What does Rose de Chine smell like?
The scent is built around rose and Chinese peony, while cistus absolute and myrrh add a resinous, faintly leathery depth to the floral face. Sweetness and spice stay in the background, and a powdery softness rounds it off.
Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and fall, and it leans towards leisure and daily wear, with evening and office also getting votes. Nearly half of voters read it as feminine, though it can pass as unisex. Harry Lehmann Rose de France and Arte Profumi Harem Soirée have a close profile.
