What does Rose de Petra smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, with summer well behind. It is chosen mostly for evenings and nights out, though it also gets votes for daytime and office wear. Most voters read it as feminine.

The top notes are pomegranate, lychee and rose oxide, giving a bright, fruity start. Bulgarian rose sits at the heart. In the base, cardamom, cumin and pepper add a spicy, woody warmth. Sweet and powdery accords soften the rose and give it an oriental edge. Histoires de Parfums 1876 and Emanuel Ungaro Desnuda have a close profile.
