Rose Milk Tea

[doomsday_disco]

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. ❤️  🌹

This one is a lovely rose-sugar-milky delight ❤️

It's not too overpowering and gives peeks of the green tea (which might be the same note from 'TEA' from the Shungas from 2011 [IIRC])

This one might be backup worthy ❤️

Can't resist a rose flourmand and this one is a delight!

From the burst of vividly realistic rose petals at application, through the pale milky sweet drink straight into the yummy starchy pearls, it's joyful pink and green perfection, and very wearable.

I wish I could drink this one!! So incredibly delicious.

 

I can pick out all the notes on this one (it's even clearly green tea rather than black to my nose! And for me I do get the almond milk specifically, though agree that it's an exceptionally rich and creamy almond milk), and they are all so realistic and fun. I'm not really a gourmand person, and the experience of smelling this but not getting to drink it drives me a little crazy, but it's so sweet and pretty and playful. I don't think this is one I'll wear frequently, so I don't expect I'll be getting a bottle of it, but I'm glad it exists and I'm happy to have a decant.

Rose Milk is surprisingly gourmand! The almond milk froth and the tapioca do wonderful things together, almost a spongey almond coffee cake sort of vibe. The rose is there and while it’s probably pink (maybe white? It’s definitely not red rose) there is nothing “flowery” or dainty about this scent overall. Lasts a nice long time on my skin as well. I’m into it.

This is mostly about the rose and DAIRY on me, with the almond part of the milk note only being noticeable when the scent was freshly applied. Then it's full-on actual milk. I see some reviewers have mentioned condensed milk, and I could see that, but I think that's the boba's sweetness combining with the very milky milk note. I can tell that this features a green tea note, but I mostly noticed it during the wet phase of the scent, before it become a rose and dairy party. I ordered a rose milk tea the other day, but this scent is totally unlike the one I'm used to since it has a black tea base instead of a green one. As far as the boba goes, I don't really get the texture of the boba here, just the sweetness it adds to the milk note.

 

I will probably retest this before it goes away, but at the moment, I think I prefer Imose-Yama for a rose and dairy fix.

I want to love Rose Milk Tea, and I wish I got dairy and condensed milk from this like everyone else seems to, but this is just a rose explosion on me.  The rose starts off fresh, uplifting, and pretty. After about an hour, however, it's a perfumey rose powder with a hint of sugary sweetness. The rose amps up way too much on my skin.

Green tea tannins and fluffy rose infused milky clouds. I get a steamed vibe about RMT. The green tea/milk notes show up more distinctly on my skin then the rose one.
