From the sampler, it's a beautiful dusty and creamy rose. As soon as I spray it, it is a gorgeous, almost soapy rose too. It is slightly frightening, but I am beginning to love rose fragrances and I've been an adamant hater of rose since youth. The matter of fact is though that I'm not "the youth" anymore. I'm a 34 years old.
My nose has gotten rusty and I do not dare to check when I posted my last review, but I am struggling with identifying notes.
The rose is rosing. I sense a spice undertone of perhaps cardamom and coriander, but it is ever so slight. What I do love, is that the spice undertone grounds the fragrance and makes it woody rather than a floral fragrance.
As I mentioned in my stories, my sample is quite old and I must say that my wrist is itchy, but I would not say that the scent has gone rancid. Not by the slightest.
Bare with me as I find my way back to reviewing fragrances, but my first-hand impression of Café Rose is this:
Entering a classy sphere of mellowed rose accompanied by the grounding notes of spice. Without alluding to anything wild, the spices only make the rose elegant and sophisticated. Beneath slumbers the creaminess and suede softness of sandalwood and frankincense.
Café Rose is absolutely gorgeous.
