Rosie for Autograph Nuit Parfum

Nice to find a modern perfume that doesn't smell like candy floss! Beautiful rose and musk,but not a deep musk in the vein of Ghost but a fresh slightly peppery musk. From the advertising you would expect something deep,decadent and mysterious. Not quite,I find it quite fresh but with just enough whispers of the orient to add mystery. Could easily be a niche perfume as the rose reminds me of the rose used in Aramis Calligraphy Rose, thick and powdery. Sillage and longevity not great but it's marks and Spencer and for the price what can you expect. £28 for 75ml edp, however I got mine on eBay for £16 :)

I tried this one in M & S a few times and wasn't quite sure about it but as it was half price recently I decided to give it a try. I am glad I did. It is a wintery woody, spicy rose fragrance that is quite strong when first sprayed but settles down to a subtle fragrance which lasts quite well. As soon as I sprayed some on I had two compliments that it smelt nice. I think it is a really good rose fragrance for winter - bold and a bit different. I like it.

This smells identical to my grandmother's bathroom soap. It's a discontinued Crabtree and Evelyn soap. Every time I spray this fragrance it reminds me of her. I love it.

This is a surprising little gem of a find! I was really quite impressed with the quality and the scent of this perfume for the price - and with such a budget friendly price tag it is perfect for everyday use. The rose notes really come through as does the warmth of the musk. I will definitely be grabbing a few bottles of this and the 30ml bottles are just the right size for on-the-go spritzing.

This is an unusual fragrance and nothing like any of the other newer fragrances that seem to be hitting the market lately. This is not a fragrance for those who don't want to be noticed, because even after just a couple of squirts, the sillage is quite strong and the unusual blend of notes are bound to make people stop and sniff twice! I love how there are just so many layers to this fragrance. For me it opens with a clean and soapy smell, hints of freshly laundered clothes, then sexy smokey rose, blackcurrant & jasmine giving it a bold, dramatic punch to the senses! Dreamy white musk then wafts through with a spicy warm undertone to round the bouquet out, all with a fresh bergamot note cutting through to give it a sharp almost masculine kick! I love it! It smells like a mixture of Moroccan rose and myrrh, with a dirtier old hippie smell, like incense. Not quite patchouli oil, but in that area. It's a smell that will cling to you. You will be able to smell it yourself throughout the day, because the way each tier of notes is structured, you are constantly having one particular note stand out and really strike you, before your nose adjusts and then a whole other one comes to the fore. It's a sumptuous and sexy blend that will definitely keep the other half guessing. Probably best for those who are used to wearing the bolder fragrances out there (Belle D'Opium, Dior Addict, Givenchy Ange ou Demon, Thierry Mugler Alien...etc) and it's probably not the perfume to wear to your job interview or first day at work, unless you happen to be working in a more relaxed, contemporary, artistic, creative environment. In large doses, it could be quite cloying. Some people are going to absolutely hate it, so beware. Probably not best to drench yourself in this before having to lock yourself in a small airless office with someone who will end up wanting to hose you down in the parking lot by 10am! I personally think that I can totally carry this perfume off. I love darker, punchier, complex fragrances. I'm known to be a total perfume fanatic and people expect me to wear all manner of fragrances whether at work or at play. I'll wear this day or night, but you might want to start off by wearing this on an evening, around some friends who will give you an honest opinion. It's really well priced too. The larger bottle is £28, for a 75ml EDP and it's sillage & longevity is completely on par with more expensive designer fragrances. But if you're just wanting to try it out, the smaller bottle is £14 for 30ml, so you get a really reasonable smaller size, for a small price (in a very handy smaller size suitable for handbags/purses). I sincerely hope that this featured perfume made in conjunction with Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, isn't just a limited release. I really do hope that it is going to be around for a long time. I'd like to have a shower gel, body creme and scented candle all in this fragrance, for some great layering. Just to be on the safe side, I think I might purchase a couple more of the smaller bottles and stash them away somewhere cold & dark, just to be on the safe side. If you're sick of sugary, candy-floss, vanilla based or fruit bomb-esque perfumes and want something classier, unusual and guaranteed to turn heads, then give this a go. You might just be incredibly happily surprised.
