Rose Week 2015
A few weeks I reviewed Ramón Béjar Magnum Iris which is a really good iris. This perfume put this new brand on my radar. Being that it’s Rose Week, it seems natural to review Celestial Rose, a rose soliflore.
Celestial Rose opens as a fruity rose. It’s like peachy aldehdyes and the richest, red rose. The heart is a luscious rose that is almost chewy. It’s like velvety rose petals and apricot fruit leather. There’s a hint of dry, dusty spices. Celestial Rose dries down to a dry rose and resinous amber.
Really reviewing this one was difficult because all I want to say about this perfume is that it smells really expensive. This is like a luxurious, high-quality rose soliflore. It’s gorgeous.
Notes listed include artemisia, bergamot, davana, Turkish rose oil, Egyptian geranium, peach, Turkish rose, musk and amber. Launched in 2014.
Give Celestial Rose a try if you like velvety roses. Or perfumes like Malle Une Rose, Serge Lutens Sa Majeste La Rose, M. Micallef Rose Extreme and/or Sonoma Scent Studio Velvet Rose.
Projection and longevity are above average.
The 2.55 oz spray retails for $295 at Osswald.
Victoria’s Final EauPINION – Velvety, luxurious rose soliflore. I love it. I think I may like it even better than M. Micallef Rose Extreme (which is saying a lot because I love that one). And this Ramón Bejár one is cheaper (believe it or not).
