Bvlgari Rose Goldea Blossom Delight

Mostly the flower itself, ranging from jammy to green depending on the blend. Underneath that, like crushed leaves and cut grass, sharp with a bitter edge.

It opens on papaya, violet leaf and jasmine, moves through rose, rose leaf and lily-of-the-valley, and settles on bulgarian rose, white musk and amber.

• violet leaf: green and dewy with a cucumber-like coolness. Nothing like the sweetness of violet flowers
• jasmine: a rich white flower, heady and full. Up close it turns slightly animal, which some people love and others find too much

It lasts an average amount of time and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
