Brulure de Rose 13

I thought this would be too sweet and too feminine. But the amber, rosewood and cocoa (powdery) are amplified on my skin. While the sillage is moderate, I get excellent longevity from Brulure De Rose. For me, this is what to wear when I want my s.o. to come closer. It's not sexy or provocative. It's comfy, laid-back and effortlessly worth owning if it complements your skin chemistry. I get complimented each and every time I wear it. BTW - One evening,I sprayed this on my chest before getting dressed. When I finally came home and got undressed, I noticed that the scent was in my shirt, as if I had sprayed it directly onto the shirt several times. PG is one of my favorite perfume lines. I love the overall quality, crispiness of No.16 and the density of his heavy-hitters. Fun Fact: Brulure de Rose was initially brought into Kuwait on my request.

It is a really abstract, non-obvious rose - like a rose but not a rose, kind of sweet but also dry, kind of dry and yet juicy. The fragrance has a large number of faces that are striking from the very moment of use. Raspberry is present - very aromatic but sour - has nothing to do with the raspberry jam so common in fragrances. There is also a delicate dust, but not like powders of boudoirs or our grandmothers' bags. It is very transparent, even an aldehyde-metallic powder, straight from other planets, like in MiN New York fragrances. The scent envelops the body, at times it is very intimate, and then it hits the nostrils. Really BdR is the quintessence of masterful perfumery. In my opinion, it will be perfect for every season of the year, from frost to extreme heat. I definitely recommend it not only to those in love with roses.

This is SINFULLY good, another “I can’t stop sniffing myself” perfume from PG. And I can’t—it’s just too decadent. This is like crème brulee from the finest French restaurant. It opens with red rose and some smoke, at times reminding me of a rose-scented candle just after it has been put out, and the smoke is still lingering around. Then it becomes gourmand, literally crème brulee. I actually smell the hard, smooth, and clear layer of burnt sugar. You tap it with your spoon. The sugar cracks, and your spoon plunges into the most obscenely rich rose custard. It is sugary in all the right ways. This perfume is a must for gourmand lovers. Pierre Guillaume has been elevated to my “favorite nose” status. Even if some of his perfumes are not my type, there is never a lack of appreciation for them.

LOVE is in the air! and I confess Im in love with Brulure de Rose! It's an epitome of romance! In a beginning I smell radiant and fresh rose,reminding me of a pure rosewater used in Middle Eastern sweets. After the freshest top notes subside, it starts to get warmer and deeper, like a whisper of burnt rose petals, delicate vanilla and soft musk.Reminiscent of a yummy rose loukhoum, but not quite getting into a gourmand territory. Very beautifully composed and well made scent indeed. Dry down is caressing and sweet, close to skin scent. This is so romantic scent, bit of flirtatious and innocently feminine...you want to get closer to the wearer. I was delighed that Brulure de Rose got hold on my skin, staying power was more than 7 hour, unlike many others on PG line I've tried.

I love this fragrance. At first it smells like crème brûlée topped with raspberries and rose petals, but it quickly turns into an extremely unusual, irresistible fragrance. It could be that I've completely lost my mind, but this scent reminds me of original Revlon Flex shampoo, circa 1977. This doesn't smell like shampoo, however, but something about the zing of it calls to mind Flex. I haven't smelled Flex in 25+ years, though, so I can't explain the association! Something about vanilla, rosewood, musk, and cocoa must trigger Balsam Fir resin in my brain.
