Rose Prick

I get the many varieties of rose in the opening, a little bit candy or strawberry Fruit Roll-Up, but the realness of rose is there. Not a grandma scent. In the drydown there is Bounce drier sheets and the smell of static electricity. Unique, close to the skin, masculine, intellectual, calm. Am I detecting the tiniest amount of tobacco leaf? Not sweet enough for me as a woman.

Don't let the pink bottle fool you. If you are a man looking for a rose scent, give this one a try. A rose that is spicy, creamy, and addictive. Applying gender to fragrance is a product of 50 years of marketing. A great fragrance can be worn by anyone. And to me, this is a great fragrance.

You have to be a fan of powdery rose to love this scent. I am and I ADORE the fragrance. There are those who will say that it smells like 'old lady' but I find the scent to be a powdery yet spicy rose. There is a hint of greenery in the opening that fades to soft spicy goodness. I will be reaching for this one often. Absolutely gorgeous.

Absolutely beautiful...I was afraid it would be overpowering but to my surprise it is beautiful. Soft. Feminine. Will be amazing in the spring/summer months...

A new lovely take on Rose. Floral and fresh and Green!

At 1st sniff of Tom Ford's Rose Prick, has done it again, another hit! However this is not for the timid nor is this for someone who loves Chloe or anything remotely like Chloe! This is a very green earthy rose that have notes of patchouli, and a very adult rose, something alluring. The top almost bites with something sharp and green like vetiver, but then comes in the rose blooming in your face after you get past the almost blasting rose the patchouli comes to ground and hold it all together. I have a feeling this is great on man's skin if he's looking past the perfect pink bottle. For a woman she should dare to not be mainstream rose!
