Beyond Rose Clinique 2014

Once again I waited a long time to blind buy a perfume and when I finally did, I was sorry I didn't do it sooner. Beyond Rose is just what I wanted from a rose perfume: dark rose and spices with a resin base. It is what I wished Rosier Ardent could have been but never was. The rose is strong and sweet with a spiciness and amber. I can detect a milk note that makes the perfume dessert-like. As another reviewer described, there is a chewiness here, like nougat and rose-water lokhoum. The sillage is strong and the lasting power ok. I love the bottle and the whole look and feel of this perfume. It is a good thing ebay exists: otherwise we would never find this beauty (at a Clinique counter.)
