Review of Rose Exaltante by aad de gids

this is a fabulous rose perfume. I've already reviewed it as I acquired it in 2016. Albert Morillas has achieved to catch the very essence of the Rose whereas there are so much Hybrids and Variations. just why the Rose is the Queen of Flowers you will get to know in spritzing this perfume. I remember at my work (I guess eight years or so ago), I passed a hallway and got greeted with the remark what is THAT for a perfume... I immediately smelled it too. it made such posh and sophisticated impression and I was immediately elevated. when I laid in bed last evening I smelled my pulse and it was as if I dived deeper and deeper into a rose, which form already has something Mystical and Labyrinthical. I imagined myself diving headfirst in a Pink to Red Hypersphere of shifting petals and the sheer graciousness of the smell. the petals shifted side by side which made the seen-unseen Depth as fluid as water. then the Citron (I guess in the damascenones) picqued scent of an unbelievably Purity and Opulence guided me into a Neversphere of Pink Red divinity and never endingness. not that I needed to glue my nose to my pulse, the perfume annexated the room immediately and for hours on end. the Laotian Oud is a mere accent here, yet indispensable as it, with the Pink Pepper, (I suspect) the Hedione and Chamomile complexisizes the Rose perfume in an original and soothing manner. a Rose notwithstanding has thorns... Animal notes, Musk (of which I never know for certain if I can smell them, the 'White Musks'), the Styrax and Powdery Notes all facilitate the Rose to shine and fashionistibly and cosmetically (Powdery Notes) endure and enliven the sensation felt, by me, and everyone involved. the Dive into the Rose is like a Dive in the Universe. as Rilke wrote: to dive in ['the Petals of Nobodies Sleep', paraphrased], without end without force just this unbelievably diaphanous as scathing as soothing Super Perfume of 'Grand Luxe Surfin'. (not surfin' as in surfing but French sur-fin, fine in unprecedented finery.) another perfume of Mizensir with Morillas' Grande Souplesse.
