Rosa d'Inverno by Hilde Soliani Profumi

*****
Year: 2013

Notes: rose, Damascus rose, English rose, plastic, steel

Comment: Rosa d'Inverno is part of the Gli Invisibili Collection
Rosa d'Inverno is inspired by the smell of soft plastic dolls, from the 1960s, which were usually rose-scented to mask their synthetic odour.

Commencing with a rose-infused aroma of plastic and steel, it's initially astringent but soon settles down. With a structural simplicity, this artificial blend of plastic, rose and steel intermingle with each other on an even keel. Possessing moderate sillage and average longevity, the late-drydown reveals nuances of a dusty electrical coil cooling down.

While it's an interesting olfactory experience, it's not a fragrance that one would wish to own.
