Helpful Review
We practice rose, as it should be. On three: one, two...
and three.
It would be nice if it were that simple. Basically, the English can do roses too, but this rose from "The Crown Perfumery," as the brand is correctly called, is no longer contemporary for our time.
Yes, this will be a critique. The critique of a fragrance that I own myself. And to get straight to the point, I will keep it, as a deterrent example, so to speak, and as a comparison object.
Right upon application, this rose presents itself in a state just before the absolute end of such a bloom. It smells dull and has long since surpassed its most beautiful scent time.
The spices and woods trying to assist the rose after a few minutes do not help anymore. Although the scent becomes spicier and no longer so dull, it remains in a somewhat, well, outdated status.
No fresh, bright, beautiful flowers are displayed here, but roses that have been sitting for quite some time in a dusty library in a vase on the little table and will be disposed of by tomorrow morning at the latest.
I find it a pity that Malabar will not be available in the foreseeable future, as this scent from The Crown Perfumery is truly very, very beautiful. However, the Crown Rose can disappear. It can no longer keep up with our time and our now completely different taste. It would rather fit in a Biedermeier boudoir, where things were similarly dusty.
Do I regret the purchase? No. Because this rose has shown me a piece of the past and, on the other hand, it is a great example of how rose perfume should not smell. At least rose perfume for me!

But typical Flori: a critique with charm and grace.
