Diabolo Rose by Les Parfums de Rosine

*****
Year: 2007

Notes: Sicilian bergamot, peppermint, tomato leaf, yerba mate, lily of the valley, rose, peony, amber, sandalwood, musk
Diabolo Rose is a fresh, moist and luscious green rose scent. The combination of peppermint and rose is both refreshing and unique, with lush herbaceous aromas weaving in and out of the two main accords.

One can also discern distinctive olfactory similarities with L'Ombre dans L'Eau by Diptyque (especially with the interplay of the tomato leaf, citrus and rose) but Diablo Rose isn't as astringent as Diptyque's offering – with the help of the peppermint, it's significantly softer by comparison.

Although its longevity and sillage could have been much better, Diabolo Rose is still worth investigating.
