Rose Pivoine by Parfums de Nicolaï, 1998

This is best rose you can wear on weekends, every day even when you go to buy groceries, also perfect scent for night if you go out relaxed to some nice cosy place, So relaxed, gentle, beautiful and simple rose, reminded me of some luxury shower gel, in a positive way, and has the same feel as rose in No 18. Chanel

To be worn when innocently desirable, utterly adorable and without underhand schemes. Fresh but homely.

One of the freshest rose scents I've tried. It smells like walking in a rose garden. So many men on these boards ask what rose scents are unisex; this is one of them. It's a fresh, spring/summer fragrance that is rose centered. It opens with an innocent burst of bergamot and mandarine; the heart is a clear, clean rose/peony blend which sits on top of an ambergris/oakmoss base that is very gentle and doesn't detract from the general fresh rose accord apparent throughout the development of the entire scent. Excellent.

Make no mistake about it, this is a very sexy fragrance. Don't ever try it on a tester strip, go straight for testing on the skin. This, on a woman is both fragrant and elegant and has hidden depths to it. Very feminine and very alluring. Highly recommend it.

Just as an aside, I've tried this as I like rose on my skin and it changes completely and could very definitely be worn by a man. I would wear this. The very lovely lady who runs the PdN shop in London says she sells this to a lot of men.

A very nice Peony/Rose musk scent. Not one I'd rush out to buy, but very very nice indeed. A formal Greecian garden in a bottle.
