Costume National's SCENT GLOSS is a finely framed rose de mai perfume with reasonably good longevity in the edp. This seems perfect for those who love roses but find single-note presentations a bit overwhelming. The musk and the orchid moderate the rose here, creating a creamy, delectable scent with a slightly powdery drydown.
The name somewhat suggests that this is a casual, sweet scent, which it is not--at least not to my nose. Rather, SCENT GLOSS is an excellent choice for either true rose lovers looking for variations on a favorite theme or those who seek a special composition for a special occasion. A beautiful white satin wedding dress comes to mind...
