Rouge

I ADORE this fragrance. It smells exactly how I was expecting. AMBER is absolutely the predominant note here. Pink pepper is also detectable at first spray giving you that spicy twist but it quickly disappear in order to let the Lotus flower and Chinese Black Tea making their entrance. In the dry down phase the strong amber note shares the scene with a hint of woody notes. I can't properly detect bergamot and orange but I'm sure they are there somewhere in the opening ;) The 20 ml bottle is just so beautiful. It's a precious jewel to display in your beauty wardrobe or perfume closet. The glass is thick, the velvet bow cute. The only thing: the "gold" chain and spryer aren't that shining as displayed in promo pictures. They are more a "grey gold" which looks kind of cheap but it's ok. This gives a more vintage vibe to the whole experience and I guess that's exactly what Dita wanted. Also: I find this perfume really masculine. It could be easily be worn by a man. Don't be afraid. FIVE STARS.

Here's what dita thought about the making of rouge: "Since teaching a woman proper burlesque can take a good long while, lets make a perfume that allows a woman to invoke her inner Josephine Baker or Gypsy Rose Lee." (Not a direct quote from DVT, just my interpretation of what she may have thought about for the creation of rouge) This perfume isn't trying to be more than it is. It's simple and sexy without trying to be pensive or overly sophisticated or stuffy. In other words, like a burlesque dancer, rouge allows the shape of its notes to speak for itself, revealing its charms slowly. Lets not try to elevate this perfume to niche ranks where it was never intended to be. Enjoy it on its own merits.

Fragrance that is light and airy. The first notes are orangy and somewhat fruity, with a lovely refreshing dash of bergamot and a mild trace of pepper. The perfume has a clear powdery sense to me, but it might also be the dry woods that come out the most in the end, amber sweetens up the entire composition, and the lone flower is a clean large magnolia. A clear very heavy flower with notes of tea, honey, powder, and dry smokiness. This perfume reminds me of warmth; it's warm, soft, and fluffy, like a clean cashmere sweater. Deep, subtle, and beautiful, with mild silage and excellent duration. Stunning!

This woman just cannot disappoint me. While the first perfume is sharp, and hard not to notice, Rouge makes me feel very comfortable. It's less smoky and more woody. I guess it's the tea note that stands out for me and makes it so seductive. Some of you might disagree, but on me it smells a lot like Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau Sensuelle. Again Dita designed a quality perfume that has good sillage and lasting power over 12 hours. I am pleased with the bottle design and the fact that the bigger bottles are also without an atomizer. Atomizers look pretty, but their function is limited.

Wonderful! Love at first sniff :) It's is warm, velvety, comforting, feminine, and boudoir like. It has that makeup, leather 'n lipstick smell. It's like warm pleasantly intense amber, mixed with jasmine and leather. By looking at the notes, I wasn't sure it was going to be my thing. I am glad I tried it Thanks to reviewers, well described and truthfully praised fragrance. This is one of the best celebrity scents outthere. Unique and well done! And package is uber cute:) Thumbs up D von T! Keep 'em coming! Two great fragrances and I cannot wait to try the newest one!

Very deep, warm amber feminine perfume. The opening is heavy on the bergamot and pepper, and after 15-30 minutes the warmth of the amber and woody notes kick in. I think the perfume suits Dita well, and definitely makes me feel as glamorous as she often portrays herself. I do think a bit more sillage would be better (it's a very intimate perfume and develops quickly), and I also think there's a note somewhere that makes it smell a bit synthetic. Other than that, I really do love this scent.

Rouge is most definitely a 'red' scent! Spicy and warm but thankfully not too strong. I notice the magnolia, pepper, sandalwood and amber along with assorted other spices. I don't notice the tea though. This is a very sexy yet appropriately wearable scent not to be put aside just for evening wear. I do think Rouge it's better appreciated in autumn and winter though. The beautiful bottle, as with all of Dita's other scents, is a tactile pleasure and a joy to look at.

Out of the original Dita and Fleur, this has the wow factor for me. It s hot and sexy and has a smokey passion about it. It reminds me of an old gentleman s club, cigars and leather, very dignified. It is the woman who walks through the room and all heads turn! Unfortunately, it needs to be frequently re applied as longevity is not great but as with her other fragrances, you can t argue for the price. Definitely stands out from other celebrity fragrances.

I find this one very seductive airy oriental,no sharp egies and smouldering scent.It is deep and soft at the same time.I tryed it with some of my perfumes,so can admit here that Bvgary Black and Rouge by Dita VT are perfect couple made together .Love the scent of red liquor melange theese two blends together ...Very nice and unusual.Perfect for the colder seazone ... Thank You,Dita,for this nice creation of Perfume.Want to have all scents made by Dita...

Red velvet perfection Unique perfume, high class aroma, jewel bottle. I cannot describe this wonderful perfume from Dita. Aromatic oriental with heavy pepper note where lovely woods and magnolia mix altogether and produce this unforgetable smell. Long lasting with a decent sillage. Go for it if you appreciate Boudoir and Boss intense. Looking forward to try Erotique.

Fantastically pleasant incense based fresh tea with a hint of oriental notes. That's what I imagine as vintage scent, and I can also visualise as Dita herself wear this perfume. The drydown reminds me of Oriflame Nomadic her, but in that there is more citrus, and Dita Rouge is much more sexier.

Super warm and subtle amber with the undertones of a firepit deep within an autumn forest. I can nearly taste those velvety flames.

I love the warm & peppery smell of this, but the longevity is really poor, at least on my skin.

i love it ! it's totally sexy and seducing fragrance.

I love the strong magnolia note in Rouge.

