Rose cut is a very happy, luminous rose scent. I didn't know what to expect to be honest and I was really pleasantly surprised by this one, not as deep or darkly invasive as some high quality roses but not as throwaway and lightweight as others. It's quite unique as far as rose goes and has a wonderful boozy and fruity quality which is sweet and almost raspberry jam like which I really enjoyed and some gentle patchouli in the drydown. Nothing dominating anything else, bright and upbeat I have to say I loved it and couldn't stop smelling myself when wearing it. Don't get me wrong I found this too feminine for my tastes and couldn't pull it off myself, still the sample came in handy to give to my friend who loves rose. Ladies if you like roses you can't go wrong here.
