Trussardi Delicate Rose

Trussardi Delicate Rose, composed by Nathalie Lorson in 2012, is a sheer, citrusy rose that lives up to its name. People describe it as woody and floral in equal measure, most also find it citrusy, and a third notice sweetness, green and musky touches.

Yuzu and kumquat open it, a bright, slightly bitter, tangerine-like citrus, with bamboo adding a green, watery freshness. The heart is rose and jasmine, both handled lightly, with apple adding a crisp sweetness and lotus a clean, aquatic floral note that keeps the rose transparent. The base is sandalwood, cedar, woodsy notes and musk, dry and soft, which gives the scent its woody character without any heaviness.

Most wearers report moderate longevity, with a minority finding it weak, and an intimate to moderate trail, so it stays very close to the skin. It is voted overwhelmingly for daytime and mainly for summer and spring. It suits someone who wants a light, clean rose for warm weather and the office, something gentle rather than noticeable.
