Fresh, Clean, Soapy Roses
I'm starting to recognize that Keiko Mecheri is the queen of roses. This house offers an abundance of distinct yet beautiful rose-centric perfumes. I keep adding new ones to my wish list, and MOGADOR is the latest member of the group.
This perfume opens with rose petals strewn literally everywhere, and they are of many different colors, it seems to my nose. I don't know how this house has made so many rose perfumes with not a dowager in the bunch, but I must give credit where credit is due, to the creative director herself.
MOGADOR dries down soapy but, again, it's not the hackneyed smell of rose soap or rose water. Somehow this manages to smell modern rather than dated. Reactions to soap notes vary a lot from person to person, and I do not like all of them, but this one is very appealing to me.
As I find usually to be the case with soapy dry downs, this one has excellent staying power and the soap also serves to anchor the lovely rose notes, which also persist. This creation also has fairly big sillage--wow, I smell great!

All in all MOGADOR is a wonderful rose perfume for those who like both rose and soap.
