Beautiful, a really lovely rose. I’m so pleased this one worked out! I haven’t tried the perfume and don’t know how they might compare. Anyone had a chance to sniff both?

    Yes. Just did my review on an earlier post. The EDP shot up to my top 3 list, and I got the non extrait version in a discovery set. To me it feels different, not as bright and sparkly as the extrait, a bit more floral but also gorgeous.

      I’ll check out your review, I’m so glad you let me know! I’ll have to pick up a sample, a little ore floral sounds nice.

      Thanks for even reading it! I’m really trying to refine my palette and articulate them better to this community so it means a ton that you checked it out!

    One of my favorites! I liked the Extrait more if I had to choose one. It's a lot fruitier, creamier, and denser. The EDP is also lovely but is much airier and more musky (think Fleur Narcotique style but with a different scent). The DNA is apparent in both, yet they are different enough where they aren't redundant. They only really become very similar in the late drydown. I would choose the Extrait any day though!

      Thank you for sharing!! I’ll have to pick up a sample soon!
