Mon Guerlain Bloom of Rose

I was very excited when Mon Guerlain was introduced. I went to the store on the day it was released, but my hope turned out to be a big disappointment. It was very heavy and cloying to my nose. I could not get along very well with its sisters either. But Bloom of Rose is totally another story. It starts with fresh, sweet citrus, then flowers start to bloom. I can not identify these flowers very well but I can say that it's not a rose centered fragrance. It smells very pure and clean, but not like a typical citrus perfume. It also has a floral sweetness unlike sugary, gourmand sweet. On the middle phases, lavender becomes more prominent. On drydown, it's what I wanted Mon Guerlain to be; slightly vanillic lavender. I think this will be a crowd-pleaser but not in a boring way. I may use it as a daily, office friendly fragrance and keep on wearing in the evening. Very versatile, gives a positive feeling. I'm happy not to overlook this perfume because of my previous experience with the mother scent. This may be a perfect choice for spring & summer and a mood lifter for autumn & winter. Update: On my second trial, I was sure that I loved it very much and I bought it. After a very rainy and cold winter, now the sun shines and the trees are getting ready to bloom. Hope of spring is everywhere. Bloom of Rose fits these days very well.

You will love this - if - you find the original MG is too much vanilla and lavender for warm weather - but you still crave that quality Guerlain DNA for the summer. The neroli flower in this EDT a stand out and the scent is a true crowd pleaser. This is a summer fragrance that earns me the most compliments. True, the longevity is only a couple of hours, but if respray is no problem, it is well worth the effort. It does last longer on clothing, so I do make sure my clothing is carrying the scent as well. I love all Guerlain, but in the heat, I imagine the rich vanilla of MG actually curdling and the lavender being just too heavy for summer days. In contrast, this toilette sits fresh and pretty on warm skin and I find myself breathing in the flower accord & very soft vanilla and sandalwood. Truly beautiful in my opinion. Nothing generic or cheap here. Still Guerlain quality, but in a soft way. I have just ordered my second backup bottle. **Different from Bloom of Rose EDP which is heavier and does have a true rose scent and longer longevity. This EDT is lighter and mostly a beautiful neroli/jasmine flower.

I have Mon Guerlain EDT on one wrist and Mon Guerlain Bloom of Rose EDT on the other. The EDT is very similar to the original Mon Guerlain EDP, just a bit lighter with a bit less going on in the base notes. Bloom of Rose is different. There is still the signature Mon Guerlain scent underneath, but it does not play a starring role. The stars of this fragrance are citrus, neroli and rose. I have to really try hard to smell the rose, as it seems to blend in very well with the rest of the notes. But the overall impression that the citrus, neroli and rose create is one of class and elegance. This fragrance is more office friendly than the original EDP and EDT, however, it is never boring. It is unmistakably Guerlain in quality and depth. The more I smell it the more I enjoy this fragrance. I received this as a gift a few days ago and it is already becoming one of my favourites! And it is very versatile and would suit a variety of occasions and locations. Because it is lighter, it will do well in the spring and summer. Well done Guerlain!

Wow, this is GORGEOUS! I love the original and the Florale, but this is so incredibly pretty - I have the Florale on one arm and a sample of Bloom of Rose on the other at the moment, and while they both share the same fresh-vanilla combination, Florale (as the name suggests) leans more floral but is still more suited to warm or cool days due to the sweet and more intense vanilla it shares with the original Mon Guerlain, while Bloom of Rose is perfect for truly hot weather since it has a creamier and softer vanilla undertone that is outshined by a pure, bright medley of notes that are so well-blended that I can hardly pick them apart. The citrus here is very inoffensive though, clean and sweet (nothing like Light Blue, for example), while the rose is definitely there but so well blended with the vanilla in the background that you might miss it if you aren't consciously looking for it. I can smell the neroli and it adds a very delicate, bridal-like finish to this beautiful fragrance. I LOVE it, well done Guerlain!

