Rose Star Eau de Parfum vs No.525 Nectarine Blossom & Honey Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, to say the least, Rose Star has ignited a fiery debate. For some, it's a 'gorgeous' modern rose, for others a 'cloying', 'mediocre' mess that’s shockingly similar to cheaper options. You'll either love this or hate it, with very little middle ground.
A budget take on Jo Malone Nectarine Blossom & Honey. Eden leans harder into the peach-nectarine sweetness with a flatter honey base, trading the original's crisp green blend of fig leaf and honeysuckle for a simpler fruity-floral. Louder on first spray, shorter legs than the Jo Malone cologne.
