Trésor

Exactly why I LOVE it! based on review right below) EDIT 5-2104 - That review has been down rated and removed I suppose. The one below mine now is not the review I was referring to on original post which described it as "women over 35" and "generic, powdery, floral potting soil." Afterall, women over 35 can't help but adore smelling like generic, powdery, floral potting soil. Depends undergarments, mothballs and rotten cedar too. Don't forget those. Your review just helped me decide on the largest edp I can find. It will surely be my new signature. I can't wait. It's perfectly fine to not like Tresor.. but are you serious? Have you sampled the vintage 90's version, the original? It's damn gorgeous as it gets. Vintage Tresor is bright and sparkly... like it's name "treasure", and one of the silkiest, richest, finest, classiest perfumes in the world (my opinion). The composition is so well blended it is hard to detect particular notes. The rose in Tresor is velvetty and phenomenally special. Using blue/purple florals rather than yellow the mix is exquisite. I love the smell of but cannot tolerate wearing yellow florals such as Poeme without a feeling of nausea and suffocation. Ironically both Lancôme masterpieces, seems there is a likeness in composition; well rounded, masterfully blended, both intensely ripe in the perfect way... Tresor is amber/gold in color but has a rose/lilac/orris smell. Though beautiful, Poeme is completely yellow and overwhelming to/on me as in the way of feeling as if I have fallen into a casket of honeysuckle nectar and buried alive in it. It stifles while Tresor breathes in enough fresh green somewhere to offset the burial feeling. The two are different scents and my intent was not a comparison review but an assessment of yellow floral vs purple on my skin and to my nose. I smell a lovely carnation in Tresor though it is not listed. It is sweet as can be in a decadently rich, super femme fatale glamorous way and it is concentrated. Using lightly is suggested. Sillage is forever. I am working on my own fragrance for the younger women who decide which way a woman should smell at a certain age. It is comprised of only three notes; none of that complex 35+ stuff - Fruit Loops, cotton candy and marshmallows with a possible hint of bubblegum. (Still undecided on that as yet; a toss-up between bubblegum and Skittles). It will be called "Tinkerbell Sensuelle" or "Lollipop Lolita". Enjoy! ;)

Launched in 1990 and created by the legendary nose Sophia Grojsman, Trésor is not simply a perfume: it is a monument of liquid perfumery, a manifesto of absolute romanticism that marked an era and which continues, decades later, to enchant. Its inverted pyramid bottle, reminiscent of a rough and precious diamond, contains an amber-colored liquid that promises (and maintains) timeless elegance. A Triumph of Peach and Rose. Trésor is the undisputed king of floral-oriental perfumes. Its structure is famous for not following the classic linear evolution, but for gravitating around a monumental agreement. As soon as it is vaporized, Trésor hits the senses with a velvety and fruity sweetness. It is not the fresh and juicy fruit that modern perfumes have accustomed us to; it is a peach in syrup, warm and ripe, enveloped in the softness of apricot peel. In a few minutes the true beating heart of the fragrance emerges: a powdery and opulent rose, made almost creamy by iris and heliotrope. There's an "old-time makeup powder" feel to it, incredibly sophisticated and reassuring. The base is a warm and enveloping embrace of vanilla and amber, which blends with the skin creating a sensual, intimate but very powerful aura. It smells of warm skin, of sincere hugs, of a mature, aware and welcoming femininity. Trésor is a child of the 90s, an era in which perfumes had to get noticed. Duration: Extraordinary. On the skin it easily exceeds 8-10 hours, while on clothes (especially coats or scarves in winter) it can last for days. Sillage (Sillage): Intense. It's a fragrance that fills the room. Very few sprays are enough to be noticed, so the advice is to dose it carefully. It is perfect for the evening or for cold days when you are looking for a "cashmere sweater effect". It's not a "youthful" fragrance in the modern sense (no hints of marshmallow or cheap caramel); It beautifully dresses a person who loves classic elegance, romantic nostalgia and who is not afraid to wear a perfume with a strong personality. Trésor is a masterpiece of perfumery. It may seem "important" or even retro for those accustomed to today's light waters, but it remains a "treasure" in name and in fact. It is the scent of romantic love, timeless and precious. If you love powdery notes, rose and peach, this is your holy grail.

