Completing the set is this... a fruity rose perfume. Not a concept I don’t like, a tried and tested combination, which means it has to very very good to standout. There’s enough flair and talent in the industry to create rose perfumes which are doing something different, this from Cra-yon is not one of them. If I compare to recent examples of roses that did something else I’d have to site Chronotope’s Spite or Meditorossa’s Talento. I just don’t like this, jammy jammy sweet rose, plastic thin, reminiscent of red cellophane, no real depth, but powerfully in your face! I mean to the point of screaming at you. The fruitiness goes hand in hand with a musky, rose, red berry, raspberry/strawberry tone. It’s fine I suppose if this is what you want and plenty of people maybe do, but I question it’s existence even moreso than the tiresome catalog of Montale fragrances which seem to have an audience whereas this new brand is trying to establish one based on absolutely nothing of value or originality. I’m being particularly and unusually harsh for me, but I just don’t see the point in this brands existence? I’m not someone who is ‘all about the juice.’ (...Man!) I see that there’s more to perfume than that and perhaps have not come dow so hard on other new fangled brands that seem to place more importance on social media presence, marketing and brand image. I don’t doubt the importance of these things but if the fragrances are very cookie cutter, then perfumistas worth their salt will see through it and demand more. Like I said in a previous review if even one of these hand been slightly ‘brave’ even if it was awful I might not have been so critical.
