White Rose by Floris Eau de Parfum

In the beginning this smells like rose, pure and simple, but the rose promptly disappears and I start smelling carnation (just like the one in Floris Malmaison) and transparent, slightly powdery violets that verge on leather. It’s a pretty floral scent, perfect if you want to be daintily feminine for a few hours. There’s a good bit of sillage, even after most of the floral notes have dried down to the dry, violet-suede ending.

As might be expected with a delicate scent like this, it doesn’t last very long, about 4-5 hours at most, but I did notice the violet scent on my clothes the following day. I’m not sure why this is called White Rose, since the rose was upstaged by a hoard of violets early on. If you like subtle and pretty violet scents that are not too sweet, woody or musky, White Rose is worth a try.

Blind purchased this one over the internet again.It pretty much becomes my habit now LOL.
Totally agree that this frag smells very soft & delicate. It stays close to the skin without being overbearing.i'm also agreed wth Melyhelly as this frag can get a little bit powdery on a hot weather. Well i can definitely smell the rose with a little touch of jasmine but not the violet and iris. Strangely,I also get the soft smell of white frangipani on my skin after a couple of hours which is not listed anywhere in the notes. On the drydown i can smell the trail of amber and musk which i find very lovely.

Anyone who's a big fan of roses should try this frag as it's really worth trying n having.

I love this one for its musk and amber more than anything else. It really sings in humid weather (which hardly ever happens here) when it turns sultry and sexy - in spite of its pristine name. Surprisingly, a bombshell fragrance.

White Rose does begin with a soft, floral rose but quickly turns into a candied violet. There are notes that remind me of Kenzo's Flower on some level, but it is less powdery and more floral. The violet notes linger for quite some time before turning into a light musk that disappears quietly on my skin. It is a very feminine and somewhat old-fashioned scent, by which I mean classic not musty. Perfect for garden parties and picnics and attractive to men looking for a classic lady. My only gripe is it isn't the longest lasting fragrance on my skin, though it tends to linger on my clothes.

When you spray this on,straight away you are hit with a strong white rose /white peony - it is sort of spicy nose tingling rose sensation - which may well be because of the presence of the clean and sharp iris note.

Overall it feels crisp, clean, rosy, spicy and to my nose very surprising it has a smell of the blue tin NIVEA cream I remember from my childhood, not nivea soft, but the original blue tin and it is sort of a spicy rose nivea.

Projection is non existend, fades away quite quickly on my skin and you have to press your nose to your sking to smell it.

Maybe good for layering with other clean type of scent or spritz after the shower if you want to feel clean and maybe even layer with Nivea cream itself
