    What do reviewers say about Roses on Ice and Portobello Road?

    This is gin-and-tonic in a bottle, not as a metaphor, but as an actual translation. Cucumber and juniper front and center, rose floating underneath like an afterthought that isn't. Some find it weird.Roses on Ice
    This one surprised me. That asphalt and rain accord in the base is bold, almost confrontational, but the rose heart keeps it from feeling like a parking lot cologne. It is genuinely unique.Portobello Road
