This could be a gateway rose scent for me. I have never been a great fan of the smell of roses--in the garden, in perfume--and I hate the taste of rosewater in cooking. That said, this winey, fruity, herbal leather scent is so well blended that I do not focus solely on the rose but more on the sum of the parts of this fragrance. Yes, there is a nod to the Gothic, but this is at heart the scent of a well groomed bon vivant. A glass of vintage wine by his side, bench-made leather shoes on his feet, sitting in an old, wood-paneled room with just a trace of musky humanity coming through the expensive soap. Yes, he may be waiting for the sun to set before he heads out for the night, but what of it? And, yes, there may be the thud of velvet-petalled roses thrown into an open grave, and why not? One has to lean into all of that to wear this scent. You may never lean back.
