Which Should You Buy?
This velvety rose is a divisive one: for some, it's a syrupy, gourmand delight that exudes luxury; for others, it's a harsh, heavy, and even 'sickly' concoction with an unpleasant animalic undercurrent. Test on skin before committing to a bottle.
This isn't your grandma's potpourri - it's a divisive, boozy beast. Expect a full-bodied red wine experience with prominent rose and wood, but don't go sniffing for sugary goodness; the name is a bit of a misnomer. Definitely not a blind buy unless you live for dark, intense scents.
