Advantages: great to look at and smell
Disadvantages: blackspot disease

...Hybrid Tea roses are to most people the best kind of rose . They are usually fragrant , always eye catching and the flowers are of a good size. Hybrid Tea roses do not flower so profusely as floribunda's but they make up for it in my opinion with better quality blooms. It is like the old saying goes - it is better to have quality rather than quantity . Well it is in this case anyway ! The flower is the classic rose shape - many petals with a distinct central cone. The blooms are almost always borne singly or with several side shoots instead of the clusters of the more prolific but inferior floribuna rose ( see my op on floribunda's ) I reckon hybrid teas are slightly more tricky to grow well , though they are hardly difficult.Once you see the long pointed bud at the end of a stem - promising so much , you'll know even then you have...

Advantages: The best espresso coffee is right here
Disadvantages: You will never enjoy other coffees as much again

...As the coffee rises inside my Bialetti stove top espresso coffeepot, a fragrant aroma of strong coffee fills the house from top to bottom. This just preceeds the cream of the coffee seeping though the nozzle to collect - slowly slowly - at the bottom of the coffeepot. The dark rich fragrant coffee is topped naturally with the cream produced at the very beginning of the magic brewing process. Lavazza has been drunk in my house ever since I can remember. Every child was given "caffelatte" at breakfast, and I developed a love for the stuff from a very early age. Everyone immediately notices if the espresso at the end of our meal is of a different brand name, or worse, that no-one has made a cup to round off the meal. Lavazza espresso is particularly delicious. It is a blend with perfect balance and a wonderful aroma. Perfect... Read review

Advantages: good value for money
Disadvantages: not too sure of the smell

...Right Guard Double Protection Sensitive deodorant is good value, not too expensive & it is a sensitive one & is right in its claim of 'no stinging'. It is a spray on anti-perspirant. I thought the smell was rather too fragrant though, I would have preferred a fresher smell than this one. It is pretty good & lasted quite well, but sometimes you might need a second application, especially on hot days. It is dermatologically tested, which is an issue for me, as I try not to buy any cosmetics or toiletries that are tested on animals.... Read review

Advantages: No fragrance irritation
Disadvantages: dull packaging

...At last - a deodorant spray that doesn't irritate us sensitive types ! RightGuard Double Protection Unperfumed spray is ideal if you, like me , strive to avoid the daily coughing and spluttering caused by your fragrant deodorant. It does not sting and is very gentle. My only criticism is that the packaging design is rather masculine for a unisex product. It is moderately priced. This is an effective spray that works all day long, and what a breath of fresh air (literally!) that it is not perfumed. Thank you Right Guard!... Read review

Advantages: Very comfortable, laid back smell that is very popular among the ladies.
Disadvantages: In some places it can be common thus losing that individuality factor.

...L´Eau D´Issey was created under the brand Issey Miyake from Shiseido in 1994 and can be considered quite an old fragrant. However, it is still maintaining it's popularity and is one of the top scents. It's a must have in your collection. :: NOTES :: The fragrance notes are as follows. Top notes are the first thing you smell after application which lasts probably 5-20 minutes. Middle notes will be noticeable for an hour and usually complements both top and base notes. Base notes are basically what you get from the fragrant and is complemented by both top and middle notes. Top Notes : Yuzu (Japanese Citron), Cypress, Coriander, Mandarin, Clary Sage, Fresh Verbena Middle Notes : Blue Water Lily, Nutmeg, Saffron, Bourbon Geranium, Ceylonese Cinnamon Base Notes : Tobacco Amber, Musk, Indian Sandalwood, Haitian Vetiver, Cypriol :: WHAT...

Advantages: Great variety of flowers
Disadvantages: Lots of thorns!

...Shrub roses come in a great variety. There are types that grow tall and some that can be used as ground cover. Some are termed as ‘old fashioned’ having been around for many years, others are known as ‘modern’. Generally speaking, shrub roses need less attention than other types. Although they do need some pruning it is usually only to keep the bush in good shape and condition, cutting away the dead wood etc. The ground cover variety is relatively new and can be planted to spread across the garden rather than up – obvious from the name, of course! They will happily ramble over banks making a mass of fragrant blooms. They tend to have rather small flowers which grow in clusters and this makes a lovely carpet of colour. Some have names such as ‘Flower Carpet’ and ‘Magic Carpet’. The ‘old fashioned’ type usually has many petals... Read review

Advantages: plenty of flowers
Disadvantages: not as good quality as hybrid teas

...There are five different types of roses . Floribunda's which are the second most popular group are our main concern in this opinion . So what is a floribunda rose ? Well floribunda's bear their flowers typically in clusters rather than the s
