Diabolo Rose by Les Parfums de Rosine

Aalia

The mint is momentary but so marvelous! This special, unique, combo of top notes sparkle, and dazzle my mind and nose. For once I can say I have found what I consider a "happy scent".

The bergamot adds a lively feeling, not a citrus note, but a vibrant touch. Once the top notes fade off, there is resounding rose and petulant peony. The rose is slightly sticky or resinous, but made airy and lighter via the addition of tomato leaf and lily of the valley. The tomato leaf is prominent, the lily of the valley shy..and the tea...is a healthy green or white tea. It has been steamed strongly with young leaves plucked right off the bush. The herbacous, but soft, tea note, and dewy tomato leaf, interact, keeping the scent fresh as spring and sunny as summer for hours. The tea note also reacts with the rose, so well; an inviting and intriguing mixture the two make. The sandalwood, amber, and musk, quietly play in this enormous and elegant garden. So many contrasts of form and flower here, fantastic!

I thought, why would they call it Diabolo Rose? Is there something dark and mysterious in it? No, it was named Diabolo, because of the parisian drink which includes mint syrup and lemonade. Yes, it's very fresh and feminine, gentle, fresh, tomato leafy.. I keep thinking that it isn't quite my style, but I can't deny that it's unique and very interesting perfume, very original as well. I think that it's the fragrance you fall in love with time or certain season, because my relationship with it is complex- I like it, but I don't love it, but I find it interesting and original.

At first it's very fresh and I really feel the rose, citruses, tomato leaf and mint that smells like peppermint from my garden, I often make my tea more fancy by adding few leaves to it. But it won't stay forever, half an hour and it's over. I'm with tomato leaf surrounded by roses. I have a very complicated relationship with tomato leafs or smell of tomato in general, I even don't like to eat fresh tomato's (but I do Love ketchup and tomato flavored crisps and I bake tomato's with eggs for breakfast sometimes). Here I smell sometimes tomato flavor that reminds me of those crisps (it must be this heavenly saltiness in it) and makes me hungry right now, and it's 12 am.
So this is how it is- I sit in a room with fresh rose bouquet in a vase and I am starving for tomato crisps! Might be funny but I'm definitely going for some tomorrow. That's my story.
P.S. I edited this review, but I've fallen in love with this stuff fast.

If you searching a wonderful refreshing/cool spring and summer scent Diabolo Rose is the perfect one.
I also think the name don't match really but it's not a problem because the scent itself is so wonderful.
The opening is so fresh and floral you smell the mint and it's so cool,you also smell the pretty rose and it's aqueous.
Later it becomes a bit softer and reminds me bit at chloe chloe edp.
It's sad that the scent last not such a long time after two hours i smell the scent only from near.
Diabolo Rose is really feminine and so fizzy also a bit spicy,the advertisement poster shows perfect how the scent smells,it's like roses in mint water.
This fragrance is perfect for all Occasion and it smells luxurious/ natural and not synthetic.The Bottle is also so great and cute and the colors of the drawstring match to the fragrance.I can't wait to get a big bottle of it.

Diabolo Rose is not a suitable name for this chameleonic perfume. Chameleon rose? Definitely a rose, but - diabolo?
But let me explain.
At first - a powerful, green,sparkling rose, slightly oily, a little arrogant, majestic in her self assurance and belief that each of her centifolia petals is perrrrfect.A Cat Rose! Scratches you with a perky tomato leaf....
Then Diabolo unfolds as a thick, yellowish Bulgarian rose oil. You can definitely smell the peony, that lost all it`s spring freshness under the weight of the rose oil - it`s dripping from the peony, from a defeated tomato leaf and already completely suffocated the lily of the valley, that showed up just for one tiny minute and was smothered by this oily abundance.
In the base it is a lovely rose petal tea, not very strong, with a dollop of sandalwood oil.
As much as I was interested in a Diabolo rose, it left me a bit confused.
Must try it again....