Hello from Decodawn to my fellow fragrance fans.This is my review of Guerlain 'Bloom of Rose'. Firstly may I just say I think this fragrance is gorgeous. It's Perfect for Spring/Summer & warmer weather & holidays.This is obviously related to the original Mon Guerlain but a Lighter, cleaner, airy, fresh, opening and its 'eau de toilette' so a thinner fragrance. However, the dry down is excellent & is very reminiscent of florale & MG original and a typical Guerlain. The fragrance is very long lasting. Beautiful bottle. I own 4 so far. Mon Guerlain, Florale, Intense and Bloom of Rose and I will be buying MG edt as it is now discontinued. I love this range Mon Guerlain has been a huge success If you prefer lighter floral romantic fragrances you will love this. If you prefer a more robust fragrance I would suggest the original which is still very strong or the intense. Don't just try it buy it. Lots of current offers on ebay. It's a big thumbs up from me. Stay safe everyone. Love Dawn x April 2020

I have several of the MG line. Honestly, and I say this as a huge fan of all the old-school Guerlains, I like them all. I find the original MG and the original EDT super easy grabs for every day wear. I find the same to be true of BoR. Bloom of Rose is definitely not rose centered, so the name is a bit of a misnomer. Citrus is right out of the gate, but that’s the same as many other Guerlains on my skin. Looking at the notes, I’m pretty sure it’s lavender + jasmine that I predominately smell in the drydown. I do smell some light pink faerie roses in the mid-drydown but I really have to concentrate to find it. I like it. It’s a sparkling, herbaceous floral, but a mild scent all around. Perfect for every day wear. Best in the warmth and heat in my opinion. Can go a little sharp in colder weather. Almost reminds me of Miracle by Lancome. Not the scent itself but the overall feeling of effortless class. Not bad for a modern scent.

Oh wow, I did not expect THAT. My husband is not one to complement, but as soon as he caught a whiff of this he went "Oh my LORD, what is that perfume?! It is BEAUTIFUL!!! Please wear it more often!". To me it smells like a mixture between Happy Spirit by Chopard and JPG's Scandal. It smells like honey and grape juice. It's sweet, juicy, candy-like but not overly cloying, not tart, and has a "cool" feeling about it (cool as in cold-ish). It's beautiful for the cool spring that we're experiencing right now, but I suspect it could be a little too sweet for really hot days. The rose here is not a freshly-cut, green stem kind of rose. Instead, it reminds me of some rose jam from the deli I once tried- sugared, sticky, drippy, and absolutely YUMMY. I think I agree with some here who claim this is not Guerlain-like, but it's very pleasant nonetheless!

I love this! Nothing like the original, why call it a flanker? Here’s my take on it, it’s a beautifully fresh green rose over a creamy lavender with a soupçon of nougat. I am not getting the citrus being a dominant note as displayed in the main accords list, it’s muskier than that. Huge compliment getter too, about 5 spritzes on leaving the house, it’s still radiating 3 hours later and I’ve had two people tell me I smell amazing. I just wanted to mention that when I first sprayed it on this morning, I got a slight sense of 190 ans, that could be the nougat note reminding me of the almond accord in 190. That one is still not in the data base although I submitted it in January. Edited this morning - after spraying again last night, I can still smell it this morning...not bad for an EDT!

This is a lovely perfume. I have the EDT. It seems to have 2 different pyramids. As if there are 2 different perfumes in one. In the air, it opens up with rose and goes into a heavy Povencale lavender. I have visited Provence. I also, grow French lavender which, to me, is the most beautiful of the lavenders. It's been hours and this rose lavender scent is still wafting all around me, after using 2 sprays. The rose is like a dry rose (not dried rose), so not a juicy, young rose. It's a little synthetic smelling to me. Then, when I get up close to my skin, I smell a clean musk and a fresh (not gourmand) vanilla. It's like 2 different perfumes in one. This is an all weather, all seasons style fragrance. It's really versatile.

There's something this fragrance has in common with Angel by Mugler, and that INITIALLY put me off quite a lot. I cannot sort it out, and the pyramids are not helping as apparently the two have nothing in common, but they do, so obviously either list is incomplete. But then, the dry down is beautiful I must say. A beautiful persistent rose, radiating from my wrist 13+ hours later, and it still has got that little something that gets to the back of my nose and throat, but it's not enough to make me ignore the beauty of this scent. Even though, not advisable for blind buy for the entire bottle IMO, a decant would be better for starters.

