Rose Magnetic

On Essential parfums: Every now and again a brand comes along that really hits on every level. Essential parfums is one those brands. Superb perfumes, nothing superfluous or irrelevant in the lineup, a nice number of releases, Frederic Malle style focus on perfumers (all of which are fantastic master perfumers) with their name (and picture) pride of place on the bottle and marketing materials. A commitment to sustainability, in terms of perfume materials and packaging, transparency about natural naturals used and their source, and the really important thing to most consumers an pledge to keep prices affordably low without sacrificing quality. So a brand that truly adds value and brings a lot to the table. I have huge admiration and respect for them and they should be applauded for the whole concept of the brand. Rose Magnetic Gorgeous!!! Lovely, mellow, not overly sweet rose. There's been some really lovely roses along the lines of this recently, beautifully supported, natural smelling roses. Velvet rose, propped up in all the right places by musks and warmth and lovely complementary top notes, like pink pepper or here there's Litchi listed in the notes. I'll buy it! Kinda fresh top, sure litchi okay. cool. I mean why would you bother with a screeching JAM, from Montale or a cheapo, crude PEA & rose crystal affair for a more money from a 'niche' brand? So good for the money and another example of a lovely rose accord which probably only uses a tiny amount of rose absolute but gets a hell of a lot out of it, with careful balance, Bravo Sophie Labbe. Comes highly recommended.

There are so many rose dominant perfumes out there. Given that my name is Rose, I've always liked the idea of finding a signature rose perfume! Mostly though I don't love them as much as hoped. I find the lighter roses a bit thin or metallic, the heavier ones somehow don't smell like actual rose so much. I mean perfumes are always like that - you don't get the experience of the warm sun, or dew, scent of earth and the look and feel of roses and the whole context. Rose Magnetic is quite close, but there's a mucky synthetic in there. Maybe @koxayous (comment below) has correctly spotted in in the lychee note? Most of us are sick of synthetics. Not the tried and tested ones that have remained and survived, in small doses, over the years (Aldehyde if sparingly used, hedione, salicylates and others). Maybe hedione in this perfume might have lifted it, maybe a tiny touch of 'sugar' if you wanted the Turkish Delight vibe? As they go though, this is nice among the available rose perfumes. My hunt for a signature rose continues ...

Essential Parfums Rose Magnetic is a pleasantly bright, tart, and semi-sweet rose with a varied supporting note cast of grapefruit, lychee, tonka, vanilla, peppermint, and musk, really one of the more splendid and somewhat unique fresh rose experiences I’ve had in recent years, and I find it very easily wearable while being striking and interesting. Really outstanding stuff, with the notes fitting together despite being frankly quite a bit odd as a group. Also, it performs fairly well, by no means a letdown, but it’s the scent itself that’s the standout. Like the rest of the line, Rose Magnetic is EDP concentration and priced at $96 for 100ml, very reasonable in the current market. It’s sold in the US via the house site and boutiques like Ministry of Scent, from which I bought my discovery set that contains the majority of the house’s catalogue. 8 out of 10

Rose Magnetic Essential Parfums - a nice simple take on the on the rose note yet not a boring one. Turkish rose is the main note of this perfume but the true highlight is the combination of citrus/litchi and mint; giving this perfume a very refreshing and summer vibe. The perfume is very well blended, all the notes mix together seamlessly, giving a general wholesome feeling and non-offensive yet still unique. Easily one of the best rose scent for summer. For me, this one is very unisex due to its combination. The citrus and mint notes provides fresh and masculine elements for the male audience while the sweetness from vanilla plays really well with the rose scent to appeal for women. Funny enough, after around 30min, it settles down to a very gender-neutral classy scent. - worth getting!

Imagine you're having brunch on a summer day in Amalfi, you're in a garden full of lemon trees and there are fragrant rose bouquets on the table. You're sipping on champagne while spreading rose jam on your pastries with a side of fresh lychees. In other words: a delicious, sparkling, zesty sweet and fresh blend of a citrusy jammy rose! The only downside is it's performance, the projection isn't really the best. It becomes a skin scent after about 2 hours, which could be interesting so it's still worth purchasing imo. Especially during the hot summer days, since intense fragrances can be cloying in the heat, a skin scent like this is perfect in that case. A solid 8,5/10 from me!

Oh this is such a beautiful shy rose!! So beautifully blended (Sophie Labbé, you are a Rockstar 😍🤩)!! To me, this is a very intimate rose, something I’d wear to lure my lover in bed for some serious between the sheets games. It has a very aphrodisiac power to it. It is not a flower bomb at all, it’s just that to me, this smells very alluring and sexy but in a quiet and intimate way. I also wanted to mention that for the price ($75 for a 100ml Bottle on Luckyscent), this is definitely a great buy. I blind bought this reading reviews and watching different YouTubers and I must say this was a success. I will probably get a backup bottle of this too because it’s that good!!!🌹🌹🌹

I have so many rose frags, but this one is special, sparkling, light and crisp, suited for spring/summer wear. It's lemon-drenched rose petals, sweet, bright and green. I don't know why, but it reminds me of southern sweet iced tea, right after you squeeze a lemon wedge over the rim. I do find the listed notes a bit odd. To my nose, this is lemon, rose, sugar cube and tea. Projection is low. I find the 3 bottles I have from EP to all be short-lived on my skin (4 hours or less). One note--I dislike soapy frags and this is not soapy on my skin. There are no white florals or lily-of-the-valley here. Maybe some reviewers just associate rose with soap?

