Shy Rose in a garden of Peonies
This perfume is just a little more than rose.
It was the first perfume my mother got for me during my high school years as a present.
I still have a few millilitres left to remind me of her thoughtful gift, even if she never was into perfumes (although she did really like my Ninfea decant).
Feelings apart, which are an important, added value attributed to our perfumes that makes us love them even more, Rose is a pretty scent that I think it's more of a peony scent rather than being just rose.
It opens as citrusy, reminds me of the oil that you can squeeze off the peels of citrus fruits, but not from a lemon, It's not sour. It's fresh and juicy.
Soon after, all I can smell is peony. A scent I find difficult to describe because I know so little of it, yet had perceived in some perfumes already without really knowing what it was. I first smelled a real peony in Leiden's botanical gardens in the Netherlands. As soon as I put my nose near the flower I went immediately like "Ah-a!", so that was what mom's gift smells like. After almost 8 years I had finally found out. It's not as deeply perfumed as a true peony flower, but it is similar.
In the background there's a sweet and shy, pink rose that feels bright and dewy.
But in the perfume's short-lived stay, I don't think she's at the centre of the picture frame.
There's a certain fruitiness that sticks around.
I don't know about amber as I'm not familiar with the note, but I am sure that I do not detect a trace of almond milk in this- at all. A pity, since I love almond milk.
It's a light, fresh flowery perfume that doesn't last long, but its short stay is very much appreciated. Lovely and pretty to wear during daytime, even for an innocent date, that would be cute.
It's not spectacular or ground-breaking, but because of the emotional value, I don't think I'll ever forget about this scent.
