Rose Opulente Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier for women

I am a huge rose fan. Late May and June in the UK are when the roses bloom and this is when I love to wear this beautiful soliflor, which smells like a plush deep pink tea rose.

Big quality rose scent, velvety and pure. Very plush, but one dimensional and a tad dull.
I used up my spray sample but it has no pizzazz so I won't be buying more.

The opening of MPG ROSE OPULENTE is perhaps the best of any rose fragrance I have smelled in recent history. Something about the clean green notes moderates the rose while still allowing it to retain its beautiful identity. After a few minutes, I detect a certain darkness--not sure what the notes are--which tempers the rose in the opposite direction. The drydown is my least favorite part of the development, as the fruits begin to have a slight wilting effect on the petals. But still the rose manages to persevere with some integrity.

Although I am not really shopping for a new rose perfume (I already have a big bottle of Guerlain AA ROSA MAGNIFICA), I do so love to test them! I would say that ROSE OPULENTE is one of the most wearable that I have found. It is very much a rose-centered perfume, but somehow it does not seem old fashioned, grandmotherly, or better suited for a lingerie drawer. I like this particular rose fragrance a lot and might even feel comfortable wearing it beyond the perimeters of my home. (-:

A bit sharp at the opening, must be the green notes. But softened fairly quickly to a pleasant rose fragrance. It's not overly heavy as some rose perfumes can be. I don't think it's super original but is worth trying by those looking for a primary note rose fragrance. Rose stays front and center throughout the whole life of the fragrance. I find the amber gris very retiring.
