Sounds test worthy…I’m always a sucker to try anything with roses. Maybe it will be nice? It is hard to say sometimes with those fruits in the description.
Maybe it will! I am not a big fan of the original.
Sounds like it’s going to be pink-heavy with a fruity emphasis and has the generic dry down.
My thoughts exactly. (Well, maybe my exact thoughts were along the lines of, “That doesn’t sound good at all.”) I think I’m done with mass-market fragrances for a while.
Probably.
Did it not occur to anyone on the marketing team that “The One Rose” is a much much much better name?
I don’t remember having even tried the original The One, so either I didn’t actually try it (unlikely) or it was seriously boring (very probable, given that the men’s version was one of the most uninteresting things I’ve ever smelled).
They were probably afraid of the Tolkien ring (no pun intended, honest!) of that…
Maybe they think bad grammar sounds hip??
I think they’re stuck with the naming convention after L’Eau The One, which is pretty darned funny translated — the water the one.
How about ‘The Rose One’?
Anyway, I HATED The (First) One.
LOL…The Rose One is absolutely perfect!
It is!
“What are you wearing?”
“Oh, you know. The rose one.”
The One Rule is this:
SOMETHING MUST BE PINK!!!
No pink pepper in this one, so it must be pink grapefruit.
Wonder what they’ll be “pinking” next …
So long as it isn’t Bvlgari Black…
Glad you are back!!!
Thanks!
This is fronted by Scarlett Johansson. The ad is ugly. Can’t wait to smell this, though
I don’t hate the ad, although not sure I love it either. She looks pretty, at any rate.
I just tried this today from one of those towelettes from an ad in Cosmo, and it actually wasn’t fruity to me. It smells almost like Stella but less salty, I think.
Interesting, I’ll have to try it — thanks!
i got a sample of this perfume in my cosmo and i’ve been looking for it ever since its awesome its a very floral sent and my husband loved it too, i cant wait to get it! and i really dont like The One either but Rose the One is Great
I’ve heard it’s much nicer than the 1st one — still haven’t tried it myself though.
When I smelled this in a magazine it smelled just like the original, but I tried it in Macy’s and I really liked it! They only had the Body Lotion to buy and the Tester to try. They didn’t have the bottles for purchase, yet. They had shipped my Macy’s the lotions but forgot to send the bottles. I really liked it and I had a chance to smell them all at the same time to compare. I’m gonna get this the day they get the bottles! ScarJo is my girl! Glad they got her!
I like it better than the original too, but still don’t love it. You should be able to buy it at Nordstrom if you’re in a rush — pretty sure they have it already.
I think its much better then the original. I hated the original and l’eau. They were both just gross & weird. All I smell w/ this one is grapefruit. Its nice but I dont need a bottle at all.
I don’t need one either.
It smells fresh and than after a few minutes I smell nothing……..
