PowderyWhat does Rose Essentielle (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
It opens with blackberry and Turkish rose, which give it a fruity, sweet brightness. Rose carries on through the heart, and patchouli sets the scent on a soft base. The overall impression is floral, fresh and lightly powdery.
Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear and work lead the occasions. It reads clearly feminine. L'Occitane en Provence Magnolia & Mûre and Valentino Valentino Donna have a close profile.
