Ombre Rose is one of fragrances from the last 100 years that Roja Dove believes to be the true classics of their decade. Click here to see that sampler.
Discovered this in 1995 as a sample giveaway. As a ROSE scent fan, I feel it's one of the best. It's subtle, but definitely smells like Rose. Buy a smaller vial, try it, then get larger size if you love it as much as I do. But my all time favorite Rose is : PERFUMER'S WORKSHOP "Tea Rose." But OMBRE ROSE just might beat it.. you try for yourself..
I've been meaning to try this for a long time and it is a wonderful surprise! It is a very delicate, fresh rose petal fragrance. Yes, softly feminine and just slightly spicy with a violet/cosmetic vibe, but it is not overtly powdery, like Tient de Neige nor is it cloying in any way, nor candy sweet with fruit, like raspberries. There is no trace of dried rose petals or dusty potpourri which is a turn-off for me. While it has a slightly retro quality, it doesn't really feel dated so much as very understated, soft, and sheer. Easy to wear when you prefer that your fragrance speaks quietly.