Rose Magnetic is a rose that breathes confidence and softness. I picture it worn with an impeccably ironed white shirt, freshly out of the wash, under a bright sun at 23°C. It evokes a walk through a rose field, every sparkling and luminous note gently caressing the skin. Soft and sensual, it asserts a quiet masculinity: strength lies in subtlety, not in raw power. It is a fragrance that attracts without ever imposing, provokes through its delicacy and leaves a mark through its originality. A rare olfactive signature, at once elegant and confident, that few would dare to wear.

Reminds me so much of Coveted Duchess Rose from Penhaligons..but more sweet and citrus at the top. This is a beautiful pink rose wrapped in soft sweet citrus cloud... it is so nice. I love to wear this to bed or if i am just lounging in the house. this is not a beast mode fragrance that will fill up a room, but a cozy intimate skin scent. If you want an alternative to CDR, you can try this one. CDR is a colder muskier scent whereas RM is warm and cozier... I love them both! but if i have to repurchase, I would definitely go with RM as the price tag is wayyy cheaper (78US)

Rose Magnetic opens with a zing of grapefruit and mint with rose in the background. About 10 minutes in the rose opens up as if the sun has coaxed it from bud to fully opened flower. This is a beautiful rose perfume. I love the opening - it's a surprise and delight! To me, the litchi enhances the rose to fully come out, and I adore the dry down of Tonka and cedar. It's a great combination for a base imho. As rose perfumes go, I have only ever loved Delire d' Rose by Caron and Rose de Grasse by Aerin Lauder. This is worthy of being in a top 5 for any rose lover for sure.

I have many favorite rose perfumes, more than one for all seasons... I like them all as long as they are quality because nothing is worse than fake or cheap rose perfume! Rose Magnetic is tied for my go-to rose with Rose Scheherazade . They’re very similar so I can’t decide which I prefer. When I feel like it’s a rose day. I just reach my hand for one of them in whichever I grab is the one I wear. They kept in a special place with my other favorites for easy choosing. You really cannot go wrong with this if you like a pretty, vintage style rose, perfume!

I believe Amouage's Guidance 46, launched in 2024, is strikingly similar to master perfumer Sophie Labbé's Rose Magnetic, released in 2018. Amouage here seems to have mastered imitation. Sophie, now the chief perfumer at Firmenich, continues to push the boundaries of perfumery with her unique skills and boundless creativity. With her deep appreciation of nature’s beauty and her meticulous attention to detail, Sophie’s creations are true works of art, evoking emotions and memories with every scent

Bright Lychee Rose. This is called Magnetic Rose for a reason. It will draw others to you with a plethora of compliments. It is a juicy, tangy rose. The sweetness is second to the clean tangy aroma. You will smell both roses used and the colour that comes to my mind when I wear it is pink. Exceptional value and quality and very underrated. For an all natural it will make you feel refreshed and it is hard to overspray. Rest assured you will want to, especially in the summer. 4.5/5

As a guy who never really considered wearing a rose based fragrance I was blown away by how much I liked this. In my discovery set, this was my second favorite behind Bois Imperial. The rose is fresh and citrusy (grapefruit) yet jammy (probably the litchi). It’s blended well and played very safe with other familiar ingredients of vanilla, tonka and cedar. I think a confident man could wear this just as easily as a woman. Definitely worth a sample but trying to decide on FB. SYL

This is so versatile and a joy to wear. Besides being a fresh rose scent that is not too old fashioned or offensive , it lasts for upto 7 hours on my clothes. It is not a projection monster but I get wafts of it every now and then as it dries down. For the price and for fresh rose perfume lovers , this is a must try. I'd say this is in the same category (but not a dupe) of Florabotanica.It has a mint and super iso e drydown which I love but may not be to everyone's taste.

A fruity, happy, sunny lychee-rose that will be a stunner in the warmer spring and summer months. I’m impatient to get there. But in the meantime, I’m wearing Rose Magnetic with Eau Duelle, which play beautifully together on skin. The commitment to sustainability that Essential Parfums makes impresses me. In a world with thousands of rose perfumes to choose from, I’m happy that my money goes to this brand. I wish more brands would follow their example.

This is a rose lover's rose -- it might be one of the best more straightforward roses I've smelled. When I smelled it, I actually said outloud, "wow this is a perfect rose." It's round, it's medium bodied, it's fresh, but warm, it's uncomplicated, and the drydown goes a tad musky even. There's something so warm almost apricot-ish in here to me. In the drydown, I can understand the comparison to Roses Musk, but I much prefer Rose Magnetic.

This was my 1st niche perfume I got on hands and I definitely think was one of best purchases I've ever made. The rose is stunning, truly alluring, not over powering yet performs really well on me for over 8 hours when I was in indoor and outdoor setting. It smells like the perfect blend of rose garden under the warmth of sun, dried elements of green and sweetness. Blindbuy worthy!

This is so pretty. I absolutely love it. A fresh rose, but certainly not a green or an aquatic rose. It's a playful, beautiful rose, slightly fruity with the grapefruit and litchi, and a hint of vanilla that brings just the right amount of velvety warmth. Such a lovely blend! I dislike Guidance 46, this is not at all like it.

This fragrance converted me to a rose lover. As a guy and someone who prefers and appreciates masculine leaning scents, this is BY FAR the best rose on the market hands down. My gosh. Had to order a bottle. 10/10 charm and smell. You feel different wearing this - an out of body experience this is that good
