I have the original PS rose, I got it to wear as bridesmaid for my sister’s wedding and it was perfect. Light, lasted all day, and a classic rose scent perfect for the occasion! Im not wearing it so much at the minute though, it really is a spring/summer scent but I’d definitley want to smell this new one watermelon aside! you never know! I quite like the yellow rose idea!

As I said above, I heard good things about the original, but never tried it. My local Neiman Marcus has a few Paul Smith scents, but not that one. I’ll find it some day!

The original PS Rose is definitely on the lighter side, but for me that was a plus. Some roses (like the Bulgari rose) start well enough, but then can grow really heady, harsh and cloying on me, to the point of suffocation. PS Rose had rose, magnolia, green tea, violet, musk and cedar, and was a quiet, fresh, green rose that I could wear all day without getting sick of. This summer rose lost me at the watermelon.

I like violet a lot, but have found that I don’t like the predominately rose-violet combos, like Drole de Rose and Lipstick Rose. Violet seems to be used in the fruitier-style roses? Anyway, not my thing.

No violet for me, that note just kills perfumes for me.

The original Paul Smith rose is watery and bland to my nose, so not looking forward to this one, better off buying rosewater from an Asian grocer I think.
