Roses near the seashore.
Sometimes, when I test scents, I have impressions that come to my mind spontaneously.
And with this "Rose Alexandrie" the one from a seashore where roses grow. And mandarin or orange trees.
Its flowers and fruits give off a spontaneous, fresh, only slightly sweet scent.
But below I can see something that is spicy, slightly salty and has a fine "sea note". Something that smells "bluish" and powdery at the same time.
The rose tones crystallise out more and more in the course of time, the "salty blue" remains, even intensifies.
But I wouldn't call the fragrance "aquatic", it's too flowery for that. And yet a cool wind blows over gently beating waves that I can literally hear and smell. A long time ago, on a sunny, warm day during my vacation, I had taken a walk on the Baltic Sea beach. Nearby, in the village a bit further up was a garden where roses and other flowers were growing (I think carnations were also there). And the scent mixed with that of the water to create exactly this impression, which now gives me "Rose Alexandrie".
What I have to find fault for: The shelf life and the sillage are in the lower to middle range, which does not sufficiently legitimize the high price of this beautiful fragrance. Too bad, actually, if it were cheaper, it could be a summer scent for me.
