Rose Milk Tea

An impossibly sweet concoction of green tea and frothed almond milk poured over fresh rose petals and glistening tapioca pearls.

This one when it's wet starts out with a pink rose and this condensed milk note (I know it says almond milk but it seems thicker and sweeter than that). It might be the boba I'm getting rather than the milk. It's almost like Hexennacht London Fog but with rose. 

 

As it dries down the milk becomes more almond and the sweetness dies down. Rose stays strong. Fresh out of the mailbox this one dried down to Ms. Meyers rose scented soap, but now that it's had a little more time to rest it's definitely pink rose and almond milk.

Years ago, there was a soft release of a scent, Rose Milk V.1, which I was obsessed with for about a year. I'm not a regular fan of florals, and I'm especially picky when it comes to rose, but that combination was a winner for me.

And here it's come 'round again, in a slightly different form, and I'm SO pleased!

In the bottle, and when first applied, the milk note is slightly more at the fore than the rose (I agree with the above poster's assessment that the milk read more as 'condensed' than as 'almond', fwiw).

Once it fully dries down there's a shift, with  the rose becoming more prominent, the milk receding significantly, and the emergence of the green tea note. I get no tapioca, but this trio does just fine without its presence on me.

This scent has a low-medium throw, but I could see it being too overwhelming if it was slathered, so start sparingly and see how it goes with your skin chemistry. 

In All: a delightful spring floral, Rose Milk Tea is exactly what I love about many Lupercalia scents in that it makes a great transition out of late winter and through the blooming season we've just entered. ❤️  🌹
