Real talk
This is rose for people who've given rose a second chance. The green snap at the start separates it from sweeter interpretations, herbal, almost bitter, like crushing stems.Rosa Hiemalis
This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
