Genvieve Michael Storer for women

Rose and hyacinth were what I thought that I was mainly smelling in Michael Storer GENVIEVE. According to the manufacturer's card, these are the primary notes:

Bulgarian Rose
Rose de Mai
Desert Lily Flower
Nuances of Apple and Pear
Galbanum
Sandalwood
Japanese musk
civet

So I gather that the galbanum is the source of the greenishness I perceive, though it does not smell like heavy-duty galbanum (as in classic chypre) in this composition.

Anyway, this is a lovely rose perfume. It's a different sort of green rose perfume than the usual rosebush-in-a-blender ones. The apple and pear notes remind me a bit of Hermès JARDIN SUR LE TOIT. But here the rose is much more important than the fruit peelings. The lily and the civet seem to be adding complexity and a touch of darkness to this creation.

Now three for three, I'm prepared to make a bold induction on Michael Storer: the guy knows how to make fine floral perfumes! Good longevity and pretty big sillage.

On me it's sour fruity at the beginning, then come some plastic notes and some notes that I can't describe. the lasting power is very good. It's not overpowering and very pleasant and unusual. So if you don't want to smell like everyone just try this.
Upd: this one reminds mу a little of discontinued Fragonard's Lune de Miel. The same beautiful sour fruity shade.

The perfumer’s description makes this sound as if it is a classic perfume in the image of Chanel or Guerlain, but nothing could be further from the truth. In this case, that’s a good thing. Genvieve starts out strong and discordant, like a mixture of galbanum and new plastic shower curtain, but quickly settles into a “dirty” rose with fruity notes, gourmet rhubarb pie and, most of all, a powerful animalic base that’s probably mostly an excellent synthetic civet. It’s not a fecal, indolic animalic scent, but rather more like the odor of the fur of some small, sun-warmed golden-brown creature lying in a bed of roses. The drydown is the animalic scent along with caramel notes, and it lasts and lasts, especially on clothing. Sillage is excellent. The scent seems to develop a little differently each time I wear it, probably depending on weather conditions. This is a rose perfume that I can wear and love.
