Drole de Rose
Eau de Toilette
by L’Artisan Parfumeur



The Scoop
Drole de Rose is L'Artisan's pinup scent, unapologetically feminine, undeniably pretty, a flirty, coy little number with an enchanting retro feel. The softly powdery accord of violets and honeyed orange blossom give way to the heart of luscious roses with a sweet and slightly tangy twist of aniseed. The scent makes us think of expensive lipsticks and luxe powders that come in chic boxes with big fluffy puffs, it evokes an image of the forever glamorous Hollywood sirens of the past, always perfectly coiffed and made up, always elegantly and alluringly attired. The base of Drole de Rose is unexpectedly deep and dark, almost leathery in feel, providing an appealing contrast to the very feminine and dainty top and middle notes. The legendary light touch of Olivia Giacobetti, the creator of Drole de Rose, prevents the flowers from being too powdery, too heady and too sweet and bestows the composition with tastefulness and sophistication.

This is perfume I wear when I want to feel innocent, cheerful, and pretty. I love the fact of the violet enhancing the rose notes, and most of all I love the fact that it is completely and blessedly free of the indolic notes which tend to ruin so many floral fragrances on me.

The overall effect is baby powder plus Nivea cream.

This perfume is the equivalent of a very good girl who was raised in a convent and wears sensible shoes and tucks a napkin ever just so on her lap at dinner. Very boring, very safe, respectable and very modest. Too boring for me. The rose smell is so tentative it faded within three hours of putting it on. Yawn.

I love this one! It is a feminine retro scent that is quite wearable. I think that to like this one you need to enjoy the scent of roses and powder. This makes me think of rouge, red lipstick, and the innocent girls from the WWII era.

It starts off as a strong violet with a sting from the aniseed, and with time turns into the most exquisite, powdery violet-rose scent wrapped in silky honey, grinded almonds and just a little bit of that sweet liquorice from the aniseed that makes you think of that sweet English candy from Bassetts. I love this, it makes me visualize decadent, glamorous movie stars of past times. Definitely not a scent for the plain ones, since you need a bit of an edge in your personality to turn this into the beautiful fragrance it really is and not into something from your grandmother's old bathroom cabinet.

This one hasn't gotten a whole lot of love so far, but I have just ordered a bottle after having received a sample of this. It took a while to grow on me, but it is love now. The Luckyscent description is correct, a very feminine scent reminiscent of expensive lipstick and old Hollywood glamour. It makes me feel sexy and puts me in a good mood.
