Some fancy things that smell like roses – but these roses are fresh and sweet, which is a departure from a gothic rose that one might expect in the winter, and definitely preferable to the cooling summer rose.
I’ve been enjoying this Dr. Vranjes home diffuser in the Rosso Nobile scent. This is rose blended with sweet strawberries that remind you of the summer. The scent is strong, filling my room with the highest ceilings in a matter of minutes. This is a happy cheerful scent and I was glad to be surrounded by it, but after a day I did take the sticks out and leave them to dry because the scent was that strong.
If you like a sweet rose, Guerlain’s new Cherry Oud is a sugary rose that’s lightly spiced with cardamom. It’s easy to wear, very feminine, young, and feels different than some of the other offers at Guerlain’s L’Art et La Matière counter. I have a little sample of Oud Nude that I’ve been trying too and that’s another sweet perfume, with tonka and vanilla in the dry down.
