Description
“In 1938 Greta Garbo suddenly vanished from Hollywood.
Later the paparazzi discovered her secret hideaway:
a stunning villa in Ravello on the Amalfi Coast, overlooking
the blue of the Mediterranean, its gardens fragrant with
blooming clusters of the famous Ravello Rose.
The divine Garbo shone again all her light, having lived moments
of secret happiness with her new lover.
To this tale of love and life we have dedicated Rosa Greta.

Rosa Greta is a tribute fragrance to Greta Garbo, an American-Swedish actress that went into hiding from Hollywood in the 1930’s. She was found in a villa on the Amalfi coast in a Ravello rose garden overlooking the Mediterranean. I can definitely see where Fabrice Pellegrin was going with this creation. It really does feel like a rose garden in which you just sit smell the fresh and light roses with the exotic touch of litchi. In about thirty minutes comes out the tea, my favourite part of the fragrance, it is so smooth, calming. The opening is definitely on the feminine side, yet the drydown is completely unisex. On my skin, Rosa Greta lasts about 6 hours with moderate projection. It is a good release, but not something I could wear. The litchi can get boring quick, as it is thick and sweet, borderline overripe. Do try it though, it can be a great warmer month vacation scent.

A nice balanced perfume that’s for sure.
A great fusion of flowery and fruity notes.
The amber is coming forward in the dry down as a kind of aromatic incense like scent with the woody note underneath it. Lets say it goes from fresh to aromatic.
The flowery note turns into a distinct rose-scent balanced with the white tea aroma.
This makes this perfume not too sweet and also not too amber-like.
It is fresh by its fruity and flowery notes and keeps aromatic with amber and wood.
A perfect fusion that makes this perfume balanced and keeps it really unisex. I can imagine a woman would prefer to wear this rather than a man but there is not such a thing that’s typical male or female on a scent.
So when to wear? Definitely on warm days when you want a fresh and uplifting perfume.
A nice perfume from this great new brand.

fantastic opening of fruity rose…which disappears in 20 mins and gives way to a more generic soapy rose drydown (only a whisper at this stage). Rollercoaster ride… thrill, drop, over within few hours.

Rosa Greta is a fresh rose perfume with a fresh tea opening and a comfortable woody ambery base. It is easy to wear, the perfume keeps light and quite fresh thought out its development, with a warmer, not sweeter, nuances which appear after a while. Ambrox (woody ambery molecule by Firmenich) keeps it very radiant and cozy. Easy, enjoyable, rosy, not at all old-fashioned or oily.
