What do reviewers say about Lyric Woman and Bal de Roses?
Rose and angelica together sound like a mistake. They don't smell like one. Angelica keeps the rose from being sweet, adds that green, slightly bitter edge.Lyric Woman
A soliflore that actually earns its name. The rose here isn't a cameo or a supporting player, it's the entire show. Still, the supporting cast of sandalwood and vanilla keeps it from feeling one-note.Bal de Roses
