Tresor Eau de Parfum Lumineuse

Third time's the charm! I had to test Lumineuse because it has praline note in it, one of my favourite notes ever. First time I hated the smell because I found it too ozonic (to me it means there's sparkling water vibe going on), but I blamed the airport tester which maybe was expired. So I bought a tester. Second time trying I found that I don't like it again, because the ozonic thing came up again and it was piercing my nose. However, I still couldn't let this perfume go. Today, third time came up - I applied Lumineuse generously because it was a dull morning, I had to wake up early, summer's gone and I was just feeling sad, so I wanted something to lift me up. So I am sitting in a cafe in a big city (is it Paris?), wrapped up in a cosy sweater, it’s around 5PM, so there’s lots of people and traffic, and the cafe is busy, but I sit in the corner, facing the window, so I don’t feel rushed by them. I'm having a dense cake with red berry jam and some black tea with it. This is what I see when I smell Lumineuse. This is definitely a sweet perfume - I probably imagine black tea with my cake because I want some balance to it, but this sweetness is so preciously orchestrated to unfold under your nose! As for notes, praline is noticeable here, with syrupy rose floating on top and violet leaf giving that ozonic/metallic sharpness (I got used to it). I cannot detect vanilla. Musky/woody dry down. Sillage is soft, longevity is good, it’s been more than 9 hours since I applied the perfume to my wrists (I did not reapply) and this juicy candy rose marmalade is still lingering. Lumineuse is a lively, cosy and comforting autumn perfume, a hidden/forgotten Lancome gem, gourmand achieved in an uncloying, breathable way. It's like a date with yourself on a busy business day.

I added a sample of this to an order on a whim, thinking I wouldn't like it... it's actually kind of lovely and growing on me very quickly! It's light and delicate and sort of shimmery lacy pink smelling, if that makes sense? It smells iridescent and fragile and like everything delicately feminine, but it's not at all juvenile. If it's girly, I don't really think it is, it's girly in a winsome and womanly way. The thing that scared me off was the rose, but the rose in this isn't heavy or heady or headachey at all. I swear I can smell petals. There is something faintly fresh or fruity or watery or...I don't know, it gives me the idea of juiciness... that I can't place but I think it might be something to do with this rose note. I know I tried an indie perfume that I swore blind was full of apples, but the listed notes were rose heavy, so it might be like that... There's a bit of green/floral hint, and wafts of sweetness. From a distance, I get hints of it and something about it smells so good - I can't name what, it just smells like 'good, nice smell'. It's pretty lovely. I have got a bit of a stuffy nose and have just bombarded myself with a perfume with my hated patchouli on my other arm, so maybe I'm not doing this justice... but I do really like it so far. It's so charming and floaty and delicate, and I do wonder if I need to rethink my stance on rose - I always thought it was heady, heavy, old-ladyish, headache-summoning haze, but this light and young and lacy rose is actually really appealing and something I would like to wear.

Ladies & Gents I give you My Signature Fragrance!!! About a year ago, I was sniffing some Marc Jacobs gourmands at my local perfumerie when the lady behind the Lancome counter asked me - since I seem to love gourmands - if I'd like to try the new Tresor Lumineuse. I was hesitant to say the least, as I cannot stand the unbearable rose/candy uncomplicated sweetness of the original Tresors and all of the other pseudo-in love/midnight rose blah blah ad infinitum. I eventually gave in and let me tell you it was love at first sniff!!! Yummy praline, delicate rose, soft violet and slightly spicy vanilla is what I get from this perfume once it settles on my skin and this is by FAR my compliments galore scent, as EVERY time I wear it, men flock towards me and ask me stuff like "What the hell are you wearing, you smell delicious?!" "You smell good enough to eat" and "you smell so sexy" (I don't get this reaction with any other perfume!) Ladies, this one is a show stopper! best suited for winter or night time, it might smell sweet, nice and innocent but it is one Naughty Juice!!! PS: The longevity is amazing! I sprayed it on Saturday evening to attend a festival and I was complimented on Sunday morning at the gym with a "Mmm you smell yummy!" by a gay Greek dude during step class...

