Old fashioned dressing table rose-scented facial powder
comes to my mind after I tried Rose de Siwa, by MDCI Parfums, on. It smells
really similar to the springtime limited edition of Paris by Yves Saint
Laurent, rose water, or the rose aspect of several L’Occitane’s rose/peony
themed scents.
To my nose, the scent develops rather linearly, the only
difference between the newly applied perfume and 3-4 hours after, is that the
rose/peony combo smells more predominant to my nose while the cosmetic-y
powdery notes becomes less present.
The final dry down, is the best aspect of the scent to me,
because there is this vaguely creamy woody note mingles perfectly with the rose
aspect, and I do love a rose scent to have some depths.
Overall, Rose de Siwa by MDCI Parfums is a lovely
rose-themed scent which shows the soft, warm, even a bit balm-ish aspect of
rose.
However, will I recommend it? The answer a definite ‘No’.
Largely due to its price, for the same amount of money, you could’ve found 3-4
bottles of lovely rose scents of similar quality from perfume brands.
