Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Wardia
This is a divisive rose. Some folks get pure, sweet candy florals, while others find it surprisingly fruity, even detergent-like. If you're after a loud, bright rose with serious staying power, this could be your jam. It's affordable, but beware of the potential fruit bomb.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Rose De Mai
This one's a proper wild card. If you're after a true-to-life rose, not some watered-down interpretation, this might be your jam. But brace yourself - the geranium can be a bit shouty, and some find it a touch boring. A love-it-or-hate-it affair, definitely not a safe blind buy.

Occasions

Best For:

Also Works:
Date

Its bold projection and sweet, often intense character make it less ideal for office settings where subtlety is preferred. However, its strong performance and cheerful rose accord lend themselves well to casual outings and can certainly make a statement on a date, though perhaps not in black tie.
