The review
On paper, Rock Rose is a strong bet if you want Rock Rose for less.
Palermo Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Rock Rose's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $23 it costs 94% less than Rock Rose.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Palermo Perfumes publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on bergamot and pink pepper, turns to rock rose, geranium and nutmeg, and settles into labdanum, amber and cedar. That is the brief Rock Rose is working from.
Top
- bergamot
- pink pepper
Heart
- rock rose
- geranium
- nutmeg
Base
- labdanum
- amber
- cedar
Labdanum-heavy rock rose over cedar and amber, dry, resinous and quietly imposing.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
How it ranks against the other twins
Of the 3 twins of Clive Christian Rock Rose we can price, Rock Rose is number 3 on price per 100ml.
- 01 HK Perfumes Silver $89/100ml
