AETHER PERFUMES

ROSE ALCANE

A fresh opening blast, mainly consisting of lemons and white florals, is greeting me.  Soon an element of ginger is added, as is a rather metallic undertone, which remains present for a while.  

The drydown is a green affair, mainly rose impression that focuses of the rose leaves more than the blossoms.  The rose is a bit flat and not particularly impressive.

The base continues the gingery metallic theme, propped up with some white musks, which add depth to the whole.

I get moderate sillage, excellent projection, and nine hours of longevity on my skin.  

A bright fresh scent for summery climes, crisp and tangy, but in spite of the changes throughout the development the core notes are quite dominant and persistent, making is quite a linear olfactory experience.  It is very synthetic without being particularly creative.   The performance is very good.  Overall 2.75/5
