TOMBSTONE His Lordship's Backyard Roses opens with a stark, bitter flash of green galbanum and bright bergamot. It feels like stepping into a damp, overgrown garden right after a heavy rain storm. As it develops, a realistic Turkish rose emerge, wrapped in the sour greenness of vine and the dusty texture of orris root. The base settles into a heavy, dark soil tincture mixed with sharp patchouli and oakmoss. This is not a pretty, clean florist rose. It is a wet, muddy, earthy scent designed for spring and autumn damp weather. It suits collectors who appreciate gothic, green, and soil-heavy perfumes rather than sweet or clean florals. A sample is highly recommended before buying a full bottle due to its damp earth character. Show less
