It must be simple now ....
It must be easy now, that I write a comment to this wonderful fragrance, although I always think while reading the other great comments here, I should rather leave it and leave this field to the poets and storytellers .....
My comments mostly contain small personal memories and my subjective feelings about the fragrance experience. I can't identify individual scents as well as many commentators here have so wonderfully mastered
Well, I have no memories of this fragrance, because I have only recently got to know it. But my sensations were "WOW" already after the first sniffing.
I was looking for "my" rose fragrance and received a sample of Bal de Roses from the souk as an addition. Already the first encounter was simply wonderful:
Already the start is something special and reminds of fine exclusive rose soap. Then the scent becomes darker and deeper, the rose is still present. For me, however, it is not a rose fragrance in the conventional sense, the rose does not dominate the events. It is perceptible as a dark rose, but it behaves discreetly in the background. This fragrance is not flowery for me either, it is carried by a wonderful powderiness and warmth. It is not sweet, but sweet, not intrusive, but memorable, not room-filling, but very close and long-lasting. As it progresses, it only becomes softer, darker, a little more woody, but it doesn't change any more.
It's really not an exciting development or even a firework of scents, but it doesn't have to be for me either. For me, a fragrance should basically retain its original direction. Small slants are nice and interesting and may be, but I prefer a certain straightforwardness and this is given here in any case.
Bal de Roses is season-independent, fits in spring, summer, autumn and winter, only with really big heat I would probably not choose it. For me it is suitable for everyday use, during the day in the office or in my spare time and also in the evening - as long as there is no firecracker - always a good choice.
This fragrance surrounds me so beautifully, it caresses me, it warms me, it suits me, I simply feel wonderful with it.
Fortunately I was able to buy a bottling in the souk first and then also the bottle and I am very happy about that!

My dearest vanilla ...
When it gets uncomfortable and colder outside, most of us prefer warmer and heavier scents again. Although I'm not really a friend of gourmand fragrances, I've been feeling a bit like a sweeter and creamy-warm fragrance lately. I have read...

For me the best so far ...
As a rose lover, like many others, I was looking for the perfect rose fragrance for myself. My demands were quite clear to me: it should be authentic and natural, not sweet, not Oriental (not because I don't like Orientals, but because...
