Everything's Coming Up Roses

http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/1/7/a/e/event_180186062.jpeg!!!!!!!!!THIS EVENT IS NOW SOLD OUT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rose perfumes are as individual as people – and we guarantee there’s more than one rose out there that you’re going to fall in love with. But why is it that so many people say they hate rose perfumes and find them too ‘old lady’?

Perhaps some attempts at faithful renditions in days gone by did lack a certain something, but if you’ve ever smelled Roja Dove’s Aoud for example, or Frederic Malle's 'Portrait of A Lady', 'Une Rose', or Lipstick Rose, you will know what it is to be truly excited by roses. Temptress and aesthete, poet and lothario, rose perfumes come in all shapes and guises...

Do you know your tea rose from your Rosa Damascena or Rosa Centifolia? Learn how to tell those apart.

Come and smell a wide selection of rose perfumes for men and women: we’ll have roses that are centre stage performers and roses that are best supporting actors. We are delighted to announce that this evening will be hosted by journalist and photographer Andy Bradshaw.

Please note: tickets are non refundable. Price includes refreshments, and, where possible, one sample of your choice.
