Reform Traffic Jam

Until now, I never thought that a perfume could have anything to do with politics. This morning, while testing the latest Aqua Allegorias Rosa Rossa, it became clear to me. In the Aqua Allegoria series, it seems to me, there is a significant reform traffic jam, just like in politics.
I have always been a fan of Aqua Allegoria. But after Flora Rosa, Rosa Pop, Rosa Fizz, and Rosa Rossa, I must say: Okaaaay Monsieur Water, I think I have a pretty good idea of what you envision with a rose-berry combination…
I believe it is time to wake up. To set out for new shores. It is time for a revolution, as the Spaniard says.
So I light a torch, raise my fist in the air, and call out to you: Lavande Velours! Anisia Bella! Herba Fresca! Winter Delice! Those were Aqua Allegorias with character that clearly divided the camp into friend and foe! That was creativity boldly realized! That was free imagination, instead of mainstream drifting along!
Dare to do it again, dear Monsieur Water!
And if the fear of declining sales paralyzes your creativity, take it from Emiliano Zapata:
“Better to die standing than to live on your knees!”

I enjoyed reading this. However, I find **Rosa Rossa** to be extremely weak. It gave up on me after 10 minutes.

So, I definitely notice differences between Flora Rosa and Rosa Rossa. I tend to reach for Rosa Rossa more often.

Since I only know Rosa Rossa, I can't really comment here. Aside from its short longevity, I find the red rose to be a very pleasant scent. Apparently, it even contains ISO.

I truly enjoyed reading your comment. You’re so right... Where are my beloved Aquas Allegorias from back in the day? I used to collect them and would rush to the perfume shop with flushed cheeks whenever a new one was released. Now, I don’t own a single bottle.

Very entertaining comment. Hopefully, the politicians from Aqua Allegoria will listen to you. Reform trophy.

I completely agree with you. The umpteenth rose is overdone. Especially since other companies do it quite well too.

Yes, I feel the same way about Guerlain, unfortunately, even though I liked this AA better than some of the newer releases. But I guess they prefer to stay on their knees; it's easier to pile up the money that way. ;-)

I don't think Rossa Rossa is necessarily bad, but I wouldn't mind Ylang Vanille either.
