Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rose de Taif
This is Perris Monte Carlo's love letter to the Taif rose, a bold and unashamedly rosy affair that divides opinion. Some find it a realistic, exquisite rose, while others are put off by its sharp green and lemony facets.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Rose
If you're after a fresh, green rose that isn't afraid to be different, this is your jam. Expect an unusual, almost vintage floral that's a world away from your typical 'granny' rose.