Love this! I was looking for a pinkish home spa fragrance that would help me relax and create a calm feeling, f ex before bed. Somehow I imagined that it should include rose, but I did not really like any rose fragrance that I tried, I'm just not into in-your-face floral scents. But this one has only a soft rose note combined with lavender and vanilla, which makes for a calming, soothing, comforting, and yet elegant scent that is almost addictive. A tiny bit goes a long way, it lasts for ca 6 hours. I am sensitive to fragrances and easily get a headache, but I have not had problems with this one (only a little is enough).

I"m trying to figure out the reasons that Bloom of Rose gets a very low score (3.16 at the moment) and so many dislikes. Is it a very bad, disturbing, unwearable fragrance (to me a gentle, easy to wear, elegant perfume) or its misleading name (it's neither a Mon Guerlain nor a rose perfume) makes people disappointed? If the latter, can our disappointment make a perfume to deserve such a low rate? If personal expectations play such a big role and we are that far from being objective on evaluating a perfume, I feel doubt about the reliability of the ratings, I'm sorry.

If you've ever smelled a Peace Rose, this fragrance is reminiscent of the beautiful yellow and pink tinged rose. This intro "Eau de Toilette" version of Bloom of Rose is fresh, brisk, citrusy, bright, and light in feel but strong in sillage and longevity for a fragrance of its nature. It's not syrupy at all, and not too terribly close to the original Mon Guerlain. It could easily be a separate fragrance. What it's not: syrupy, sweet, heavy, deep red rose. This is a perfect spring or summer scent to put a skip in your step.

I wanted to get the Bloom of Rose edp and ordered this by mistake. I was a bit disappointed as the reviews online are not very favourable about this fragrance. However, this is one of my best blind buys ever as to me, it smells a lot like Blush by Marc Jacobs, which I used to adore and now can’t get a hold of. The notes are not similar apart from a few and Blush doesn’t even have rose in it. I don’t expect great longevity, but it came at a good price so I don’t mind over-spraying.

A very successful blind buy for me. It is so lovely. Gentle, airy, very feminine and clean smelling floral. Not too sweet and definitely not loud and bombastic. Smells a little different to the current designer offerings and new releases that you smell everywhere. Some might find it a little boring, but it brings a smile to my face. As others have said, not a very prominent rose note. Inoffensive fragrance suitable for the office and for all ages. Am interested in trying the EDP.

After reading all of these reviews, I’m almost feeling bad about myself for loving this. Yikes.... The original Mon Guerlain EDP just has too much vanilla for my liking. I’m not really into gourmands or florals, Bloom of Rose has just the tiniest bit of rose – which I actually love, but usually gives me a horrible headache — a little lavender, and the freshness that makes it a lovely summer floral for me. I’ll quietly continue to love this one.

Fresh watery rose with soft lavender and sweetness. Beautiful, fresh and feminine. Impossible for anyone to find this offensive . It’s simple, and doesn’t change during its duration. I wore this a lot during my pregnancy because it was an easy reach and a lot of my more complex scents would annoy me. Haven’t worn it in a while and just revisiting again and reminds me how much I absolutely adore this fragrance. Pretty girl fragrance for sure

Adore Guerlain Bloom of Rose EDT Have taken advantage of Nordstrom sale 3.03 ounce bottle 3X's Also blend it with Gisou Honey Hair perfume... Constant compliments on these two scents. Guerlain Bloom of Rose EDT, is a modern version of a vintage-like Rose toilette, with the beautiful blending of Sambac Jasmine, Fruits (sexy never loud) & Tahitian Vanilla (which does not scream thankfully) Such pure perfection for my skin.

One of my favorites. There's a sparkling note in this that is just beautiful! It is pretty linear but it doesn't bother me at all. I have zero longevity issues, it lasts around 6 hours on me with one spray. It is also one of my most complimented scents and probably the closest to a signature that I have. I love Mon Guerlain but in my opinion this flanker just has that something special that takes it a step above.

My favourite Mon Guerlain flanker by far, maybe because it ́s the most different of them all. The citrus opening in this lifts it up from being a boring classy lady perfume to someone with a fizzy personality and young voice. Love the rose accent in the heart of the perfume and probably it ́s one of the reasons why I love it so much. Spring in a bottle, no great sillage or longevity though...
