I dithered about getting this for ages. But finally I gave in (helped along by the recent Columbus Day sale). And I am SO glad I did. Y'all, this stuff is sublime. I love the scent of garden roses and have grown them myself, and have never found a rose perfume or oil that truly smelled like actual roses. There's alway something not quite right -- too fruity or musky or powdery or grandmotherly or.... This oil, however, is absolutely spot on: it smells exactly like a bunch of freshly cut roses (and only roses), pure and clear and sweet. The oil is moisturizing without being greasy. It absorbs quickly, and the fragrance lingers for hours, but softly; it stays close to the skin. If you like the scent of roses, you will LOVE this, and it is totally worth the splurge. Thanks Brett + co. for this wonderful product.
