For the first few seconds I get brisk citrus laced with peppery rose and then WHAM! --- spice rack/armpit reek all the way :P *cough* This does not mesh well with my skin chemistry at all. And it's...

Take one beautiful red rose and lay it on the kitchen table. Now walk over to your spice rack, grab the cumin and the black pepper, and head back over to the rose. Shake these two spices...

I have to edit this because I think Rose Poivree is Very Provocatively Sexy. It's a bad, dirty rose. It's not for everyone but there's that sexy hot cumin note that evokes a hot passionate...

This is real life rose. This is all that surrounds real roses, including the dirt. Some of the roses are blooming, some are rotting and some are dried up. And then the spices, coriander, pepper,...

I really wanted to love this fragrance. It is unusual and daring, to be sure, and definitely not for everyone. Unfortunately, the animalic quality is just too strong - there is an overpowering...

This is badly misnamed - it should be Rose Cuminee. It smells like someone has wiped their utterly rank armpits across a block of rosewater scented Turkish Delight. After about 4 hours the cumin...

Rose Poivee smells better on my husband than I! It's ok... I don't mind. It does smell fabulous on him. Spicy and insensy with a hint of rose and citrus. I enjoyed the experience on him. On...

Oh Rose Poivree, how I love thee. What a Rose fragrance ought to be. A wild rose, growing in damp dirt. Wearing Rose Poivree is like walking through an enchanted Rose Garden. You smell the...

It takes over one hundred pounds of precious Damascus rose petals to produce just one bottle of Rose Poivrée. This is rare and beautiful. You should not deprive yourself from experiencing this...

The rose, coriander, black pepper, and vetiver are perfectly blended in Rose Poivree. Some people perceive a cumin or cumin-like note in Rose Poivree. A very dry, sophisticated skinscent that...

How to say this delicately? You are wearing a rose perfume, and then enjoy a night of passion and pleasure. The next morning you do not shower or bathe, but spritz on some more rose, and go. ...

More Poivree than Rose, by far. This is a strong pink pepper fragrance, with hints of corriander, basil, lemon, and a soft background of pink roses. The roses are weak and pale enough for the...

In garden catalogs you sometimes see roses described as having a peppery scent, such as the Cecile Brunner which I've grown in the past. This is NOT the peppery scent of a Cecile Brunner or any...
