Another rose themed day. This time I tried D.R. Harris Rose cream. Yesterday was Geo F Trumper Rose cream. I don't know if my sample is old, but it was a rather dry cream. I don't have any other D.R. Harris creams to compare the consistency with either. What should have been a smear of cream in my lather bowl was instead a chunk of semisolid cream. It took a good bit of brushing to break the chunks down into lather. Other than the consistency of the cream, everything else was on par with the Trumper Rose cream. Great scent, slick enough lather. The star of the show, however, was Le Labo's Rose 31. I was a little concerned that I would not be able to smell the rose due to some reviewers comments. I was happily surprised by this one. A nice spicy rose that is easy to wear. The only problem is that the stuff costs a fortune. I've been teetering on the edge of buying some Ungaro III. I wonder if it is anywhere close to Rose 31.