This scent is amazing and may become my signature! I am exploring the world of fragrances after having worn Cool Water Woman all throughout high school and then Euphoria Blossom for years after that so bear with me as I don't have the lingo down lol The original Tresor EDP is my mom's signature scent, so I have a lot of wonderful associations with it. Tresor Lumineuse features the same signature soft, beautiful rose from the original, without any of the fruit notes which don't play well with my body chemistry... especially in hot and humid Florida. Combined with the rose is the most heavenly praline scent ever! In fact, the two notes that my novice nose can distinguish are praline and rose. This fragrance is super feminine and makes me feel like I'm floating in a fluffy, cozy, cloud all day. And DH cannot stop nuzzling me whenever I wear it. Longevity is fantastic.... Just 2 sprays last all day on me. Edit: Something in this reminds me of In Control Curious by Britney Spears. But the rose, longevity, and sillage make this one a 1,000 times better. Also, the Lancome website does not list praline as a note. The notes according to their site are: Top Notes: Violet, Rose Heart Notes: Jasmine Absolute, Bergamot Base Notes: Kashmeran Wood, Vanilla

This is the perfume that started my obsession with fragrance!!! If you're familiar with my reviews your KNOW that I'm an amateur NOSE (and it is indeed large, in person). My mother used to own Tresor and I really liked it and tried to sneak into her boudoir for a spray or two... when I went off to university and I had the money to buy it, I thought it was waaay too sweet and mature for me, but then I discovered the Lumineuse version and I WAS HOOKED!!! For a decade, this sweet rosey, praline, powdery violet and sparkling gem surrounded me wherever I went, enveloping me in a cloud of deliciousness that always got me compliments (mainly from women)... It permeated my college years and my first few years post-university at work... honestly I have the sweetest and toughest memories associated with this fragrance. About 10 years ago I put Tresor Lumineuse down for good, now occupying a permanent, yet untouched area of my vanity, and occasionally I take a whiff or two to reminisce of the "good times" yet I do not wear it, as I'm all grown up now and I have moved on... I think it is still available for purchase so if you are a teenager or in your early 20s, I invite you to discover it and fall in love... Bravo, Ropion!

I just received my bottle today. Here is my first impression: When I first sprayed it, I thought I smelled something like grapefruit but it is the tart freshness of the violet leaves combined with the heartiness of the rose and the sweeter notes altogether combined that gives me that effect. Then the trademark Tresor rose (which is slightly bitter, but fresh) comes to surface. It is light, soft, classy, and feminine. I can smell sweet notes lightly wafting up from behind the rose. Suddenly the fragrance deepens a bit as the vanilla and praline surface and all of the notes come together. The Tresor rose, sweet notes, and musk make for a very light and smooth spiciness that keep this fragrance from becoming too young and girly. Near the very end of the fragrance, the rose fades, leaving behind light cocoa powder, musk, and vanilla sweetness. The dry down being too warm for summer; Tresor Lumineuse is best suited for spring and fall. This is a lovely fragrance. Delicate and feminine with light to moderate siliage and longevity. It starts out cool/fresh and feminine before becoming warm/sweet and a little *wink, wink* sexy. While the professional, classy rose reminds you it's Tresor.

The new Tresor Lumineuse is a winner in my book. It still bears a soft outline of the original Tresor signature in the topnotes, but it is pleasant, flowery, yet warm and complex at the same time. The violet leaves are a great addition to the fragrance, keeping it from being too sweet and giving it a great depth. This scent develops in a beautiful way over a couple of hours on your skin. The final drydown is a soft, sweet musky, faintly chocolate and praline scent that is truly to die for. The complexity and great development of this scent make it stand out from other recently released scents and make me want to wear this every day now. I do not really find this scent comparable to La Vie est Belle because La Vie is such a sillage monster. Tresor Lumineuse is a polite scent with some projection that lasts a long time on skin but it does not take over a room, it just steals your heart.

Update 10/8/21 *This is my signature scent* I cannot tire of this beautiful fragrance. It's so, so pretty, like a beautiful warm hug, gourmand and yummy without being cloying or juvenile, richly blended. It's how I want to smell & be remembered. I don't wear it every day, but certainly on special occasions. ❤ Tresor Lumineuse is a "ladylike gourmand." I bought it BLIND for the praline and rose notes and those are definitely the most dominant. It's quite soft and sexy, definitely smells Parisian (not that I've ever been to Paris, so take that with the proverbial grain of salt). It's yummy yet soft and inoffensive, like a cashmere blanket of fragrance. If you like Stella by Stella McCartney you will like this, it's sweeter but just as sophisticated. If you DON'T like rose, you won't like this.

