rappaccini's garden

notes: A crisp, pale, almost translucent rose dusted by moonflower and midnight dew.

in the vial: ehh. a light and fresh rose (nothing deep or sexy here) with a hint of boring.

wet on skin: im not quite sure what moonflower smells like, but maybe its adding the sweet and innocent feel to this blend.

dry down: it gets a little indolic and stinky, but later turns very soft and pretty. it smells like a rose scented baby product.

verdict: this is a little too light and young for me. its not unpleasant in any way, but its very one dimensional. it makes me feel calm and cozy.

It's a sparkling, nocturnal, dewy, moon-radiant, silken and mysterious rose, with a pleasant breath of something else mingled in -- the moonflower, I take it. Good Goddess this is beautiful, and very delicate.

Slightly less nasty than most of the other BPALs I sampled, but still bad. Smells like bathroom air freshener, but stronger & sharper. I feel like the inside of my nose contracts when I smell this.

This is absolutely gorgeous. I love Beth's rose scents, they are all so different and special in their own way. This smells like a pink rose covered in dew. It goes on beautifully and dries down even nicer...you can smell the moonflower starting to poke its head out, which just makes the rose smell even nicer, to me. This is definitely a spring/summer scent and definitely something I need a big bottle of.

I adore Moon Rose. Like the others said, it's a very soft fragrance. I can't describe it as well as the other MUAers, so I won't even attempt to. But it's gorgeous and I definitely will repurchase when my imp runs out.

I put this on about 5 hours ago and I can still smell it, but it is a little faint. It is a very lovely and delicate rose scent, a pale rose, not a tea rose, with hints of dew and moonflower. It's very feminine. Not sharp, not green, not red rose, think pale, white to light pink rose petals with hints of dew on them. That is what it smells like. I think the staying power actually suits the fragrance, it would be strange if it were really strong. A good skin scent.

Bewitching Brews ~ A crisp, pale, almost translucent rose dusted by moonflower and midnight dew.
Moon Rose is a pale pink rose covered in dew drops. Sweet and delicate. Reminds me of my nana's garden. Goes a little bubbly bath soapy on me which is kind of nice, but I prefer a little more with my rose...Beth's Spellbound with its gorgeous insence musk and amber is still my favourite BPAL Rose and one of my favourite BPALs.

A light, floral scent again, but this one has a hint of something mysterious, and I really liked the way it smelled on. It didn't last long, though.

Okay, seriously? This is the exact scent of Softsoap liquid body wash. Like...exactly. Slightly soapy, very clean, with a faint hint of a floral-powder. Dove-soap-scent fanatics would looooooove this one. (To explain my rating though: I, on the other hand, do not. I'll stick to soap in the shower, thankyouverymuch.)

I have this in an Imp's Ear, so that's why I rated the packaging not so well, as I find it to be clumsy- maybe the old Imp's Ears were better. This is a beautiful rose scent. Light and haunting. Staying power is so-so, but the strength of the fragrance is just right.

"A crisp, pale, almost translucent rose dusted by moonflower and midnight dew"
If you like rose, you'll love this fragrance! It's light, cool and fresh. Very innocent and summery. I'm rating it according to the quality of the fragrance as opposed to whether or not I like it because I just don't like rose. This was sent as an extra sampler with my order and I was happy to have the opportunity to try it. It's still so nice that I think I'll keep it and use it from time to time when I want to feel very very feminine.
