What does Oriental Essence - Rose de Shiraz smell like?

Damask rose leads, ambrette softens it, and rhubarb adds a green, slightly tart brightness. Fresh and floral accords dominate, while the sweet and fruity side stays in the background.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards daytime, leisure and office wear. Most voters read it as feminine. Unique Damaszener Rose and Jo Malone White Lilac & Rhubarb have a close profile.
