What does Rose smell like?
Citrus leads at first: grapefruit, orange and mandarin orange, with apple and melon adding a light, juicy fruit note. In the heart, rose and jasmine are softened by the sweetness of peach and mango. At the base, musk, sandalwood and orris root settle the scent onto a powdery footing.
Longevity is moderate and sillage is weak, so it stays close to the skin without crowding anyone. Most voters pick spring and summer, and lean towards daily wear and leisure. Cacharel Promesse and Kenzo Flower Tag (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
