Metal Flower

This is one of my favorite perfumes. 10/10. And that is a total shockers. I am not normally a fan of floral scents and generally not rose. Like, 98/100 floral forward scents are a hard pass for me. Yet this one IS floral first... and has been in regular rotation for almost a year! It's sharp and bright and acidic and mettalic and floral all at once. I feel incredibly alive when I get a wiff of it. I imagine it being worn by a female James Bond in her ball gown — gorgeous and sultry yet mysterious and a total bad ass. This is the scent I go to for an evening pick me up -- its Friday night, I'm feeling a bit tired but want to motivate and have a bit of a sexy edge — metal flower. Black tie event? Metal flower. Morning and I want to feel confident and beautiful and badass? Metal flower. Love love love.

Metal Flower is a drop-dead gorgeous rose, and an instant love for me. It's a dimensional, heavy rose-patchouli. Green notes and aldehydes prevent it from becoming suffocating. It's the smell of an enchanted garden at twilight. There are no "metal" notes here, but it does have a cool, aloof quality. In its later stages it does get a touch soapy, but it never becomes overly clean. The Harmonist is pricy (though refillable bottles make repeat purchases more reasonable after the initial investment), and I'd suggest Juliette Has a Gun's Lady Vengeance as a reasonably similar alternative, though Metal Flower is certainlty darker and more sophisticated.

I agree with the post below 👇🏽.... this is one of my most favorite rose-centric fragrances of all time! It's absolutely gorgeous!!! It's fluffy, velvety soft petals yet grounded and assured. The way this wears.... ahhh man ...this is just something to be experienced! I feel soo expensive and feminine when I wear this. I would say that testing this through a sample will NOT do this frag justice.... she deserves to be sprayed at full atomizer pressure. ..... Easily in my Top 5 for Life!

WOW! I am very impressed with this fragrance! This is by far my favorite musky rose fragrance out of all I have. The 3 roses combine with the green notes to harmonize so well. The white musk is heavy enough to earn the name Metal Flower. Lasts all day and fills my office. Very impressed as this is the first bottle in this house I have purchased, now to see whats next on my list here. Silage: 10/10 Quality: 10/10 Presentation: 10/10 10**** all the way!

This reminds me of Parure by Guerlain and I love that! It is an elegant chyphre, which smells like a beautiful Parisian woman on a spring day. It is sophisticated but not at all cold or unapproachable; it is too sexy to be stuffy. Young or old could wear this but you have to appreciate a green/rose chyphre that isn’t at all sweet, gourmand or girly.
