11 Fresh Scents Better Than a Dozen Roses

Our favorite luxe flower is the "it" scent of the season

Chloé Roses de Chloé, $70 (1 fl. oz.)
Notes of bergamot, white musk and, of course, fresh cut roses set this scent at the top of our signature spring fragrance list. Plus, the bottle itself is pretty enough to leave on display all year long.

DKNY Be Delicious Fresh Blossom, $24 (1 fl. oz.)
The cult Be Delicious line has been a favorite of ours for years. This newest addition to the collection blends grapefruit, apricot and floral rose and jasmine notes for a sultry but sweet feminine scent.

Dolce & Gabbana Rose The One, $108 (2.5 fl. oz.)
This new scent from D&G combines subtle vanilla, amber and musk notes with grapefruit, peach and Bulgarian rose for a timeless trail of sweetness all day long.

Balenciaga Florabotanica Body Lotion, $52 (6.7 fl. oz.)
Inspired by the woman who is beautiful but dangerous, this scented moisturizer has top notes of carnation, mint and Turkish rose essences along with hemp leaves and white amber.

The Body Shop White Musk Smoky Rose, $24 (1 fl. oz.)
Another daring take on rose, this eau de parfum blends cruelty-free musk with notes of black smoky rose and tobacco flower and the scent that lasts for hours.

Roses are red, and that's all fine and good, but they eventually die. Flowers are gorgeous and special, but we're also practical women -- we won't turn down a dozen, but for our money, we want something that lasts beyond a few days. For Spring 2014, rose scents are all over the place -- in soaps, candles, body lotions and fragrances.

We've already fallen in love with rose-colored fashion and rose-gold accent pieces -- it was just a matter of time before rose scents caught on. Along with new perfumes from designers like Dolce & Gabbana, DKNY and Yves Saint Laurent, popular beauty brands have also jumped on board to release rose-centric products even an anti-flower girl could love. From body lotions and masks to perfumes and diffusers, consider these fresh picks better than any bouquet of red roses this season.
