Love at first sniff, I bought on the spot.
This is a hidden gem fot me as I loooove rose and citruses. Very natural smell and quite affordable with designer prices. One of my top summer daytime scents.
It opens with a blast of citrusy notes and specifically with tones of fresh lemon, intensive grapefruit and mild bitter orange. After that comes to the surface a strong & dominant lemon vervena note with faint fir balsam and intensive rosemary. Some minutes later I get the beautiful fresh rose which feels exactly like rose water with every natural quality of it. It feels just as you sprayed yourself with a nice rose water. At this point there is a very faint/shadow leathery vibe back somewhere at the background and a very very tiny trace of natural soapness from the rose. You must focus hard to get it otherwise it’s almost invisible in the air. This is NOT a soapy rose but a fresh, natural, “green” rose with citruses. Then comes the woody notes along with mild freesia. Jasmine is almost invisible, a ghost. I don’t get moss. At the late drydown there are traces of labdanum and vetiver. In the air you get mainly lemon & rose.
If you love fresh lemony notes and fresh rose give it a try. Performance is moderate overall but I’m still evaluating it. I’ll update with info if it is neccesary the next days.
Edit
This scent feels like Hermes Jardin line, Happy Clinique, etc etc.. very refreshing and uplifting for high temperatures.

citrus and rose in the top then a bit herbal/balsamic, woody and dry in the base like a chypre but without the sharpness

Rosissimo opens – no, explodes – with a burst of tangy citrus; sweet-sour and a bit bitter, reminding me of dish-washing liquid. Not the best of associations but not unpleasant either.
It becomes a bit more green and woody (but still intensely citric) when it’s a little less wet, but it’s still very difficult to smell the floral notes in this. When I do get floral, it is the jasmine that is more prominent than the rose. Perhaps this was intentionally done since this was marketed for men.
There’s not much development on me, but towards the end it does develop a kind of mossy wetness and an earthiness that is quite pleasing and provides some depth to it. It matches the citrus quite well, I must say.
While I wish it was a bit more impressive, it’s quite a nice slightly woody, citrus-y fume. Rosissimo has a sparkling brightness about it that is rather cheerful, but not excited, just a sober happiness.
It says it’s a cologne for men, but I found this incredibly easy to wear and very much unisex. The freshness in this fume definitely contributes, along with the fact that leather isn’t exactly prominent here.
This lasted around 4.5 hours on me, with mild projection.

This s a good citrus scent. Very lemony with light spices.
The rose note is very light in the opening and is dificult to detect but in the drydown is more noticeable and prominent.
Longevity and sillage are moderate.
Good scent, better for summer or spring.
I like it.
scent: 6/10
longevity: 6/10
sillage: 6/10

The first note which I noticed in Les Parfums de Rosine ROSISSIMO was not rose but petit grain! In fact, the entire composition is quite green and bursting with citrus, to the point where the floral components–rose and jasmine–are not easy to detect. One thing is clear: ROSISSIMO is definitely *not* packed with rose scent, as the name seems to suggest.
ROSISSIMO is marketed to men, so perhaps the rose has been minimized for that reason. Probably the name is going to deter many people from trying this and will also disappoint true rose aficionados. Nonetheless, the composition itself is quite likeable, provide that one enjoys bracing and green and natural-smelling fragrances. The style is similar to some of the greener offerings in the Miller Harris line.
Certainly this is a very nice, slightly woody, citrus-green cologne-type scent, what with the verbena and the fir tree and the herbs and the vetiver. Tree moss is listed (not oak moss), perhaps because this was launched only in 2010–post IFRA havoc… but it smells quite nice in this composition, in contrast to many of the substitution failures of evernia furfuracea for prunastri in disastrous reformulations.
I have seen (at another site) that far more men than women have bottles of this composition, but it is 100% unisex.

This is supposedly a male rose fragrance but also perfectly wearable by women. Opens with abundant citrus notes upon which you start smelling the rose and other flowers (prob freesia, a personal favourite).
In the drydown you notice the woodsy notes and probably also the oakmoss.
I’d recommend this to guys who want an entry level rose fragrance that is not too noticeably different. Probably not enough rose for the rose lover.
