Roses and More centers on a timeless floral profile highlighted by rose, sparkling aldehydes, and bergamot at the top. Soft jasmine anchors the heart, while a foundation of warm amber and vanilla creates a smooth, lightly sweet base.

Main Accords
7 MAPPEDThe accords begin with prominent rose, bright citrus, and crisp aldehydic notes that produce a clean, soapy opening. As the initial sparkle fades, the floral and white floral accords step forward to create a rounded bouquet. Over several hours, fresh facets give way to a gentle amber accord, leaving behind a warm, lightly sweetened floral dry-down.

Fragranxe Review
EDITORIAL“Roses and More by Priscilla Presley Editorial Fragrance Review”
The initial spray of Roses and More by Priscilla Presley introduces a brisk, vintage sparkle. Sparkling aldehydes lift the composition immediately, creating a clean, soapy effervescence reminiscent of classic twentieth-century perfumery. Alongside the aldehydes, tart bergamot and sweet mandarin orange provide an invigorating burst of fresh citrus perfume charm. Rather than presenting a heavy, brooding rose immediately, the opening feels buoyant, airy, and refreshingly clean.
As the citrus notes settle, the floral core emerges with clarity. Classic rose takes center stage, but it does not stand alone. Jasmine weaves through the petals, smoothing any sharp edges and providing a creamy, white floral balance. Into the dry-down, the crisp floral personality mellows considerably. Golden amber and smooth vanilla establish a cozy foundation. The vanilla remains restrained rather than gourmand, providing just enough warmth to give the rose an ambery glow.
Over the course of wear, the fragrance transitions smoothly from aldehydic freshness to a gentle, balsamic warmth. In the first hour, the aldehydic and citrus accords dominate, offering an uplifting, sunlit aura. By the third hour, the rose and white floral elements sit comfortably at the forefront. Finally, the amber accord anchors the remaining floral traces, creating a subtle skin scent that feels comforting without becoming sticky or cloying.
Performance is solidly moderate, backed by community votes where 13 users report 3 to 6 hours of wear, and 8 note long lasting power. The sillage leads in the moderate category with 19 votes, creating an arm's length aura that feels polite and refined. Because 40 voters favor daytime over 18 night votes, and 36 vote for spring alongside 21 for fall, it excels as a daytime office perfume, a weekend brunch scent, or a casual transitional staple.
This fragrance suits fans of classic florals who appreciate the nostalgic, soapy qualities of nineties perfumery and want a dependable daytime floral. Enthusiasts of fresh, ambery rose blends will find plenty to enjoy. Conversely, those seeking a sugary, ultra-modern gourmand or a dark, woody rose should skip it. Anyone sensitive to aldehydes or expecting a singular, soliflore rose should also look elsewhere, as the citrus and amber play prominent supporting roles.
Roses and More delivers a well crafted, vintage-leaning floral profile at an accessible price point. While its longevity can vary depending on skin chemistry, the pleasing interplay between sparkling citrus, gentle rose, and warm amber makes it a worthy addition for collectors. If you enjoy bright, nostalgic florals with understated warmth, tracking down a bottle is well worth the effort.

Dupes & Alternatives
COMMUNITY DUPESCOREWhile direct dupes are uncommon due to its specific late nineties styling, fans of Roses and More often appreciate Elizabeth Arden True Love for its soft, powdery floral character, though True Love leans more powdery than ambery. Yves Saint Laurent Paris offers a much bolder, violet-heavy rose with enormous sillage compared to the intimate citrus warmth here. For a lighter, soapier floral rose without the amber base, Cabotine Rose provides a greener, fruitier alternative.
