Rosissimo

Love at first sniff, I bought on the spot. This is a hidden gem fot me as I loooove rose and citruses. Very natural smell and quite affordable with designer prices. One of my top summer daytime scents. It opens with a blast of citrusy notes and specifically with tones of fresh lemon, intensive grapefruit and mild bitter orange. After that comes to the surface a strong & dominant lemon vervena note with faint fir balsam and intensive rosemary. Some minutes later I get the beautiful fresh rose which feels exactly like rose water with every natural quality of it. It feels just as you sprayed yourself with a nice rose water. At this point there is a very faint/shadow leathery vibe back somewhere at the background and a very very tiny trace of natural soapness from the rose. You must focus hard to get it otherwise it's almost invisible in the air. This is NOT a soapy rose but a fresh, natural, "green" rose with citruses. Then comes the woody notes along with mild freesia. Jasmine is almost invisible, a ghost. I don't get moss. At the late drydown there are traces of labdanum and vetiver. In the air you get mainly lemon & rose. If you love fresh lemony notes and fresh rose give it a try. Performance is moderate overall but I'm still evaluating it. I'll update with info if it is neccesary the next days. Edit This scent feels like Hermes Jardin line, Happy Clinique, etc etc.. very refreshing and uplifting for high temperatures.

This is supposedly a male rose fragrance but also perfectly wearable by women. Opens with abundant citrus notes upon which you start smelling the rose and other flowers (prob freesia, a personal favourite). In the drydown you notice the woodsy notes and probably also the oakmoss. I'd recommend this to guys who want an entry level rose fragrance that is not too noticeably different. Probably not enough rose for the rose lover.

This s a good citrus scent. Very lemony with light spices. The rose note is very light in the opening and is dificult to detect but in the drydown is more noticeable and prominent. Longevity and sillage are moderate. Good scent, better for summer or spring. I like it. scent: 6/10 longevity: 6/10 sillage: 6/10

citrus and rose in the top then a bit herbal/balsamic, woody and dry in the base like a chypre but without the sharpness

I don't know if it's that I'm dabbing on a sample rather than spraying, or if I'm simply asnomic to some core compound, but I truly wish I got the rose-citrus monster described by other commenters. Instead, it's incredibly sheer on me. What I do get is an interesting combination of soapy and musky, verbena and florals (not just rose, but jasmine) WITHOUT all the stank scrubbed out of them. Still, I have to really huff to get there! Not a friend to either my nose or my skin, unfortunately.
