Good rose fragrance for a woman.

Have just finished a tester of Ellis Brooklyn of Rrose a good strong rose on initial spray, lasts for a few hours. It seems that you cannot buy it in the UK anymore.

Does anyone know what I am describing (I don't know if it exists.
I'm looking for a Rose perfume; strong, rose smell.

Ellis Brooklyn Rrose was lemony, I don't need the lemon, I prefer, musky-er, spice-ier or a strong, deeper floral like Ylang Ylang.

I would want the rose smell would be the strongest note, and stay throughout the day.

Any ideas, please.

I haven't used the rose one but Acqua di Parma magnolia and peony are both true to their respective flowers. I think the rose one is Rosa Nobile. I bought tiny tester samples for c£3 on eBay before buying the full size bottle.

The Jo Malone rose one is just a straight rose. Lasts about half a day for me

Bvlgari Rose Essentielle is a long lasting pure rose scent.

the body shop does a very strong rose fragrance. I have it and find it a little too strong for me!

Paul Smith Rose.

I instantly thought of the Jo Malone rose perfume. Very strong rose smell.

Tom Ford cafe Rose. I love it!

Another vote for Paul Smith's Rose.

Bluesclues1 · 02/05/2024 12:12

Jo Malone but the velvet rose oud instead of the red roses - it’s much stronger

WhichPage · 02/05/2024 12:15

Paul Smith Rose also :)

WrinklesShminkles · 02/05/2024 12:22

Le Labo Rose is strong and spicy. I thought Paul Smith Rose had been discontinued (it would be nice to be wrong about this!). However I found the PS one quite fresh.

YSL Paris is my current favourite Rose.

Cheaper versions of ones mentioned. I bought a version and they're great www.theessencevault.co.uk/search?q=rose&type=product

Juicy Couture Royal Rose.

Sounds like what you are describing.

emeraldsapphire · 02/05/2024 12:40

Paul Smith Rose- it's all I wear!

evilharpy · 02/05/2024 12:44

Paul Smith Rose is lovely but I think it might have been discontinued?

Tom Ford Cafe Rose is gorgeous. There's also Rose Prick but I haven't tried that.

Jo malone sell a collection of three 9ml rose perfumes. All nice!

Penguinsa · 02/05/2024 13:09

Penhaligon's - Elizabethan Rose is a very deep floral rose - I just got it in one of the sets of 5 mini ones and it lasts for ages.

And use the Faith in Nature Wild Rose bath foam which is very rosey and teenage son and cat are also very keen on. 😂

Stella McCartney - Rose

I used Eden perfumes. They make vegan cruelty free dupes. If you type Rose in the search bar it gives you lots of suggests. They do a sample box of 5 for £39. Might be worth selecting a few different ones to try.
