Rose Essentielle
by Bvlgari
Rose Essentielle is a feminine, delicately romantic floral perfume centered on a soft, powdery rose. It opens with a fresh, dewy rose accented by ripe blackberry, violet, and a hint of jasmine, creating a sweet yet restrained bouquet. The scent evolves into a subtle blend of warm sandalwood, musk, and a touch of patchouli, giving the rose a grounded, velvety depth. It lingers close to the skin with a moderate to long-lasting quiet sillage, making it ideal for daywear and formal occasions. The notes are incredibly well-blended, creating a refined, elegant, and timeless aroma that feels modern and sophisticated without being bold. While some find the rose slightly synthetic or the blackberry too dominant on their skin, most lovers praise its pure rose essence and graceful quiet presence. It is particularly admired for its gentle, close-to-skin wearability and elegant longevity.
