Creed Fleur de the Rose Bulgare

Fleur de the Rose Bulgare is probably the truest rose fragrance ever made. A realistic, beautiful soft pink Bulgarian rose scent with notes of chinese green tea blossom , Sicilian mandarin, Sicilian bergamot, and Italian lemon.  on a base of ambergris.

Fleur de The Rose Bulgare was made for the wife of an historically famous U.S. President, who first encountered Creed while she was on her honeymoon in Europe. When she returned, she wrote to Creed with a request for a fragrance featuring the Bulgarian tea roses she had enjoyed on her travels.  That perfume was created in 1890, howwever it wasn't until 2000 that this fragrance was made available to the public. It is still the same formula and is vaulted again!!

REVIEWS

Fragrantica - beautiful soft subtle yet pervasive and ultra-feminine scent of the truest rose, like putting your face in a bunch of fresh cut roses.

Fragrantica - I collect all Rose fragrances!  This is by far my favorite. Creed is amazing as it is but this id off the charts for me! I love the rose and tea flower opening. The citrus notes come into play and makes this a very up beat not sultry fragrance. The dry down is beautiful as well. If you are a rose lover not to have this in your collection is a crime!

Fragrantica - I recently came into a sample of this and have now worn it off and on for over a year. Every time I spray it I think, 'This has got to be the best floral green EVER!'  I absolutely love this vibrant, sharp rose. It comes out of the bottle like a greyhound let loose from the gate, and keeps on its toes for the entire day. Tea is a note that works well on me, and earl grey is a breakfast favorite. So understandingly, throw bergamot and rose in the mix and you've got yourself a tri-fecta.

Fragrantica - Over 100 years old, this perfume is, but I never found a fresher, more youthful, more exhilarating rose. This is a true rose with overtones of green tea and citruses, like sniffing a bunch of pink roses with a few drops of morning dew still on the leaves. An absolute, breathtaking beauty....A perfect, clear, still cool but warming up summer morning in a rose garden.
It is perfect for a summer day, makes me feel young, feminine, optimistic and in a mood to welcome the adventures this day will bring, a smile always on my face.  I love this so much, I actually bought a full bottle, one of those enormous 8.4 ounce bottles, and I do not intend to share it, sorry, I want it all for myself!  Men seem to love it, too, by the way.

Fragrantica - Considering this was formulated in 1859, it's outstanding. Vintage perfumes are rarely known for their lightness and delicacy, but Fleur de The Rose Bulgare is a refreshing delight. The fragrance feels unisex to me - it's tea rose, obviously, but it's not heavily floral or sweetly pretty. This is a pure, mild, green-rose scent that makes me feel like it would be a nice rosewater splash.... As a rose lover and gardener, I admire and appreciate this fragrance, especially since, like my most prized roses, it has a delightful history. I've read that it was created for a woman who became first lady,(Mrs. Edith Carow Roosevelt, I assume),and smelling this fragrance gives me more insight into her wisdom, insight, and enduring strength than any biography ever could. This fragrance is pristine, dignified, and honest, and it's impossible not to be stunned by how clear and real it smells. If you love roses, do not miss out on sniffing this work of art.
