By note
Rose is the most used flower in perfumery, and it is far more varied than its reputation suggests. It can be fresh and green, powdery, jammy and sweet, or dark when it is paired with patchouli and woods.
These are the fragrances in our catalog where rose is part of the composition, for women, men and anyone in between.
How we picked. We took every fragrance in our catalog that lists rose among its notes and ordered them by how long they last and how many occasions they cover. The list shows up to 10. Prices are typical US retail prices and may differ at checkout.