This is a beautiful reformulation of the vintage original vintage the first edition from 1952. One spray or two and you're in a gorgeous scented cloud. This is a very grown up, sweet, and lovely feminine fruity floral scent. Because it has bergamot orange, apricot and vanilla, to me this is a gourmand as well. This opens with a sweet and soft peach and tangy apricot and orange pair. Bright, happy, delicious. It has for a moment, especially when the florals come through, a kind of aura a bit like Yves Saint Laurent Paris; but in a different way of it's own. The fruit fades away but the peach lingers on a bit. Then the apricot blossom opens the door to the floral bouquet aroma that follows. I am smelling lilacs and roses (pink) and a distinct heliotrope and iris. These are flowers I really love so to have them all in one fragrance is Heaven. Absolute Heaven. The vanilla begins to jump up from the base. Now it's a gourmand vanilla, with some warm touches of spice, some amber, sandalwood and musk. This perfume is powdery. But not terribly powdery. The feeling it creates is of a young and very pretty1950s suburban mother, quite lovely in a floral print dress, in spring and summer time, at a garden party. The dress might be bright yellow or orange with flower pattern nor polka dots. She has coiffured hair, pretty colored nails, very good make up, and is like Betty on Mad Men; or Donna Reed. The image of a stereotypical fifties domestic goddess who kept the house spotless, cooked all the meals, did the shopping, raised the kids, and loved her husband. Today with a more 'happy wife happy life' one sided kind of thing it's good to feel like a very happy housewife that this perfume makes me feel like. And that's not a bad feeling to have either, even in a scent. It has a 1950's retro feel but for the time of it's release, quite wearable for the 90s. Today it is outdated so you'll definitely stand out wearing it. I think it smells great at picnics in spring and early summer. The scent is long lasting for hours and hours (over 5 and 6) and has very good sillage but its subtle if applied the right way with a light touch. I find this perfume to be so delicious and beautiful. May this one never be discontinued like it's original vintage.

Sometimes I feel like there's just no hope for society. Like now. Trésor, a masterpiece of perfumery has a 3.65 rating while Squismallows Pink Possibilities has 3.9?!? And the utterly shameless cash-grab that is Bath & Body Works Bridgerton Diamond of the Season has a rating of over 4?!? We've all lost our collective minds. Not only does Trésor define an era, and not only was it created by one of the greatest noses in history, but it is a work of art. I have to wonder if people are just spraying it on a tester and going from there. This perfume must have the warmth of skin. It doesn't sing on clothes or test strips- or wrists really. I spray it in the center of my body and it becomes an absolute scent orchestra. Admittedly, like many Grosjman creations, the opening is challenging. I get a slightly pungent sandlewood and a very earthy, rooty Orris. On first sniff I didn't love the opening - or understand it - but after a couple tests it struck me as feeling quite organic and it's grown on me now that I know what follows. That rooty aspect fades gradually over 30-45 minutes and the next phase is a tapestry of autumn hued scents - no single note stands out, the blending is expert - but the overall mood is of warmth and afternoon sunlight and of smiling, loving, slightly blousy aunts. Ina Garten would wear this. I had trouble finding the peach at first because its not fresh or dessert-sweet - more like a peach that's been poached in rosewater. The last phase is the Iris - cosmetic and a bit waxy. It hits a good 7-8 hours after application and it smells like high-end face cream with a little SPF. I love it. All of the comments about over ripe fruit and cloying sweetness baffle me. In an age of nuclear sugar bombs, this could almost be considered a chypre 😆. The scent is ostensibly dense and complex, especially at first - but the heart has such a warm cosmetic scent, that I'd almost classify this as something for clean girls. Luca Turin gave this a 4/5 and described it as "the trashiest, most good natured pink-mohair-sweater....thing imaginable". I suppose it's insolent of me to disagree, but I'm a practical, L.L. Bean, farm-co-op-type of New Englander who generally loves skin-scent musks and I think it suits me perfectly.

An old school classic, which despite being a scent made for ladies, I love to spray it on me and be emcased in its vintage aura (Powdery peach musk with some woodiness, veiled in a rose that comes across as dusty, and I mean that in the nicest way). Whenever I use this fragrance, which is generally when I am at home after an evening shower, the fragrance transports me back in time to growing up in the 90s And early 2000s, which is the main reason I got this fragrance and will keep around coz of this. I've worn this fragrance out maybe three times max and I've gotten a compliment or two, though a few times I was told that I smell like one of their grandparents, (which I don't mind as to me smelling old is nothing to make me go cold, I love classic scents). Though recently I have noticed a change in perception towards this scent, and a few other classics, it's almost as if younger generations are starting to open up to old school scents. So now is a good time to use something others would consider a old persons perfume (that statement is rubbish in my opinion). Old is gold and tresor is indeed a treasure, so let the others smell modern with their current releases and modern bestsellers, and go against the norm and try out Tresor or any other 80s 90s or early 2000s fragrance heck even older the better, and smell new against what's currently hip and happening. Opium, Aramis, Tresor, Poison, Chloe Narcisse, Chanel no 5, White linen, Davidoff Cool Waters, Joop Femme, etcetera are just a few of countless vintage scents that in 2024 smell new and trailblazing as opposed to going with the trend. Longevity 6-8 hours Projection arms length. Overall an 8/10 in my books. Old is Gold and tresor is quite a treasure.

