• Review of Aqua Allegoria Rosa Magnifica by Shana Reiley

  If you hate aldehydes run! Rosa Magnifica starts out with very loud aldehydes & upon spraying it, I got an instant soapy taste in my mouth. After about 10 minutes Rosa settles into a pretty rose soap with a faint touch of blackberry. It still holds on to a little more aldehydes than I like. Then in 20-30 minutes it turns a bit greener and the longer it is on the skin it keeps softening up. Finally, in 2-3 hours it turns to a faintly citrusy rose. Not worth the 3 hours of soapy cleaner smell!

• Review of Aqua Allegoria Rosa Magnifica by Melanie Teegarden

  I just love the Aqua Allegorias. The way that each perfume phase presents itself, then gracefully departs and makes way for the next...it's just lovely. I've been using them to "teach perfume" to my daughters, dripping them onto test strips and little arms for discussion and for experiencing over the course of several hours. Rosa Magnifica is the favorite of my youngest daughter Storm, and it's a perfect scent for a young, whimsical girl like she is. When first applied, you wonder "where are the roses?" There is so much herbal green-ness in the opening that the rose is almost invisible. Over 15 minutes or so, these green herbals fade almost completely away leaving a beautiful pink or white tea rose, just as fresh as you please. The tea rose scent endures and gradually warms up to almost a blushing damask rose before drying down in a gentle whiff of sandalwood and amber at the end. Very gentle, quietly alluring and freshly sweet.
