Not everyday everyday scent
"What's that again"... some might think. "Should be able to decide whether "everyday" or not...?!"
But that is the cross with some scents. BOTH is possible.
The "Rumba Passion" can be worn every day, because it is not "annoying" due to shrill accents that many "fellow noses" do not like. But the scent is pretty flowery, rose is predominant, but no "rose monster" but finely chiselled, but nevertheless strong.
Harmonises very well with jasmine and orange blossom, slightly sweet, but not sugared.
A beautiful base of dark vanilla, patchouli and woods carries the flowers quite early in the fragrance process and lasts for a long time without displacing any "prenote".
Now it is the case that not every second person wears this fragrance, and it is not the same as any fragrance I know. Somehow even individual, accepted by many people until admired.
Not everyone has them, but can be played in summer and winter on many occasions.

Retro chic!
Rumba Passion really surprised me - given its price and affordability. It delivers much more than its expensive contemporary counterparts. Upon the first application to the very end, this is a floral in full bloom, Jasmine and Rose being the leads of the composition. This mixture distantly reminds me of another retro beauty - Jean Patou’s Joy - however there are no Aldehydes here to be found. If you are seeking the Orange Blossom in the top notes, you must seek it and isolate it quickly because it gets overpowered by the heavy hitting heart phase fairly fast. The Jasmine/Rose combo lays on a bed of creamy, honey-sweet Patchouli, as in the case of Elie Saab EDP, except that Rumba Passion has that 80s retro vibe that I love so much. Sillage is about 2 feet and staying power is around 12 hours on my skin. I recommend floral lovers to snap up this affordable beauty at once! :-)
