What do reviewers say about Paestum Rose and Voleur de Roses?
Some rose fragrances are a gift. Paestum Rose is a discovery. The resins, the smoke, the papyrus at the base, this is rose for people who want the flower to earn its place. Not a Valentine's bouquet.Paestum Rose
Patchouli does the heavy lifting here, earthy, root-dark, and not remotely sweet. Rose sits underneath it all, stripped of its usual sugar. If you've been burned by patchouli before.Voleur de Roses
