Boy Smells Rose Load is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Jérôme Epinette. Rose Load opens with Rhubarb, Pink Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Raspberry Bloom and Rose, and dries down to a base of Papyrus, Sandalwood, and Oud. Boy Smells's Rose Load carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Divisive and bold, Rose Load is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect a potent, woody rose that's anything but subtle, polarising wearers with its unique 'pickle' or 'ashtray' nuances.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its potent projection and unique, sometimes challenging, scent profile make it less ideal for office settings or sport. However, its bold character and sensual rose-oud blend are well-suited for dates and nights out, with a moderate score for casual wear due to its distinctiveness.

About

Rose Load opens with a bright, tart burst of rhubarb and a spicy kick of pink pepper, swiftly joined by the warm, aromatic cardamom. The heart unfolds into a rich, complex rose, deepened by raspberry bloom, steering clear of anything too sweet or traditional. The dry down is a grounding blend of papyrus, smooth sandalwood, and a prominent, earthy oud, creating a 'dirty' yet intriguing finish.
