since you are not a rose person, try to get your nose on Baie Rose 26 by Le Labo, the best rose scent imo and i'm not a rose fan myself

@wagsbass I have heard so many great things about Baie Rose 26. Now I definitely have to track down a sample!

I appreciate your review, but as you said, these fragrances are designed to be layered. It just so happens that a few of them are suitable stand-alone fragrances, but it's unreasonable to EXPECT them to be. They are what they are, nothing more, nothing less, and it only seems fair to judge them accordingly. So, "It smells too simple" doesn't seem like a reasonable criticism. If you just don't think a scent is done well, that's a different story.

you remind me of people who don't like eating salmon ! ;)

I like blue agava, but it was just pleasant...nothing mind blowing.

oh, just fyi, bluebells are like gardenias, no oil extraction. wild bluebell is a simulated floral! also if you're interested, we also reviewed it and it's also our favorite jo malone!

i'm pretty sure they're actually edts or high concentration colognes, we get way too long out of them for them to be edc. they do say cologne on them though, so it's odd. - q

I have a sweet tooth so i got a small bottle of Blue Agava and Cacao. Vanilla & Anise is an interesting combo but not my thing. I wish the top notes of Pomegranate Noir lasted longer, the mid notes smell weird.
