Coming up Roses – 3 Rose Note Perfumes to Try Right Now

I have developed a minor obsession with roses that  started about a year ago when I received a floral arrangement that was so fragrant that it filled my apartment with an overwhelming aroma of awesomeness. Since that bouquet, I have received similar arrangements but they weren’t as fragrant…this led to my discovery that roses genetically modified to have big, beautiful blooms are often not very fragrant. I don’t think the trade off is worth it. Anyway, my quest to have all things rose scented led me to Marshalls in the Home Goods section where I sniffed out and bought several rose scented candles. My favorite of this purchase was Kenneth Turner, Rose.  My obsession has now turned to rose note perfumes —  here are the ones I’m currently loving…

Base notes of white wood and amber give Rosabotanica a seductively sweet dry down that last for over four hours.
