The Coveted Duchess Rose is one of the most alluring perfumes I have ever worn. I personally cannot stand the smell of most rose-based scents, as the artificiality and cloying sweetness when typically blended with gourmand notes make for a wicked headache, but this one is a rare exception. It is both delicate and refreshing; undoubtedly a floral rose but the mandarin top note gives it an airy feel and the woody dry down, while noted as musky, is also curiously delicate.

For my own use, I layer this with a second perfume to create my signature scent, but it is stunning and worthy of showcasing on its own. Unapologetically sultry without being overbearing.

Not a big fan of dabber sampler but regardless the scent is gorgeous, might go ahead and get the full bottle.

This scent is my all time favorite,and now signature scent. I first found it at a fragrance boutique in Vegas and became obsessed. It was VERY hard to find in Canada until I came across Etiket and THANK GOODNESS. I make a decent living but not extravagant by any means and I don't splurge on much but this scent is one of my guilty pleasures and I'll pay for it. It turns heads where ever I go and I'm always asked what I'm wearing. They sat both men and women can wear it but I do think it's more on the feminine side. Absolutely love it!
