TheDarkMother Report post Posted January 31, 2005 In the Bottle: Delicious roses with the herbal scent of the geranium’s leaves. My grandmother has these in her yard, so that’s immediately what it reminds me of. On Me: *Swoon* So wonderfully rose, but a much lighter blend. This is small red flowers with big, dark green leaves. This just proves that I do love roses, just not the fake scents that I’ve smelled for so long. This reminds me of gardening with my grandmother in her yard when I was little. The only problem that I have with this oil, is that I can’t get a big bottle of it! *Pout* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blood onmy hands Report post Posted April 14, 2007 (edited) This is such a beautiful single note. I wish so much that I could buy a full bottle of Rose Geranium just to wear on its own. It starts off with some of the green spiciness that I get in Kostnice and quickly dries down to a perfect, cool greenery like thick plant leaves & crisp cucumbers. The cucumber-green is paired with a sweet, delicate, rosy flower fragrance. It smells like I've rolled around in a garden - a real flower/plant smell, not a fakey floral perfume. I love this Edited March 18, 2009 by Little Bird Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edenssixthday Report post Posted August 20, 2007 Rose Geranium SN - I love this single note! It smells very similar to the rose geranium essential oil I keep on hand for bath time. It smells strongly of geraniums and is quite crisp, green, and herbal. I don't get a "rose" note at all from it, but I don't smell that in my E.O., either. I really enjoy this and am glad I got to try it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
midnight_aeval Report post Posted April 27, 2009 I received a tester of this in an eBay win and I'm really glad I'm getting a chance to try more of these SNs! In the imp this smells like clean laundry drying on a clothesline amidst blooming rose bushes. I seriously smell more of the "clean laundry" than the rose, however which is quite perplexing. It doesn't have the typical soapy smell I equate to most rose scents, but there is something that radiates CLEAN with this SN. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zankoku_zen Report post Posted November 19, 2009 On wet, I would say that this is more rose than geranium. It's like roses with a bitter geranium underneath it. As it dries, the rosiness dissipates, and I get more of the geranium, but it sort of ends up in 'clean laundry land' but it is the same geranium/clean that I love from Winter Stress Relief Elixir. LOVE IT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
