Adam Michael has this to say “This rose absolute is one of the sexiest intense floral absolute experiences I have ever encountered. This one opens in a rich rose-orris crossed fashion, an intense red rose sensation drenched in a floral powdery buttery lushness that shows you how rose can be so much more than the commonly available absolutes in the market place today.
There is this utterly gorgeous spiced rose jelly component here that seem to include notes of carnation (think of a really epic carnation enfleurage), PPM traces of cinnamon toast, and as such, qualities that are reminiscent to me at least of rose bourbon. I think a good classification for this scent is that of gourmand-rose as there is a definite rose-chocolate quality going on here that grows within the backbone as the aromatic develops, and of which infuses and improves all other aspects connected to this scent spectrum as it opens up properly. Keeping with the foody vibes I also pick up warm trace type vanillic play-doh tonalities and also red wine notes.
Allowing my mind to run wild I’d sum this scent profile up like this – rose and leaf made a baby with rose bourbon, they moved to an exotic country together, lived happily forever, they lived their best lives, and the union was 100X more beautiful on all fronts than if they had stayed single. This is without question an aromatic for the true rose connoisseur/ fanatics. And this is also a rose that further demonstrates why Hermitage Oils has the greatest assortment of rose aromatics ever assembled online.
Although this is unisex for sure, it’s got a masculine edge and whilst I know the conversation of layering roses with ouds is old hat, I have to say this rose oud combo is the one that provides you with a true glimpse of a floral scented heaven. Pairs together like a dream with clean wild ouds and even ouds of a skanky DNA.
Rich intense red in colour, of a pourable viscosity, related to the dog rose, so sharing similarities to my Wild Briar Absolute from the best part of a decade ago now and generally pairs wonderfully with floral, woody, spice and even fruity natural aromatics. For me this one is a 10 out of 10.”

The most unusual and edgy Rose essence I’ve ever encountered – especially in its piercing opening and powerful Heart phase:
All the gourmand nuances are on the high gear, so that the intense ringing delicious Spice tricks the brain to perceive it not as Rose at all – but indeed as a living wild pink Carnation – though dipped in patisserie butter. This fascinating absolute with a personality of tight-rope dancer (or a sword swallower) is longer lasting than many other Rose materials, and the character of the classical Rose becomes fully recognizable only in the drydown – when the Spice and Gourmand Fete calms down, yet it keeps contributing to the refreshing feel in it.
To my perfumer’s thinking, the boisterous kick of it easily alludes to a masculine spirit in whatever combination this tangy Rose will be put (feminine fragrances included).
What a brash tight-rope Dancer, in a red and embellished leotard!

Very good, powerful, raspberry gum/candy material. My favorite rose absolute so far with the Gallica fruity. I was afraid the carnation/bourbon notes would make it too dry but the raspberry sexiness completly overpower those for a grand bouquet !