I'm so surprised by the negative reviews/ratings! Tresor is a beautiful perfume---a real perfume, not glorified body spray or bottled candy like most popular fragrances these days. Perhaps the negativity is due to it having been popular for a long time, so obviously there's memories attached to it, some bound to be negative. However, saying Tresor is nasty because it smells like a old lady is, along with being offensive and ageist, just plain ridiculous and would not me unlike saying only old ladies should wear lipstick or diamonds---which is some people's opinion, but I have no qualm with saying they're plain wrong. What makes Tresor smell "old"? The fact that it doesn't smell like Light Blue or Flowerbomb? Ha! That's a compliment. Tresor doesn't smell like the majority of scents on the market, which is why it's special. Tresor is a peachy dream; it smells like a beautiful woman's clean skin. It smells happy, romantic, classic, timeless, ageless. I'm barely 21 and I love it; my Mom loves it as well. To say a perfume has an age limit is ignorant and ridiculous. The amount of hate thrown towards older women is shameful and pathetic. You don't like a perfume? Perfectly fine, you have the right to dislike something. But saying you don't like it because it smells gross like an old person (because ew old people, right? It's not like they're the reason you're here or anything...) is stupid. Anyway, to summarize the perfume itself. This is Lancome's masterpiece. The bottle is beautiful, the silage is just the way I like it (noticeable but not overpowering) and the longevity is great. I also want to mention the ads: they're gorgeous. Penelope Cruz is so beautiful.

How is it even possible, that this treasure has the score only 3,64 whilst so many contemporary superficial sugary fruity syrups has higher score??? Is this the sign that world is coming to the end? This is classic gem for any age group besides teenagers. It is not matronly, it is not old or old fashioned, it is not boring, it is not average to be scored so low. It is extraordinary perfume, it is everything one woman can wish for. Apricoty, peachy, powdery, rosy with hint of lilac, lily of the valley and jasmine, iris is giving exactly the right amount of powderiness, amber, vanilla, sandalwood are providing the warmth, pineapple apricot and peach sweeten and bring juiciness to the whole composition. This scent is hughing, calming and alluring. It is sophisticated, elegant, timeless, charming, ultra feminine, classic and classy. Suitable for business meeting, but also for date, for opera, dinner, family gathering. Complimets are guaranteed. This could be easily the best creation of the genius Sophia Grojsman. I love almost anything this woman brings to this world. But particularly this and Boucheron Jaipur are my personal favorites. Tresor is one of my top favorite perfumes of all time and it deserves to be cherished and appreciated much, much more. I remember all the commercials with Isabella Rosellini from nineties, I am glad that Lancome hired her back and she should be the face of this scent again, because this perfume has no age.

I first became interested in perfumery back in 2006 during my first year of college. I went to the local drugstore and was looking through the glass at all the pretty bottles and the colors of the perfume. The upside down pyramid bottle of Tresor with its black cap and soft peach colored juice stood out to me. I bought it without testing it. I went to my car and opened the matching peach colored box and held the bottle in my hands. I had never owned a single perfume in my life, just what seemed the same scratchy and sharp mens cologne I would always get for my birthday. I could never bring up the courage to ask for perfume as a gift instead for fear I would be shamed by my Dad. Sitting in my car after having purchased this perfume with my own money it felt extra special to me. I opened the bottle and sprayed some on my wrist. The first time I ever smelled this perfume I will not forget! It was beautiful and soft with a warmth I had not imagined. The powdery peaches and apricots stood out nuanced with a soft and delicate rose. I sprayed a couple squirts on my shirt and knew this was the beginning of a long romance with Tresor. This perfume gave me the courage to be more open with myself in a very confusing world. I wore it all through nursing school and still wear it to this day. It will always remind me of courage and comfort, a soft presence that despite its gentleness is strong and refined. Certainly a treasure for me...

