Classicism, Shakespeare, David Austin, and nonsense
According to Floris, "the Ledger Series stands as a testament to the passion and dedication of our perfumery team. This collection is a labour of love, bringing back nine fragrances from the Floris archive that were once discontinued. Meticulously delving into the original family formula books, our team studied and carefully revived these fragrances, ensuring they are preserving the timeless essence of Floris."
So Red Rose is a very classic rose, spiced up by a touch of geranium, cinnanom leaf and clove, with a woody background. No need to overspray, sillage and longevity are good. The result is a "complete rose" you can blind buy if you're a rose lover.
The scenery is also the epithom of an English perfume, almost a cliché. As an amateur gardener, I can't help but remember David Austin's William Shakespeare rose.
The nonsense? its price. 220 £ in the UK (expensive, but all perfumes are now expensive), BUT 330 € AND 330 $. You want it ? Wait for your next trip in London, you'll save 70 € or 50 $ and extra-bonus, you'll experiment the terrible customer service of their flagship store in Jermyn Street.
