Russian Rose Otto

This rose feels velvety and deep rather than sharp, like real petals crushed in your hand. The bottle itself is heavy and elegant on my dresser, and two sprays lasted a full workday.

The rose here smells dewy and green rather than sugary, and it lasts a good five hours on my skin before fading to something soft. The bottle itself is heavy glass and looks lovely on my dresser.

I've worn rose perfumes for years and this one actually smells like a real garden rose instead of the soapy stuff I'm used to. The dry-down keeps that petal softness for hours without turning sharp on my skin.
