Amazingly true: roses turned up! (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

retrousse

'turned up' is the definition.
(retrousse describes an attractively turned up nose)

'amazingly true roses' is the wordplay.
'amazingly' indicates an anagram.
'true'+'roses'='trueroses'
'trueroses' is an anagram of 'RETROUSSE'.

(Other definitions for retrousse that I've seen before include "turned up in Nice" , "(Of noses) upturned" , "Of nose, turned up at tip" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
