Regency For Women

Regency chases Especially Escada, the modern dewy rose loved for being so soft it converts rose-sceptics. It opens fresh and juicy with a sweet pear lifted by a whisper of ambrette, exactly the bright, watery start the original is known for. The heart is all about a pink, dewy rose, kept airy and transparent by aquatic water notes and a creamy ylang-ylang, so the flower never turns heavy or old-fashioned. It dries down into a clean, soft musk. Compared with the Escada, this version pushes the watery-pear freshness a little louder and the rose reads slightly less refined, with the musky base feeling a touch sharper. Longevity is moderate, much like the original which itself wears soft and close. A flirty, dewy spring-and-summer rose that captures the easy, girly charm at a budget price.