Bought this for my 11 yr old daughter at Duty Free and now I regretting myself for not buying it for myself too as I couldn't find the Tresor Lumineuse anywhere near our home :( The original Tresor is purely sweet..heavy sweets and sometimes can caused you nausea/migraines (in my case), lovely but I can only wear it in winter/night time. But the new Tresor Lumineuse is totally diffrent, This is an easy scent that you can wear for the whole year. It's elegant, Light not as Light as Versace Bright Crystal/Gucci Bamboo, Sweet but not overly sweet/heavy, I can't detect any alcohol/synthetic in this perfume which is GREAT unlike any other famous fragrances. Creamy-vanilla but Def NOT sickening!, Ultra Feminine,Delicate, Not that unique but still Amazing! LOVE

i initially wanted to purchase Tresor Le Nuit but after smelling Lumineuse i had a change of heart. The more i think about it Le Nuit smells very similar to LVEB which is just too much for me. it is way over used and i can literally detect it on any female that has it on. Tresor Lumineuse is a sparkling beautiful, romantic, sweet, and elegant perfume that reveals class and sophistication. it is hands down one of my sexiest scents! its a total pick me up that can change anyones mood. i cant wait to use this in fall and winter. it is the perfect date night scent and a lot of men love and compliment this one. Its a true gem and every lady should atleast try this one x

I was sold by the rose praline vanilla combo and had this perfume under my radar for quite a while but was also hesitant as I couldn’t test it and had to blind buy, till I decided to finally buy it before it becomes very rare and hard to find. I’m glad I did. I own both la vie est belle and la nuit tresor and to me it does not smell like those two. It might have slight similarities but hey, that’s like 80% of gourmand perfumes out there. So don’t rely on that if you’re blind buying. It’s a very soft and powdery perfume with that makeupy powdery touch coming from violet leaves. Very delicate and feminine.

This is the rosey perfume I've been searching for to substitute for boucheron jaipur femme which is now discontinued. Actually I tried this when I meant to try original tresor. At first five minutes or so I wasn't impressed. So I said meh and walked away. After A couple of hours I smelled a sweet rose scent aaaannddd I fell in love with it. For five minutes or so it is really sweet with praline. And then it turns to a sweet rose scent. I can't detect any vanilla which I like this, too so it stops the scent to be cakey or something. And violet leaf is a great accord in this. I love this!

more wearable compare to original Tresor. it is soft and sweet powdery scent. praline,violet leaf,vanilla, musk and sandalwood are completely dominant notes. all in all - sexy, young, modern and feminine maybe not last longer on woman but it last 12 hours on my skin. (honestly) i put on this perfume at 7:00am and it's last until 7:00pm. Tresor L'eau de Parfum Lumineuse, La vie Est Belle EDP La vie Est Belle L'eau de Parfum Intense, Hypnose EDP Miracle So Magic My favorite list from Lancome because they last a very long time on my skin. (i have no idea) at least 10 hours on me.

I just love this scent. My mom had a bottle of the original Tresor in the 90s. She rarely wore it, but I remember it vividly. I tried this new version of Tresor because I like the idea of a sparkly praline twist on the original, and that's exactly what I got! It smells so familiar to me, but definitely different from the original. I see that a lot of people describe citrus perfumes as being "happy" perfumes. I'm not a big fan of citrus, so to me, this perfume is my happy perfume. It's sweet and kind of bubbly, but not heavy at all.

This is a shot of sparkling champagne flavored jello, with the thinnest skin peel of a young apricot, freshly torn delicate violet leaves and soft rose petals. Sweet and slightly fizzy--not a creamy praline scent but the kind of praline that is all sugar and no milk. This is predominantly candied fruits and leaves. Projects well in the first few hours. Dries down to a light vanilla sugar, but retains some of the fruit nectar in its heart. Lingers on clothing, but not so much on bare skin.

Elegant, classy... definitely safe but in a way that is warm and cozy. The opening on me was luscious, almost tropical in a way. The rose soon developed, but wasn't at all powdery. Throughout wear the praline kept it sweet while the rose and violet, while noticeable, took a backseat. Not sure I would wear this in warm weather, but it's fall and I find myself wanting to wear it when I'm feeling casual but ladylike.

I'm so sad I purchased the La Nuit Tresor flanker instead of this one. I thought I was going to like the La Nuit but it's too heavy and similar to Angel by Mugler. This one on the other hand is truly a luminous praline scent. It's beautiful, subtle, sparkly and only lightly sweet. It drydowns to a soft musk with subtle praline/chocolate nuances, but it never looses its effervescent qualities either.

Pralines and roses for woman in love Wonderful flanker of Tresor by Lancome. What a great idea to add praline note to this composition. This perfume is beautiful, truly beautiful. Pralines and roses? Very romantic combination. Praline is the most dominant note, then I detect rose, sandal wood and vanilla. Romantic, sweet, sensual.

Raspberry pancakes with ice cream and honey. This is the very antithesis of the tortured and complex self-image that I want to project to the world but my nose is glued to my wrist. I have no idea what the original smells like but this is fabulous.

My favorite autumn perfume. Strangely I barely sense the rose, but on me it develops to a walnut-rum praline, lightened by flowery notes. It is sweet, but not as cloying as mainstream ones nowadays. Long lasting on skin, good sillage.
