‘The fruity and sparkling elixir is an enchanting accomplice, evoking a mischievous and playful smile. Its delicate rose petals take you on an intoxicating waltz, carried by a reassuring everlasting flower. Then, its caress and velvety whispers embrace and delightfully envelop me. Inviting me into a familiar dream, while hinting at the promise of a gentle and peaceful awakening.’ – Superfumista
This has become my favorite Superfumista and I had to get a bottle after my initial sampling. Infra Rose is one of the most fun, invigorating rose fragrances that I’ve come across; perfect for Spring/Summer days.
The rose in Infa Rose is extremely vibrant. Red, pink, yellow and green hues mix and everything feels bright and vivid. It leans to the fruity side with lychee, but this is not an Oud Satin Mood; it’s a lot fresher of a wear.
In particular, soapy. There’s a strong soapy, dewy, wet petals vibe that really doubles down on the Sunny vibes. It’s sparkling like a rose lemonade, citrussy in that super oily citronellol-lemon way, fruity and neon-colored. That soapiness grows into an airy fresh laundry musky base, but you still retain the vibrancy of the rose throughout.
It does have a sweetness and the style is completely mass-appealing, but the quality of the rose shines and it never becomes a nondescript messy mix like we often get in sweet-fruity-rose designer fragrances for example. It’s uplifting, quirky and I’m definitely get some more wears out of it before the colder seasons. A must-try for rose lovers.