I discovered this in my mid 20's a decade ago, and I have never looked back. I got a huge bottle for my birthday when I turned 25 and I still have the bottle. I've kept it under stable conditions and it still smells amazing and it doesn't take much of this to leave a scent trail. I've always been given compliments by people saying I smell so good and clean. This perfume debuted the year I was born, and I don't find it dated or too much. Body chemistry does play a role in how fragrance smells on others but what I think makes the biggest difference is CONFIDENCE. You need to wear a fragrance and not let it wear you, EVER. I've always been confident and absolutely sure of how I want to express myself so I find it effortless to wear all kinds of divisive fragrances such as this one, Angel, Alien, Avon's Far away, Guerlain Insolence edp, and Givenchy Pi. I've gotten nothing but compliments from all of those fragrances. Love yourself, be confident in your being, and wear whatever fragrance makes you happy! Life is too short to care about what perfect strangers or straight up haters think about you or anyone else. Do things for you, wear things for you. It makes all the difference.

I have a nostalgic association with this scent because when I was wayyy too young for it I convinced my mom to get it for me for Christmas. I was a 16 year old wanting to smell like a film noir leading lady, smoking a long cigarette lol. I was very into vintage jewelry and vanities and such and this scent evokes that kind of elegance from the past. I used to spray one wrist and collapse onto my bed daydreaming about velvet gowns, fur coats, and red carpet events. It is certainly sweet. Very much a sweet apricot and peach, almost like a cordial but it’s so powdery/ashy it stays more dry rather than syrupy. What I don’t see in the notes or reviews though is a little spicy touch! That’s what I remember loving as a teenager who wore a lot of cloying bath and body works scents. It offers a bit of sexy intrigue with that teeny spicy sharpness. I think she’s very pretty and signature worthy (for cold weather) if it suits a personality. Part of me still wants to wear it, but one time I recognized it blasting from my best friend’s glamorous busty mom and she wore it well. I'll probably just sniff and smile from time to time.

I had a bottle of Tresor over a decade ago and that one was a lush, fruity peach-rose combo that last for ages before dying down to a sweet, ambery base. Makes me feel elegant and put together, so it's a favourite work perfume for me. But I was keen to try other things as well so once I finished my bottle I moved on to the latest Lancome in town: La Vie Est Belle. Fast forward a few years later and I feel like I'm in the mood for her once more, but now something about her definitely changed. Yes, the fruity burst is still there, but it quickly died down to a dewy, soapy rose tinged with iris. She wears much lighter too and I had to reapply in the middle of the day to keep the scent bubble going. On the bright side, she felt much younger and less dated than before so if you ever felt like she's too "granny" for you, it might be a great time to revisit her again. Those who love the og should take note as well as this could be a no no for you. As for me, I'm fine with it. Tresor is not what she used to be, but I'm happy to have her back in my life again.

Yesterday l recived my very 1st vintage Trésor edp, a full 50 ml/1,6oz bottle! I bought it privat and was usure about the quality, but, oh my gosh how perfect it is, it smells exactly the same as in the shops in the 90thies! -And, thx a lot to the seller! Back than l sniffed Trésor over and over again, but l was a poor single mother, and, l was hung up in Roma and le monde est beau, Kenzo, but, l promised to give myself a big bottle some day in the future, even thoug l have been happy with my tiny miniatures. What's so special with Trésor, is the wondeful smell of peaches and apricots, witch l absolutely adore, and it blends so very well with my skin, there is also this beautiful vanilla witch makes me feel so very sophisticated, and, l think l must travel to Paris some day soon, and, congratulations with the Olympic games (watching telly now), and viva La France, and your beautiful fashion and perfumes!

Many, moons ago, when I was a young teenager wearing Impulse 02 and Body Shop Dewberry, I got a sample of Tresor free with a magazine or a gift from someone, I don't remember, but I was OBSESSED with it. Expensive perfumes weren't an option for me at the time, and by the time they were, my tastes had moved into darker, resinous, incense and Amber. I detested powder in perfume in my 20s and 30s, but I still remembered this tiny tester of Tresor and how grown up and warm and hug-like it was. Fast forward 30 years and I've learned to love powder. I bought a bottle. It is BEAUTIFUL and the biggest nosmic nostalgia hit I've taken in years. Yes, it's a bit retro. Yes, if you don't like powder, you won't like this. It's icing sugar topped peach pie with the dryness of Iris and lilac. A real fluffy sweater mom-hug of a scent. Dries down to a wafty floral fruit vanilla. Just lovely.

