Tea Rose is a realistic floral, Rose, Green scent created for Women sometime around 1977 by perfumer Annie Buzantian.
Review
This is a ROSE fragrance. Rose, Rose, Rose. It’s almost a realistic Rose, that captures the essence of the petals, the stems, the thorns, the leaves….everything. It blends Tea Rose, Damask Rose and Bulgarian Rose with Peony, Geranium Leaves, Violet Leaves, Cedarwood, and a hint of Chamomile. It’s bright and airy and green and crisp and Rose. It has a kind of vintage-meets-modern vibe that is more vibrant and green vs ‘old’ and powdery. It feels like you’ve buried your face in a fresh bouquet of Roses while still at the farmer’s market. Or you shoved your face into a blooming Rose bush with an abundance of blooming petals. It’s got a nice intensity to it, which you wouldn’t expect from an Eau de Toilette. It feels nostalgic and realistic. It’s a great classic, honest, Rose fragrance, and is a scent that everyone who loves Rose should try at least once in their life. It’s great for any time, place or occasion, though it has more of a casual vibe than a formal one. It will work well in all seasons, but especially in the Springtime.
Inspiration
Tea Rose is a Rose fragrance that was meant to capture the essence of the entire Rose plant versus just the floral aroma.
Notes
This scent is purely Rose. It opens with a blend of Tea Rose, Bulgarian Rose and Damask Rose, infused with a hint of Peony. Geranium Leaves, Violet Leaves and Cedarwood add an earthy and green element that give the scent that realistic vibe. A hint of Chamomile plays up that subtle spiciness that real Roses can have. This is the ultimate Rose fragrance.
