Expensive and beautifully blended
VII: Queen Anne - Rock Rose has an unmistakable pepper, bergamot, and neroli opening. Even for someone like me who still can't distinguish notes very well, I can clearly smell these. The lavender is also apparent and gives it the masculine feel that I was curious about. Before trying this fragrance, I asked myself what would label this as masculine.
The florals are blended very nicely with the pepper. Nothing is overwhelming and none of the notes is trying to grab my attention more than the others.
Interestingly, I smell the base notes (aside from cocoa) from within ten minutes of spraying. The slight sweetness from the florals becomes heavier with amber and there's a slight smell of grass stains somewhere in there.
Average performance. Beautifully done but far too pricey.