This bottle is so beautiful and elegant. I’m on my second bottle of this. There is something vintage but very classy and timeless about this perfume that when I where it I feel so very put together and lady like. I haven’t tried the newest formulation people talk about but I am curious how it differs from my bottle. I believe my bottle is about 4 or 5 years old. It is a large bottle and I have other perfumes I like to rotate so this one will last me a while. I’ve always loved this tooth ever since it came out. I was in middle school and smelled it in the mall when women used to stand there and spray you with perfume and give you samples as you walked by. I asked my mom to buy this for me for Christmas but she didn’t. I did finally buy it for myself years later. I don’t care if it’s not on trend. It’s beautiful. I think it’s soft and elegant and my husband loves it too.

In my mind... firstly, Sophia Grojsman can do no wrong in my book. Tresor is a banger, it’s iconic. Love it or hate it (but I love it!) Second, it’s Jenni Rivera’s signature scent (besides her own line). Jenni by Jenni Rivera is a cousin/una prima to Tresor, and is part of my long term collectibles as it’s discontinued, but Tresor is still going strong. Thirdly, I am in my mid 50s now, and unlike many, I adore powdery scents. I’ve worn them for literally decades, so the powder under the fruit does not bother me in the least — in fact, I prefer it over the peach (which is still subtle). Lastly, after the first hour, this fragrance turns to almost a waxy vintage lipstick scent which sends me over the moon. Not sure if it’s just my body chemistry working with the iris powder, but it goes full wax, lingering hints of powder, and I love it.

Trésor by Lancôme is an absolute masterpiece and one of my all-time favorite fragrances—I’m completely obsessed. It’s everything I could ever want in a perfume: timeless, elegant, and addictive. The way the juicy peach blends with the soft rose and warm musk is pure magic. It’s fruity powdery yet sophisticated, and it feel so special every time I wear it. What makes Trésor even more unique is its ability to linger beautifully—it leaves a soft, captivating trail that feels like a warm embrace. I love layering it with peach-scented bath products to enhance that juicy, fruity warmth, and it creates the most luxurious experience. It’s the kind of scent that gets compliments wherever I go and makes me feel confident and beautiful. Truly a signature fragrance I’ll never be without!

Although launched in the 1990, this represents a quintessential 80's scent to me, which reminds me of my childhood. I remember the graphic art for the perfume ads in the 80's magazines and TV and I often google them for nostalgia. Lancôme Trésor is an acquired taste for sure, and although I still do adore it, I myself am not always in the mood for it. But when I am, which is most of the time, it delivers all the bliss and luxury it has to offer! I love how ethereal and powdery it is with just the right hints of carefully selected fruits that complement the powderiness and the aldehyde base (to me anyway. I think it might be the Heliotrope that translates somewhat "aldehydy" to me). An absolute LOVE for the early 90's (80's presenting) good old trooper.

The original (which I have) is the EDP version of Caress Peach Silk original soap and body wash, to my nose anyway. I always suspected Sophia Grojsman created the Caress scent and that this formula (original) was very close. Warm, inviting, feminine, sensual, relaxing. Smells like an empress. I am reading a book about Agrippina (the Younger), so maybe that is why I make that association. Warm, peachy like peach compote, slightly spicy, fresh and soapy. This was ubiquitous in the 1990's, but enough time has passed I can enjoy it again. Beautifully elegant and rich. Makes me think of velvet and fireplaces in country houses, no particular reason. It's not even a little smoky. Just cozy, like a fireplace on a rainy night.

The perfume equivalent of the loveliest, soft furred, friendliest puppy leaping on your lap to give you the cuddle of your life. A cutie with an impeccable pedigree. My miniature bottle dates from 1999 with no degradation but added depth. (Lucky me.) But I would happily wear the current version. I'm surprised by so many sniffy reviews and the ubiquitous (yawn) 'old lady' comments from those who often prefer to smell like confectionery instead of fruit and flowers (yes, they are very present to my nose.) Tresor is far from subtle which is why I use it sparingly, but when I do, it feels so good to be able to shout from the rooftops rather than mumbling apologetically. A classic and a joy.

I'm one who this evokes sentimental memories for. This was the scent my late Grandma wore. I never knew the perfume's name, but I always smelled it on her sweater as she passed me during holiday dinners. It was a scent that I came to associate with her. After going through her stuff, I eventually found the bottle and immediately recognized the smell. The state of the bottle told me that this was one she savored for special events and cherished over many years. I'll never wear it, so that I can preserve my memories of it with her. But if you think it smells like old lady, you're probably right lol. It’s just that I like it in this case <3 Miss u, Gma!
