"I’ve smelled every scent in the Dark Flowers collection and this is one of my favorites. As others have said, this is not your typical light, feminine rose. It’s dark, gothic, and moody but still feminine. Think deep crimson, not pink. I absolutely adore it and think it’s very wearable for everyday. I want it to be one of my go-tos for sure. I also think it’s fairly strong but can’t tell you how many hours it would last. Projects well and I could still smell it on my skin after washing with soap and water multiple times. I need a full bottle. 🖤🖤🖤"
Dark Roses Humongous Miniature Splash
The Scent: Rose Water Tea, Thorny Stem Bulgarian Rose Petals and Davana Blossom are topped with Red Currants and anchored by an earthy Patchouli, Dark Amber and Haitian Vetiver: a deep, dark swirl unlike anything else you have experienced in a Rose-inspired scent.

"Subtle rose smell"
Dark Rose Humongous Splash
"I absolutely love Dark Roses. I tried it in the Dark Flowers bundle that I bought for my boyfriend. It was the only one he didn't care for, only because he said it was too floral for him. So he gave it to me. It reminds me when red roses start to get dark on the edges and it goes from smelling sweet, to a bit tart. It stays on me all day. This is not the rose note that you would expect. It's moody and makes a statement. I just bought the Dark Rose Humongous Splash since I've used up the sample."
Bougie Barbie? Yes please. Layers well.
"Reminds me of playing Barbie with my sister in the early 90s. I'm sure one of their hair smelled like this. Probably the one that came with the perfume that smells identical. I like to layer it with Baccarat. I know. But it works. And in a world where that fragrance is everywhere it really makes it unique and florals it up."
"I actually really like this! Doesnt smell old lady"
Powerful
"Makes me think of my grandma's vanity, in the best way. The rose, patchouli, and a bit musty and dusty. It's strongly floral, dark and mysterious, and so nostalgic for me personally. This is one of the strongest and longest lasting Demeter perfumes that I have came across as well!"
Weak
"I was so sad - all three of the scents I bought this time are so weak as to be gone in an hour. I have never had COVID and still mask because I am high risk, so I have retained a normal sense of smell,"
Dark Roses
"This is one of my favorite scents from Demeter. It’s unique & beautiful. It smells like roses but it’s well balanced & not overly sweet smelling & I think the red currant, & patchouli really help balance out all the rose scents in this one & the dark amber & hatian vetiver add some depth to it. This is not a dainty rose scent, it’s more mysterious & sensual. It reminds me of a deep red color."
