Rose Atlantic D.S. & Durga 2016 Eau de Parfum

I tried this fragrance in a multi-brand store in Italy, where I had immediately noticed the presence of D.S. & Durga. As always attracted by this line, which I know a little about, I tried asking the shop assistant for a floral fragrance. As soon as she proposed Rose Atlantica, I knew I had already tried it some time ago but I was happy to repeat the experience. I must say that the simple rose-salt association that is often made is reductive and does not do justice to the jus. Although it is often described as a perfume for young, carefree girls, I do not feel that this fulfils its potential. To me, it speaks of a distant memory, atavistic and contemporary at the same time; I am reminded of the tender and eternal image of the good scent of a young mother's hug. This is this perfume for me, the reassuring, warm, maternal embrace that transpires from the saltiness of the skin and lingers on the clothes.
