"The name Rose Cut refers to an ancient diamond cutting technique that lends the stone a soft radiance..."
Rose Cut is Ann Gérard's fourth release, once again composed by Bertrand Duchaufour, and is described as a chypré. This is actually incorrect, as it's really a floral-oriental.
Devoid of any citrus top notes, labdanum and natural animalic musks, this fragrance doesn't even deserve to be classified in such a way. It's completely misleading and an insult to consumers. Moreover, it smells like a waxy and synthetic department store rose scent, with a price tag that's far from justifiable.
With an unimpressive aldehydic opening, a repressed booziness and a generic rose oriental premise, Rose Cut is utterly derivate. Possessing moderate sillage and good longevity, Bertrand Duchaufour should be ashamed of himself for creating such a cheap-smelling monstrosity.
