New Philososphy Amazing Grace Ballet Rose

I just got the new Ulta flyer and there was a sample of this to smell.  It's a nice soft scent.  I may have to take a ride to Ulta to sample it.  Has anyone tried this yet?

I actually posted about this new fragrance a few weeks ago and I ended up buying it from Ulta. I like it, to me it has a faint rose smell which is nice and I usually prefer only clean smelling fragrances like Amazing grace. I still love amazing grace but I only buy it retail and not from QVC because IMO it's the original amazing grace scent and last longer.

I ordered it from Macy's.  It will be here soon.  I notice they also have it in a shower gel and body lotion/emulsion.    I hope I like it.

Re: New Philososphy Amazing Grace Ballet Rose

There are two new philosophy Rose scents. The one at Ulta is Amazing Grace ballet rose and the one at Macys is Pure Grace nude rose.

I have tried both.

 

The Ulta ballet rose is a floral...a more 'true' rose. Not much Amazing Grace that I could detect.

The Macys nude rose is cleaner and closer to pure grace. I don't detect much rose..maybe pure grace and floral. It is softer.

 

I don't think the Ulta version would be for you unless you really like Rose, which I do.

 

Ballet Rose is dressier, the Nude Rose could be worn any time. Of the two I prefer Nude Rose as it seems more universally appealing.

I don't like rose scented fragrances. I got a chance to smell this in Macys, it's not for me.

Re: New Philososphy Amazing Grace Ballet Rose

I was curious about this scent as I love both Amazing and Pure Grace so I took the 2 hour ride to the closest Ulta.  Extremely disappointed with the Amazing Grace version.  All I smelled was the rose scent...no detectable Amazing Grace at all.  Unfortunately I don't have a Macy's within 400 miles..

I have the body wash and lotion that I got at Ulta, and I love both.   Had used them yesterday and went shopping...was stopped by a woman who wanted to know what I was wearing!   I always take that as a compliment.

The scent is available in a small .5 spray ($18.00) I think. I agree with you that the Ulta scent is 'rose'. I think Macys has free shipping on beauty but I don't know about returns. The Macys version is much more Pure Grace than the Ulta one is Amazing Grace...in my opinion.

I am sorry you had to ride 2 hours to try the Ulta version. Disappointing.