This was a blind buy for me, or rather a blind-present I wished for, as I like Dita's first perfume and both are surprisingly affordable. The 20ml bottle is extremely pretty, again. The shape, the way the deep red reflects the light, beautiful. The notes listed are straight to the point I find, at least I for once actually smell them the way they are listed. The opening is orangey, slightly fruity with a good refreshing dash of bergamotte and the most gentle hint of pepper. However even during the rather fresh opening this scent is just not light. When the magnolia turns it's volume up after a while, things get more heavily floral, sweet, but not only so, as there is a balancing tea note in there, very slightly dusty and smokey black tea. The perfume has a definite powdery vibe to me, it could also be the dry woods, that come out the most in the end, amber sweetens up the whole composition and the only floral is a quite noticable clean big magnolia. Tea, sweetness, powder and dry smokiness, a clean rather heavy flower - to me this scent evokes coziness, it's warm and cuddly and furry like a clean cashmere pullover. For grown-ups, mind you, no simple musk+laundry+vanilla cozy powdered floral, there's more sophistication, and it evokes the same idea but in a different way. Yet, it's not all that complex, there are not as many interesting layers unfolding to my nose as I'd dare to hope. For my liking it could be a little bit more full-bodied, a bit more dense, but then it might as well suffocate you in dry, sweet powderiess. Like Dita's first perfume, I find it rather easy to wear, with an extra amount of glamour for everyday. I wear the most loud and intense scents for non-special occasions too though, so.. probably most people will find it more suitable for evening and special occasions I suppose. Longevity is good on skin and paper, sprayed once it has quite strong sillage, so you're not getting watery juice by any means despite the low price-tag. Like the original launch Dita von Teese my bottle is produced by Luxess in Germany, so this might explain why both are most early and readily available in Germany and countries close by.

Unlike her other fragrances, this one didn't open very alcohol-y the first second of applying on me. It's was a beautiful sweet powdery fruity scent. After a minute or two of applying, I get the Chinese tea with it, too. I know berries aren't listed, but I feel like I can imagine an artificial red berry scent. This is very vintage and glamorous and feminine. I imagine a beautiful young woman at her makeup vanity in a vintage setting, someone that loves dressing themselves up lavishly and wearing makeup (so...Dita lol). Like has been mentioned, this is like an old school sexy and feminine. Though also like her other fragrances, there seems to be basically no sillage. I do smell it within about 6" of my skin though. It's also a lot more 'tame' than her other scents and lighter, but still pretty. A bit too powdery for my personal tastes too, but I still enjoy it. 15 minutes after applying and I'm smelling the wood come out and pepper. And after 30 minutes, it's pretty much a skin scent, but still there. 45 minutes after applying and I get a scent I've seen listed on many other perfumes- plastic doll head scent. It's not bad actually, but it's got that powdery, vanillay, slightly fruity scent you get from old squishy doll heads. Update: 3 hours in and I still smell it on my skin. It's very powdery, I imagine an old timey showgirl, like a cancan girl, all dressed up at her vanity with this now. The longevity is so far the best of her fragrances. 6 hours later and I can still smell it well on my skin. Impressively, 9 hours later I could still smell this on me, albeit lightly and with my nose to my arm, but it was definitely there. I had to take a shower so couldn't tell you how long until it completely wore off, but this has so far lasted the longest of all of her perfumes.

Rouge is fairly simIlar to her signature perfume, but I prefer Rouge as the florals are powdered more, which gives the perfume a more timeless yet vintage feel. The longevity is also a bit better [6 - 7 hours]. On first application I can detect the listed bergamot, the mild oranges traces (which fade very quickly on me) and what I think is the pepper. the star here is the long tea accord, which carries all the way through to the base. I normally dislike perfumes with jasmine as I find it heavy and migraine inducing, but I think there's some here and it doesn't bother me. The listed magnolia is powdery and by far the strongest floral note present in Rouge. I also get a brief whiff of what I think is tiare, but the pepper note soon develops and hides all of the other florals. Rouge soon shifts from a floral perfume to a warm oriental, as the lightly smoked wood notes develop, which mixes nicely with the powdery magnolia and still-lingering tea accord and warms up the reminder of the fragrance.

I absolutely adore Dita, her taste in perfume and that she fights for the things she believes in. Her perfume collection is the best example: Offering these unique, quality scents at that price point: My hat's off to her :) PLUS - finally another "celebrity" perfume I actually think is real - if you know what I mean. I am totally convinced that she loves and wears her own scents. I'm awaiting Erotique and her original scent in the mail and can't wait to wear them :) Rouge is another gem and facet: powdery, ambery tea heaven. I've never smelled Lapsang Souchong tea before but can say that a tea note is very evident, adding a somewhat dry aspect to the perfume. Very classy and perfect for a nice dinner, night at the opera etc. (or whenever one wants to feel classy ;)). Btw - the powdery aspect reminds me of the Oscar De la Renta Esprit D'Oscar powder note. Maybe that's helpful :)

Deep, subtle, elegant with that characteristic Guerlanesqu'e base - powdery-anise, that's why I noticed L'Heure Bleue's note in base. Less sprakling that classic Dita but more mysterieus, softer. I feel powder & amber, Rouge reminds me velvety-red curtains, in a little bit oldish style but with no doubts served with a modern twist. Again - very good composition, as far as Dita doesn't dissapoint. Bravo. On the market is full enough of that fruity-sugar jellies, good for her she knows what she wants, regardless peut-etre of popularity. However I might point poor sillage, though longevity is very good, scent is lying very close to body, that's pity because I love more powerful perfumes (and it's eau de parfum) especially when it's really good smell. If you're looking for elegant, grown-up scent Rouge should be good choice.
