Loudly Persian.
It opens with a strong sour punch which is quickly replaced by an incredibly loud and heavy Taif Rose. The rose is accompanied by a very distinctive note of black lime. For those who don't know, black lime (limoo) a sundried lime that is used in Persian cooking as a seasoning. It has a very distinctive sour lime scent that lacks the usual sweetness of lime but still has that limey citrus zing. I've never smelled it in a perfume before this, and I really like it's use here. It's very fitting to have it paired with a Taif rose and I appreciate the uniqueness of this pairing.
Overall the scent is very intense and almost overpowering in it's strength. It is rather short lived, about four hours. I'm not sure I could handle it much longer than that, so it's not a bad thing that it fades as quickly as it does. There is no evolution on the skin. It's linear without any changes after the initial sour punch fades.
Just a quick note: Persian Rose is reminiscent Prima Ballerina by Strange Invisible Perfumes, though Prima Ballerina used a sweet lime and powdery, light European rose; the lime used here is all sour with no sweetness accompanied by a rich and heavy Taif rose. Like Prima Ballerina this isn't a scent I can wear very often but it's one that I do gravitate towards from time to time because of how incredibly unique it is. I've almost used up the bottle I have.
