Rose perfume never goes out of style.

There’s no denying that rose is an iconic fragrance, but at some point, the floral scent gained a reputation as a touch old-fashioned, and even outdated. Luckily, that notion has faded over the past few years, as plenty of elegant, fresh and feminine rose-focused perfumes continue to prove that the scent is both timeless and modern. After all, there’s a reason that rose fragrances are best-sellers for so many perfumeries—these are classics for a reason!
