EarthyWhat does Not Your Rose smell like?
The scent is cool and watery throughout. May rose carries the floral side, while the aquatic notes and ice accord keep it clean and airy. Musk softens it, and moss adds a faintly earthy tone; a slightly synthetic sheen runs through the accords as well.
Longevity and sillage are rated moderate: it neither fades quickly on the skin nor fills a room. It is positioned as a women's perfume, though its crisp build may appeal to those who usually avoid rose. Akro Breathe and Nautica Blue Sail have a close profile.
