Rose De Mai

An impressively photorealistic rose in all its natural nuances, including some green and earthy facets. Geranium isn't overpowering and it adds vivacity to the opening. But, of course, the ross is the real protagonist here! A very dense and concentrate rose, with an 'oily' texture. Even if I am not an expert by any means, I bet there is some natural component here. Both longevity and projection are excellent on my skin. I absolutely love this scent, but I warn against blind buy, because there may be some skins enhancing the geranium. In addition, it suits only the visceral rose fans, otherwise, it may seem too flat and static... However if you like rose like me and if you are searching a 'real rose experience' (without other stuff, such as oud,, fruit, vanilla etc...) this is worth a Try

Like drowning in a sea of freshly picked roses, a fragrant menace ready to engulf you. The smell is incredibly realistic, down to the vague hints of artichoke that mark a high-quality, natural rose. A lonely geranium is hidden somewhere in this sea of rose petals. It's not a lot, but it helps boosting the fruity facets of rose, keeping the artichoke at bay. The drydown is really pleasant, light and naturally sweet. This is undoubtedly a quality perfume, but you need to appreciate the real rose smell, not the "cosmetic" idea of a rose.

I really don’t think you can do better than this currently for a ‘pure’ rose perfume. Even better offerings in this genre from the likes of Guerlain and Diptyque I find to be somewhat lacking in personality. This is simple and straightforward without being boring. A lifelike and life-full rose, with a particularly prominent tea facet in the opening (hardly surprising given the perfumer behind this!)

Interesting rose with herbal and minty undertones. It definitely has a jammy side, but it also mixed with something metallic that makes it a bit sour for my nose. It’s quite realistic, even though I think that actually Rosa Centifolia has slightly sweet and powdery aspects which I can feel in here. Follow me on IG: scent.guide
