Wonderful Alpine Rose with Strong Echo=Sillage
The rose has it all, as it is an Alpine rose and has a strong echo. I no longer recognize a normal rose scent - the composition is too abstract for that.
Actually, I don't like loud fragrances, but one must be careful with the dosage or save it for home..
Its scent is more like that of a geranium with acacia and many spices - and above all aldehydes cushioned with powdery musk.
Aldehydes provide a super-sparkling perfumery note throughout the entire scent journey, spices I estimate to be cloves, cinnamon, and anise, tonka, vanilla, gourmand notes (a slight popcorn note) are all abundantly present.
Sillage - 5-10 meters - experience-based after inquiries with acquaintances
Longevity - 24 hours and more on the skin
This super rose has so much power that I cannot wear the fragrance all the time and only spray it in small amounts or just into the air and turn in the spray mist.
My personal tip for cold season: you can still smell the perfume even with a stuffy nose.
But it is mine - and the next cold can come - I am prepared.

@Samtkleid: LOL, you poor thing. There's a lot going on in there, definitely some sweetness too. The synthetic vibe comes from the aldehydes. In summer, I just hold the spray nozzle to my wrist, that's enough; otherwise, it can be a spray, but just a light one...

Phew, this scent really packs a punch. However, it's way too sweet and artificial for my taste; I couldn't detect any real rose or any of the other listed notes. To me, it just smells overly sugary and synthetic.

Beautifully poetic, Eloise! I, on the other hand, live by the coast - no mountains in sight - but the bottle is on the table next to me, and the echo reaches all the way to the distant mountains thanks to the alpine rose.

I took Röschen out of hiding, sprayed it on - what can I say, the rose echo carries my gaze to the nearby mountains..... how often do nearby beauties get pushed so far away, yet with just one glance, they can be brought back into focus.
