Atomic Rose is a very sweet and appealing interpretation of rose. It opens with bright white florals of hedoine and jasmine, accompanied by pink pepper and bergamot before a sweet and soft rose takes over as the leading note. There’s a hint of vanilla on top of an ambery base, however the rose remains the main star and doesn’t change all too much throughout the life of the scent. I don’t find the rose to smell very realistic, it comes across more synthetic however I find this with the majority of notes in Initio’s releases. It’s a very pleasant fragrance if you enjoy a sweet overdose of rose however there isn’t too much else going. It’s a simplistic scent that’s easy to wear, however lacks character and doesn’t warrant the high price tag unfortunately.
Opening slaps you in the face with a bouquet of roses and the dry down begins to introduce a peppery undertone that results in an amazing fragrance. Leaning feminine but guys can definitely pull it off
