In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Bellagio is a classic floral built around lily of the valley, jasmine, carnation and rose, with ylang-ylang adding warmth and sandalwood softening the base. It opens fresh and floral, then settles into a musky, lightly powdery woody dry-down. This reads as a traditional feminine scent rather than a modern sugary flora…

Reviews →

Roos & Roos I Love My Man pairs plush Bulgarian rose and centifolia rose with a noticeable kick of spicy carnation. Sweet tonka bean and smooth sandalwood anchor the floral top, creating a warm, powder-dusted profile. It fits cool autumn evenings when you want a rich, vintage-leaning rose with substance.
