CAMEO ROSE (Bourbon French)

Part of Bourbon French's Lagniappe Oaks line, their Cameo Rose is said to contain rose, vanilla and unnamed spices. Upon first application all I can detect is the rose, their excellent soliflore scent. I await the arrival of the other notes, but alas, none appear to my nose, except a dry, peppery, cardamom-like note, which gives the rose a slight “edge.” For some, this may be enough to push it from a feminine rose to a unisex rose.

My spouse finds this to be soft, powdery, simple, and gentle. He also finds that it has good projection and gets richer as it warms. He agrees that the peppery note gives it a masculine tinge.

All four BF Rose scents (Rose, Tea Rose, Oriental Rose, Cameo Rose) are most enjoyable and all can be recommended without reservation.
