This is such a lovely, lush, warm rose. The other notes are subtle, I think they just add warmth and depth, because this scent is rose, rose, rose. Something warm and luminous about it reminds me of Love without the vanilla, and I think if you like that one, you would like Gerda. * Editing to say after resting the perfume, this Christmassy honey is wafting up from my wrist and it's gorgeous!
