Best masculine rose fragrance

Declaration D'Un Soir

"Toy boy | Moschino" - edgy and modern

No. 88 Cologne - old-school and complex

Voleur de Roses - classy rose-patch combo

For me it’s hands down Nishane - Nefs give it a shot you might like it!

Spice Must Flow is one you ought to try it out.

It's an old thread but i just noticed it's existance while i was browsing the threads. So i am not that in to rose notes in fragnances generaly. From green, grassland roses, rose bud, fully bloomed roses, floral, eatrhy, spicy to jammy, sweet, synthetic, pot pourri - ish (sic), dried and to powdery, dirty, liqueur - ish, dusty, sour - ish i reject all the roses that exist in the Universe. That is all!. The roses has something annoying in theis scent wich is projected negatively to my reflects and my skin. I could compare this anoying feeling the roses gives me to a cacophony in an emotional aria by a careless opera singer. It ruins the harmony of synthesis. I think it is not an easy task for perfumeurs to create a fragnance with an ingridient like rose.This concept requires delicate handling. Perfumeurs have to put hard work and use their creativity and personal technique to an exhusting level in order to manufacture an interesting rose oriented fragnance that will stand out from the others and hopefully will manage to impress the consumers. The stakes are high..

That be said i don't have a top 5 rose fragnance. I have only one that i can tolerate to smell on others without cause me headache or repulsion or negative emotions and to my personal opinion it is well composed and vary widely from the other with the same note. This would be Acteur Eau de Toilette. A bad call it is discontinued.

for me it would be Hermann à mes Côtés me Paraissait une Ombre or Comme une Evidence Homme , the second one being a gentle take on Déclaration d'Un Soir

They are a little similar but very airy, playing the rose note more on a cold, green side. Very elegant, very masculine qualities.

+1 for Rose Poivrée !

But I don't think it's being discontinued, at least it's still available on the brand website.

Onyx

I'm wearing Encens Mythique. It feels very versatile and unisex. I get hints of a dry rose, subtle oud, and something akin to dryer sheets. It's oddly clean and beautifully filthy, simultaneously. I'd love to smell this on a man.

"Join The Club - More Than Words | XerJoff" and Le Cri

Mfk Oud Satin Mood edp, Luna Ath or Promise EFM. Have fun.

My top 5 combo Oud/Rose:

Malik Al Taif (Areej Le Doré)

Al Hareem (Sultan Pasha Attars)

Oud Maximus Autumn '19  (Bortnikoff)

Oud Galoré (Chris Collins)

Musk Rose (The Rising Phoenix)

Others top:

Phi un Rose de Kandahar (Tauer)

Rose 31 (Le Labo)

Portrait of a Lady (Frédéric Malle)

Lyric Man (Amouage)

I'm not into rose scents nor florals in general, however what I've read about Signature Halfeti Black Rose interested me enough that I've got a sample on order. No matter what, though, the 4 ounce bottle is awesome.

It's hard to pick one. I think there are a lot of great ones.

1. "Oud Ispahan | Dior"

2. Nebulous

3. Grand Musk

4. Lyric Man

5. "Le Vestiaire - Tuxedo | Yves Saint Laurent"

6. Octavian

7. Portrait of a Lady Eau de Parfum (I do think leans feminine)

- Noir Patchouli Histoires de Parfums

- One Man Show 24K Edition Jacques Bogart

- Amor Cacharel

Radical Rose Eau de Parfum is stellar. In my opinion, it is the pinnacle of rose–patchouli fragrances.

Velvet+ is pretty nice, too.

Portrait of a Lady Eau de Parfum and Déclaration d'Un Soir without any doubts.

Did someone try Rose & Cuir ?

It's an interesting rose without rose and despite it's classified in women categorie, it's more masculine than feminine. My husband, a big bald man with a beard, borrows my bottle regularly and he doesn't smell like a Delina princess 😄

I don’t smell other dudes, but of my collection the winners are:

1) Portrait of a Lady

2) Alexandria 2

3) Zaharoff Halfetti Black Rose - That stuff will put the hair back on your chest!  

Received a sample and tested - have to agree. Zaharoff marketing hype aside, it's a really nice, dark rose scent and very masculine. Will be getting a bottle.

For me:

Rose 31 Eau de Parfum (my favorite, especially layered with the matching body lotion... the entire line up is fabulous... shampoo, shower gel)

9 Arcana Rosa

Rosa

Santal Royal Eau de Parfum

Toy Boy
