What does Rose Empire smell like?

It opens with rose, blackcurrant and black pepper, so fruity freshness sits next to a spicy edge. In the heart the rose softens with orange blossom, and the base lays down a woody floor of gaiac wood, cedarwood, vetiver and papyrus. Heliotrope and labdanum sweeten it and lead to a powdery finish.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, though autumn and winter get a fair share too. It leans towards leisure, nights out and daily wear, with some votes for evening and business settings. Bvlgari Bvlgari pour Femme and Serge Lutens La Fille de Berlin have a close profile.
