Constructed with typical Rosine refinement, Rose Flamenca accents the rose heart with cooling, airy, orange blossom and successfully integrates the jasmine (a note that can easily overpower). An ideal summer weather wear youd think except that despite a liberal dousing, this struggles to be audible.

I searched the pyramid for what might account for this harsh, chemical that I was smelling in the opening The pyramid was no help there was nothing in it that could account for the sharp edge. Then I read Viberts (now missing) review and he pretty much nailed it turpentine and camphor. There it was turpentine and it took fifteen minutes for it to develop into something else into something tolerable: a rich and fully dramatic rose accord that is lightly sweet and totally engaging. The heart of the fragrance is hugely rose. A Georgia O'Keefe rose augmented by jasmine and fig leaf that fill out and provide a white border and a green frame to the exuberant rose. Im not a huge fan of rose, but I enjoy this rose / jasmine / green combination, and it holds on to my skin providing good sillage for a more than adequate length of time. The semi-sweet base sandalwood and white musk moves in to center the entire fragrance. Rosa Flemenca is a dramatic fragrance whose edginess could easily have gone over the top but it doesnt: It is successfully filled with drama, passion, and movement. Its ingeniously assembled and well named. (Edit of 22 November 2008 review.)

oo I love this one! warm, rich & sunny blend of orange blossom & rose. not too sweet or high pitched, it's well-rounded & full in flavor, yes a little more sheer than I like.. but it's so lovely & comforting a smell to me so I just spritz a lil more often!

Notes: Orange Blossom, Bergamot, Petitgrain, Jasmine, Rose, Fig Leaf, Sandalwood, Benzoin, White Musk

As other reviewers have mentioned, this is indeed a warm, lovely rose. It's definitely not the typical sweetness and delicacy of an English summer tea rose. First impression is a bit spicey and active...the oranges and jasmine give it some body. Soon enough though, the sandalwood and musky notes take hold and set up the warm background for the rose to slowly smolder...in Andalusia, in the baking sun, on a midsummer afternoon. Lovely!

Strangely enough, I HATE this when I first put it on. There's a single, overpowering sweet note at the beginning that reminds me of either Obsession or Poison. But once the overpowering first note dies away, it just smells really, really good, like the real garden rose named Tiffany. It reminds me of Rosine's Rose d'Ete in that it is a very ripe rose scent, without the lighter approach of Ecume de Rose or Zest de Rose. If you like a straightforward, natural, floral rose, you'll like this.

Very bright, warm and sunny interpretation of Rosine's rose theme, this time with a more Mediterranean flavour thanks to jasmine, orange blossom, neroli and citrus notes. This one makes me want to drink sangria and wear flame-coloured roses in my hair!

Rosa Flamenca is a mid-summer bouquet of radiant, multi-colored roses with overtones of orange blossom and honeysuckle. It is said to contain benzoin, which may account for the magical oceany breeze this scent conjures. Rosa Flamenca is absoluely beautiful and uplifting. My favorite Rosine - and I love Rosines.
