Let's talk about Rose fragrances

[Aline]

I have over 16 different rose FOs (yikes) from NG, BB, WSP, SC, SOS, Soap Supplies, and Perfumers Apprentice and I think my favorites are the SC True Rose and WSP Tea Rose. But I blend 8 of them to create a scent that is to my nose better than any one on it's own (and I add a few drops of Rose Absolute which gives depth).
The ones I did not like are BB's English Rose, WSP's Fresh Cut Roses and a bunch of SOS ones that all smelled equally yucky (including Desert Rose). SOS has a ton of rose FOs and the only ones I liked were Summertime Rose and Rose.

I have used rose petal from Camden grey (No idea if it is the same as L).

No acceleration at all, and very little discoloration. Reasonable scent retention. On its own it is a little 'grandmotherly' so i blend it in different ways.

The other one from CG I have tried is wild rose. Very nice, a bit more edgy and herbal. No A or D that I remember.
