The r/fragrance community views Rosa by Santa Maria Novella as a beautiful centifolia rose fragrance with a soft, plush character that appeals to those seeking quality floral scents. However, the pear note is divisive and can develop sour qualities, and the fragrance's discontinued or limited availability makes it challenging to obtain, with the premium price reflecting its use of real centifolia oil.
