a beautiful freshie! I don't understand the reviews but fragrance is subjective. To me, this is a beautfiul feminine, clean girl scent. I don't see in what world that this is masculine leaning. It's clean, floral, and super pretty smelling. The value is unbelievable too. I paid $50 for a 100ml. This is an everyday easy grab. I adore it! Lasts all day on me too. 4.5/5.

I am surprised with all the negative reviews! I absolutely love it. Someone mentioned baby oil....yes there is that element in it. It smells powdery and fresh and clean with some hint of smoke (not cigarette smoke, more like campfire) and florals. It reminds me of my childhood, not sure why, something in this scent has triggered an emotional note!

I absolutely love Blonde Rose. It's a very pretty, clear, tender, scent. I get some roses from the get go and a delicate musky drydown. It lasts for hours, but always stays close. It's my go-to feel-good perfume. About the whole baby oil vibe: yeah, that's the best part for me!

Very clean scent with a backing of rose. Love to wear this when I don't feel like doing much to my appearance and still want to smell nice. Doesn't permeate the whole room, but is noticeable if you are next to the person. Overall good everyday perfume.

This perfume smells musky and peppery with just a hint of rose. It has amazing lasting power and is uniquely feminine!

Something in this fragrance gave me a huge allergic reaction. When sprayed in the neck, it made my skin very dry and itchy. The next day I sprayed it on my hair, careful to avoid my scalp, thinking that way I would react less to it. The result: runny nose, itchy scalp and face and breakouts on my face. Obviously, not my smartest idea. Too bad, because it's a pretty nice scent. Nothing special, but pretty good as an everyday scent. Floral and musky, and maybe a bit too masculine for my liking, but the woods had an interesting effect: they gave it a nice hint of cigarettes. Not tobacco, but the lingering smell of a cigarette you've smoked an hour ago. Something I've always had a weak spot for, both on men and women. It transported me to my early twenties, when most of the time I smelled of The BS White Musk and cigarettes. So yeah, nostalgia and allergies. Not the best of combinations. If someone in NL is looking to buy this, I have a full bottle for sale :)

Well I don't see Leather listed as a note, but I do see musk. I say this because my first impression after two sprays and 10 minutes is..... a more pedestrian Tom Ford White Suede. I don't really get rose that much at all, and it has less of that "laundry" note than White Suede, but honestly if you like WS there is no reason to bother with this one. And if you DON'T like WS, well there's even more reason not to bother lol! Clean has some winners, but I wouldn't necessarily say this is one of them. It doesn't really evoke anything specific or fun or intriguing.

Definitely unisex - way more masculin than feminin IMO. Blonde roses? Not many roses on my skin, just a lot of sandalwood and soap. Not at all unpleasant, but a disappointment if you wanted some fresh, sweet roses in the blend. And I did. Very clean, dry and woody. Nice perfume, but not at all what I expected or wanted. Won't use it again, it triggered my migraine.

I am really picky about aldehydic laundry scents (I declutterred MFK 724) but I find this one entirely inoffensive, feminine, and soft. It’s not the most special thing in the world but it does evoke a Cicely Mary Barker flower fairy doing laundry. Layers nicely with Nest Wisteria Blue for a bit more flower dew or Ellis Brooklyn Salt for a bit more sandalwood.

This is not a heavy, sensual, sexy rose. It's a light scent, a bit of rose, a bit of "makeup" or "soap" smell. Mostly it's just clean and pleasant and lightly floral. I can wear it to work without gassing people out or coming on strong. It's probably not going to win any awards but I enjoy it.

The sting of the nose is for sure there. But calms down to a soft fresh blonde scent with roses hinting. For the price it’s a good buy in a smaller size until you find out how your skin handles it. Honestly it’s a spring and fall frag. Unique.

oh you gotta wait for the drydown! upon initial spray this does smell like greens and leans masculine but the drydown smells sooo good. it reminds me of gap grass

I use these to make my own blends. Love mixing this with the Sueded Oud, the Sel Santal or Jennifer Lopez Still.

Pleasant, light floral scent. I can't imagine this bothering or offending anyone.

To my nose this is very woody. It initially smelled masculine and a bit like an old wardrobe. I kept smelling sandalwood until I kind of sunk my nose into the spot I sprayed the perfume on in the morning and I was surprised - smells like flowers and it's rather sweet! It does smell like baby oil - it's soft and clean, here I can sense the rose and jasmine. It had been developing for 10 hours at this point. Its longevity is outstanding! It sits very close to the skin though, I showed it to my colleague but she has to get very close to the spot I sprayed to feel it. She said she found it floral and clean, she really liked it. Try this on a cold day - I think it flourishes when it's windy and chill. It would probably work well in rainy weather too because the wood makes it feel cozy.

This is very soapy and clean, but very strong on me. It gives me 'old lady' meets 'cologne' but I mean that in a good way. The florals come through but the rose doesn't stand out to me. It's very feminine and sexy to me. I honestly want to like this more than I do because I think it's interesting, but most of the time it triggers a minor headache for me so I may end up needing to sell my bottle.

Not what I'd call a "rose" scent! Definitely more of a musky/masculine fragrance, almost a dead ringer for CHI hair products (Silk infusion, specifically! Hahaha). I think this is very cozy to wear, I do love it!

Woods and musk and woods and soap and woods. Maaaaybe a touch of rose in there. Stings the nose.
