Dark Rose

The jammiest rose to have ever jammed. This is a plummy, jammy dark sexy rose that I swear, could have me heart eyed and floating following the scent trail of whoever wears this--and I'm glad I'll be smelling like this! I mean it's the kind of fragrance that sticks in your nose, leaving you wondering "that smells so good, what is that??". This is a deeper, and better-by-miles Kayali Sweet Diamond Pink Pepper. And trust me as a Kayali lover and as someone aware of the yearning for SDPP since it's left the US market, I swear...try this. I wore them side by side on either wrist, and I kept coming back to this one. will update on longevity but the sillage is amazing. Update: Just casually reading through my old reviews and wanted to add: This is not similar to Poets of Berlin at all I have no idea how people see that tbh, like yeah, they're both jammy but that's about it. @SillageClouds... no free PR but that would be awesome. Sorry it didn't work out on your skin; it doesn't mean others are lying though.

I had really high hopes for this one. It's not terrible...I was just really hoping for a dark rose but I'm getting more of a very green vanilla and unripe plum. It smells almost exactly like Poets Of Berlin/Wild Vanilla Orchid. It has decent performance. But it's just not what I was hoping it would be. I'm happy I didn't blind buy based on the listed notes as I would've been disappointed. I can't remember what Decadence smells like but if you've smelled the 2 I mentioned above, you've smelled this before.

Opens beautifully with a juicy plum, a jammy rose, and a good amount of spice. Dries down to something that smells very similar to Marc Jacob’s Decadence... possibly a little better. That scent has been discontinued and I’ve been looking for an alternative. Floral Street and Vilhelm have good options, but I can do without the bamboo in both of them. Here, there is none and this feels like an improvement on the dna. I can’t wait to add a bottle of this incredible scent to my collection.

The reason I made a fragantica account :) this reminds me of a spicy, plump rose version of La vie est belle Intensement!! I got LVEBI during my trip to Paris & it was this musky, rosy womanly scent. Dark Rose is the perfect blend of peppery, dark rosy-plum notes. It dries down to peppery plum then slowly becomes this sexy deep rose. It’s so gorgeous & I am purchasing full size & the oil. It’s just that signature scent for someone in their late 20s & beyond! Thank you Octavia Morgan <3

Testing this from a sample - definitely more a fall scent - delicious and very sultry. One odd thing though - my skin was burning a bit when I put it on. Maybe I'm sensitive to the pepper?
