Persian Rose Pacifica 2011 Perfume

Rose, wonder of all flowers that bloom,
every petal a witness to the miracles of spring.

Even the heavenly powers delight in her.
She is the youthful passion of Aphrodite,

she is the favorite of Cythera,
her temples crowned with flower petals,

and with her sweet perfume
she intoxicates her lords.
Anacreon (580 - 495 BC)

An inconspicuous little sprayer wanted to be picked up and used today. What came out was divine.

I am currently enamored with rose scents, and this discovery today is yet another heavenly addition to my rose cravings.

Freshly sprayed, the mist, dewy and godlike, settles on my skin and drives me into true rapture. First and foremost, I am enchanted by a burst of citrus, which only much later transforms into spicy lemon balm.

Quickly, the rose joins in, determined to dominate the scent progression, unwilling to retreat, and that is just fine! A beautiful rose, for me it has a yellow, strong, sunny color, so creamy and delicate.

Balsamic undertones create the music, providing a softness that is unmatched.

Fruitiness, apart from the lemon at the beginning, I perceive little.

The persistence of the juicy, delicate, and enticing scent encounter with the Persian rose makes me doubt whether the perfume is a must-have for me.

But the coming together of the two of us was a delightful experience for my discerning nose!
