Stella McCartney Stella Rose Absolute is a fresh, green floral scent in which rose and peony lead, with a sweet, woody side, and it reads as a perfume for women.

What does Stella Rose Absolute smell like?

The perfume has been discontinued. Most voters call it feminine. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Voters pick fall and spring most often, and lean towards evening and night out, with leisure and daily wear close behind.

Rose and peony meet the brightness of citrus fruits, while amber softens the floral core and adds sweetness. Behind the fresh, green character, spicy, woody and earthy touches stay in the background. Stella McCartney Stella (Eau de Parfum) and Narciso Rodriguez For Her Fleur Musc (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
