   |  One of the top five roses IMHO - very lovely scent11 August 2009 |
  | A lovely tea-rose scent that works far better for me than Hammam Bouquet and smells more contemporary. Personally, I find this more unisex than feminine. [Original submission date: 24 November 2008] 26 June 2009 |
  | A light fresh rose that is a delight in the warmer months. It doesn't stay on my skin long but is a classic beauty. 21 March 2009 |
 | This is an excellent and powerful tea rose scent. Despite the 8 ingredients listed, my nose can only distinguish this one ingredient. Very feminine and a little goes a very long way. Odd that it is named Elisabethan Rose, in that the tea rose did not arrive in the UK until the late 18th century and didn't flourish there until the mid-late 19th century. The name connotes that it was a scent in existence during the reign of Elizabeth I, but could not have been. Perhaps it's named after another "Elisabeth." Wonderful in any case as soap, lotion, powder, as well as cologne. Top Notes: Aldehydes; Geranium Middle Notes: Camomile; Violet; Rose Base Notes: Musk; Amber; Sandalwood 21 January 2009 |
 | In many respects, the English cousin of our American Tea Rose (Perfumer's Workshop). Elegant, understated, soft and sweet. Somewhat powdery in the dry-down, just as I had expected. Never overpowering or soapy, though. A superb gift for a young lady. 09 January 2008 |
   | As a rose hater, this is one of the few which are able to please me with its delicate beauty. I agree the previous review that it has a tender and shy character but it is very long lasting also. It starts softly with a lovely sweet note of rose, very transparent and young, but remains to leave a powdery trace when the rose fades, which, somehow, cause me some slightly unpleasant feelings. I would still give it 5 stars, though. 27 February 2006 |
