Hazy Rose

Ramon Monegal IMO is definitely the most underrated brand I’ve come across. To me it’s in the same realm of Frederic Malle and Bvlgari Le Gemme. Thats very high praise I hope. Hazy Rose is a sensual “wet” rose you feel the rose is alive. Its a soft but loud opening u immediately smell the rose and musks very little duration in terms of top notes u quickly find yourself in the blossoming heart of the fragrance. The heart I must say lasts quite a while given rose fragrances usually peak within 90 minutes so here the pairing with musks does keep the mood going for a long time. Its an effortless and sexy fragrance thats unisex in my opinion. Could easily pair with a white shirt on a summer day or dress up for a night out. Scent 10/10 Sillage 8/10 or 10/10 if ur considering the natural limits of rose’s projection if the sillage were to go any bigger it would probably need heavy synthetics Packaging 10/10 Value 10/10 Honestly I find this more appealing than straight up First Grade / Pluck Taifi Rose Oil because of the mystique it has and the beautiful musk touch however that Taifi Rose will outperform for the first two hours then very quickly fade. The reason I mention this is an oil like that would cost around $950 for 12ml. So for a fraction of the cost of a great Taif Rose u can enjoy this at around $200. If you love POAL, Garanat, Sahare, Radical Rose, Narjesi, Amouage’s Rose Incense or Guerlain’s Nahema I think this is worth sampling. If you find the above too feminine then this isn’t for you.

"Im secretly watching you, tiptoeing in the house in your underwear, putting your shirt back on and getting ready to leave. Im trying to catch the last whiffs of your scent on my pillow, hoping it's still gonna be there in the morning. With each breath I take, the traces of you being here dissipate, and as the sun slowly rises, your ghost dissapears in the shadow and turns into a hazy memory... Why must we hide what is meant to be?" Ramon Monegal is a master perfumer, and he's been releasing gorgeous fragrances for decades, but nothing prepared me for what I was about to feel the first time I smelled Hazy Rose. Every time I spray it, my mind goes on a sensual and sense awakening journey, leaving me fantasizing about situations I can't mention here. 🙈 This is now my favorite rose fragrance. Built around an opulant, alluring, and wet rose, Monegal has created a sophisticated and masterfully orchestrated dance that would happen right at the break of dawn. In attendance, a bold saffran, some bitting ginger, pink pepper, some woody notes, Oakmoss, some resins, and a musky veil to create just one of the sexiest fragrances I've ever smelled. Also, sometimes I find rose fragrances to lean a bit more towards a female audience, this one is 100% totally unisex. Not too sweet, spicy, resinous, musky, and decadent. If you have the chance to get your nose on this one, don't hesitate even one second. It's THAT good. 🌹

elegant powdery watery rose mixed with saffron and ginger. the saffron is what makes this fragrance pretty much 50/50 unisex. it balances the rose and gives it direction and seriousness. the ginger is sour, as its supposed to be, giving the fragrance some complexity and fruity undertones. drydown is rosy woody goodness with some musk. Ramon Monegal seems to be one of those houses where theres a plethora of reviews, comments and videos on some of their most popular best selling products (flamenco edp, flamenco extrait, faisa etc.) but there is only a handful of information on their lesser known perfumes such as this, even though this deserves as much attention, if not more. the reason i got this is because i was convinced this is a good performing sophisticated rose scent that isnt overly feminine, something that could easily find its place on my shelf. And it did. performance is good all around, you dont have to lift up your arm to get whiffs of this, could be cloying in closed or small spaces so watch out for that. I definitely look forward to trying more scents from Ramon Monegal, especially flamenco extrait which might just be impossible to find as of right now, until they restock. Smell: 8.5/10 Projection: 8.5/10 Longevity: 8/10 Bottle: 9/10 Packaging: 9/10

Ramon Monegal Hazy Rose - Words to describe- Unique, Sophisticated, Alluring Hands down one of the most interesting Rose fragrances i have got my nose into in quite some time. Opens with a very big dose of Saffron and a sweet jammy rose. The opening is very sweet but dont get pushed away by it. After 15 mins the sweetness will tone down and 1hr into it is where the magic begins. This transforms into a smoky cloudy black rose but retains the sweet nature. The name is spot on. As this fragrance comes to the end of its life cycle ur left with a musky woody rose. Truly amazing. Hats off to the perfumer. Caution- Dont buy if u dont like cavity inducing sweetness in fragrances (definitely sample) Be gentle on the trigger as its very long lasting and u may choke out others. All in all this is definitely a fragrance for the connoisseur’s who collects perfumes and use them for their own personal satisfaction. Complement factor is average, not everyone will find it appealing. Thank You, Have a great day ahead

Départ oriental à souhait avec un safran profond , entouré de bois fin , légèrement vivifié avec le gingembre , et une rose qui annonce une explosion imminente Évolution chypré sur une rose très puissante,mais imprégné d'une ambiance automnale , comme si la fleur était posé sur un parterre forestier, odeur boisé-champignons-feuilles au couleurs du froid arrivant . Aucune mélancolie des jours qui rétrétices et du temps maussade liés a la saison ,une rose boisé avec une note a tendance mystérieuse , sexy et sombre , qui m'a émoustillé les sens et m'a fait vraiment craqué pour ce parfum, peut etre une association rose - mousse de chene dont je n'ai pas l'habitude...,magnifique Puis la rose se finit plus musqué ,presque cuirée ,toujours présente. La rose est la tout au long du parfum ,peut etre plus masculine que mixte par moment, bien fondu dans les notes de bois Très bonne tenue et sillage
