11 Fresh Scents Better Than a Dozen Roses

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

Strange Invisible Aquarian Rose, $385 (1.7 fl. oz.)
Hydro-distilled rose (aka condensed rose water) makes the combination of notes like marjoram and sandalwood softer and delicately fragrant.

Yves Saint Laurent Paris Premieres Roses, $95 (4.2 fl. oz.)
This modern twist on the classic Paris fragrance is packed with notes of eglantine rose, peony, Lily of the Valley and white musk for a mature, but still romantic fragrance.

The essential oils of rose in this home scent are infused with fresh citrus and hints of wood and musk. And the decorative bottle gives us reason enough to display well after the suggested eight to ten weeks of use.

Twenty-four hours of hydration and a fresh petal-like rose scent? Yes, please. This soothing body lotion is silicone-free and formulated with shea butter and nourishing botanical oils.

Chantecaille Rose Eye Makeup Remover, $39 (74 ml)
This soothing eye makeup remover is paraben-free, vegan-friendly and non-oily. Pure rosewater and aloe vera heal inflammation and reduce redness around the eye area.

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.
