Grecia Rosa captures the elegant rose and citrus opening of Dom Rosa fairly well, with a comparable fruity-floral profile in the heart. However, the clone substitutes some of the original's complex incense and guaiac wood depth with a more linear musk and geranium blend, resulting in a lighter, less sophisticated dry-down that lacks the original's resinous richness.
The clone omits the champagne note and olibanum complexity, replacing them with conventional musks that don't provide the same opulent character. Longevity and sillage are also noticeably reduced compared to the original's impressive performance.
What people who wear French Avenue Grecia Rosa report, based on votes and reviews from a large fragrance community.
“Smells pretty and unusual, it's goth but ethereal. It's holding pink roses in a garden while raining. I don't smell oud, fortunately.Very interesting, but I already knew the DNA and loved it. It is a lighter, juicier and probably more wearable take on the OG and I think the drydown is less spicy.Maybe not safe to blind buy as it's not a mass appealing scent and the champagne note is polarising. Some of my friends didn't like it on them because it smelled sour on their skin.PS: the vetiver note is prominent, this could have been the "Pour Femme" version of Encre Noire.”
“Is anyone else smelling cilantro?I want to like Grecia Rosa, but it is not giving me much. Mainly grapefruit and cilantro. Either my sample was decanted out of a very fresh bottle, or this is just not going to give me what it's giving others. Bummer.”
“Imagine Rayhaan Divine, take the freshness of it with added sweet citrus note and some milky spiciness into it. Yes, a spicy fresh rose with lactonic characteristic.”
