There is sweetness, quite a bit actually but it certainly doesnt warrant a trip to the dentist and its skillfully added so it slips in seamlessly.

When I say old lady I am 51 so I’m no spring chicken however I always associated rose fragrances with the rose hand soap in my grandmothers bathroom. It definitely leans gourmand but it has enough grounding rose and patchouli notes, and has enough weight, that it doesn't get out of control. The composition of L'Extase Rose Absolue focuses on a luxurious and “burnt” Taif rose accord, spiced at the top with black and pink pepper, before being wrapped in a creamy woody nuance of Atlas cedar.

Any person can wear any scent and make it their own, it's just sometimes I want a feminine scent, this one hits the spot and then some. Lasting power is incredible, this wears strong for over 8 hours, and the projection is good too, I can easily smell it on my person and in the air around me.

A perfume I would not be mad at my baby for remembering as one of Mummy's night-time perfumes (when I'm grand and getting ready to go to a gala, obviously). It starts with a blast of the Spicy and Smoky Taif Rose (combined with Pepper and Patchouli), the same smell out of the nozzle, then a sweet gourmandish Vanilla and Benzoin join in and it stays that way for many hours. pot pourri - a bit burnt, cherry cigars - fresh and delicious not ashy, rose jam - dark and sweet, Italian architecture - classic and gorgeous, the kind that leaves you in awe.Would've been a love but there's a strong cough syrup undertone that just ruins the whole thing for me. I will say this reminds me of my bottle of Love Chopard but for me L'Extase Absolu is actually sweeter. The benzoin adds the oriental bite and perhaps that burnt edge, and the musk gives it its beastly longevity. Blind bought 80ml because of Francis Kurkdjian, who most certainly uses magic to make his perfumes last for days, and still I will be surprised if the bottle lives to see the spring. yes, Rose Absolue is thick, sexy and sensual, with a bit of a grit and body but smooth, so smooooooth.
