Mauboussin Rose Pour Elle

Very pleasant scent from Mauboussin and the Best Roses parfum for me. It's totally underrated (despite that there's nothing that super-phenomenal). A lot of celebrities scents get so much attention that they totally don't deserve. Who needs them, when we have such a nice compositions like "Rose Pour Elle"?!... This one is not too sweet, gentle and fresh, beautiful pink roses covered with morning dew and with some fresh juicy fruits notes, green leaves / cassis and soft sweet / light gourmand notes. I can't detect specifically caramel note here. Rose smells here fresh and supported by sweet accord like roses jam. Lucky me, but I'm not getting anything synthetic. Overall in the beginning it reminds juicy peaches with apricots and fruity-tea scent ,later it brings more of cassis and green notes and main rose notes in it and getting more of sweet / slightly sweet notes in the base. Its suitable more for a spring or summer seasons. Good longevity 6-8 hours with delicate but detectable silage. I love it as a daily routine scent . By the way it has something similar in developing with "Flower party" -red one of Yves Rocher, but definitely much more sophisticated.

I tested this recently and got all excited about the delicious sweet citrus opening. Then I remembered it was supposed to be rose and I was confused. But after around 15 mins it was suddenly completely different and it smelled gloriously like Vera Wang Truly Pink (with a little more sweet fizz). I got even more excited as that is my fav rose fragrance. I wanted to buy it on the spot! But I forced myself to wait and see how it held up throughout the rest of the day. I could still smell it in the evening, not particularly strong but not bad for one spritz.

Floral, warm, and feminine fragrance. Something between that old simple scented pens and floral notes. I'm looking for something similar for a long time. Is not that old lady rose scent that gives you headaches, is something youthful and fresh. Must buy it! It will become my signature more so as it is not known.

I LOVE Mauboussin Elixir so I wanted to try other perfumes from this brand.in a perfume shop I saw testers of Mauboussin pour Elle,A la Folie and this one.all three of them were pleasant,lovely modern floralfruitys but among the three,this one grabbed my attention more probably because the other two were very light/faint and not much memorable Mauboussin Rose Pour Elle is a modern rose fragrance with a sweet,fruity undertone.it was a quick test so I couldn't go through the notes or scent development and details.I just find out that rose is the most dominant note but other notes are well blended and don't fight with each other.I couldn't pickup caramel(which is a pity as I'd loved to find a gourmand rose) but it's sweet while has some freshness.it didnt wow me and was quite simple but didn't smell cheap or unbalanced even a bit.it reminded me of my beloved Juicy Couture Viva la juicy Rose a bit.when I smelled the paper blotter that it was sprayed on it these were the first words that came to my mind: Pretty,girly,rose,cheerful,romantic,youthful,princess I'd really like to take it home but even though I liked it,I didn't find it fair to pay 47$ for it.but if I come across a good deal I would happily buy it and write a better review

I blind bought this based on reviews and the fact that this was only $27. I had to give this away after using a third of the bottle. I think my chemistry doesn't work well with this fragrance as it smells like both a watery, slightly fruity and powdery rose. Like a rose scented body wash on the skin after showering. Ultimately I used this as a linen spray because the scent was comforting and calming. 4 people commented that it smells like Jason's body wash on the skin. A handful of people thought it was a "dated" (50+) scent and it took me 3 months to finally find someone who would accept this from me. A nice fragrance for a body wash, but ultimately I didn't find any joy wearing this on my skin. The handfuls of "meh"/negative comments from the people around me made me hesitate to wear this. I envy the people who can enjoy and wear this as I love rose scents! Lasts around 4-5 hours. Up to 6/7 hrs on clothing. Soft sillage.

Elegant bouquet, not sumptuous, wearable all day preferably during cooler. Pear caramel and amber create a slightly sweet that binds nicely with the flowers, and neither dominates the other notes. The perfect balance is loosely supported by the musk base, making it similar to creating a stylish sweater to put on his back in the early spring days or evenings. Not suitable for young to the hairspray effect that can remember.

Great perfume in a heatwave. It’s fresh, but gone in 10 minutes, except on clothes.

I just got this in the mail from one of the discount houses, truly at a great price. It is a lovely perfume. I think of it as a "hidden rose" as it doesn't just scream rose. It is more floral than fruity, with a definite musk base. I don't get caramel, thank goodness. I keep smelling my wrist it is so nice. It reminds me of Oscar de la Renta's floral perfumes, not as complex as Oscar's 2011 'l spirit de Oscar, but just as nice. It has some sillage and longevity, as I've had it on three hours and it is still nice. I would describe it as a very natural, citrus rose musk perfume. The rose is somewhat green. I'd definitely recommend this one; I hope it lasts longer than 3 hours, but even if not I'd still recommend it. The prices are so good I may buy another bottle! The bottle is quite beautiful and heavy, which is a nice plus. This isn't nearly as strong or eccentric as its excessively "plumy" sister the original Mauboussin, which is nice and compelling, but has way too much plum for my taste.

I received this beautiful fragrance as a gift, and I describe it as following: Opening: similar to "Beyond Paradise Blue Estée Lauder for women" and when i saw the notes I knew why! both start with a citrus smell that is very refreshing and sweet at the same time. It also has a vibe that is similar to "Bright Crystal Versace for women" that is a little bit aquatic even though it has no aqua notes. My husband found it very similar to Bright Crystal too. Its dry-down reminded me so much of "Bebe Bebe for women" and also i can see why when comparing the notes, the musk here is very tender, clean and especially not cloying since my sense of smell changed while pregnant and it's the 1st perfume I tolerate for now. Overall, I give it a note of 8/10 with moderate sillage and longevity. Suitable for spring/summer, office/daywear time. I wore it today for the 1st time and started to get complements already, I think this is a good sign!

nice perfume.on the blotter I smell so much cassis and mint mixed with fresh pink roses.on my skin it's quite different.it's sweeter and muskier. but I'm not wondering as the perfumes tend to be sweeter on my skin. I think it's a high quality perfume.a modern rose for younger audiences in a beautiful bottle which is pretty suitable for summer. unfortunately the middle notes lack the depth I seek in a perfume.maybe it's because of its freshness but it smells very similar to drugstore perfumes at this stage which I don't admire.by the way patchouli haters will like it. it can be worn all day during summer easily.

I bought it as I already have seven Mauboussin perfumes and I enjoy most of them. As soon as it arrived I applied it to my wrist and went to do the house chores. Now, about ten hours later I have the most delicious last notes, something sophisticated and elegant. After all, that’s the most important bit - how it smells when the most of the smell is gone.

Opens as a lolly water, fruity generic. No love lost here. It does redeem itself with a strange carnation type middle that is more like 'Old Spice' than one would want in a pink perfume. The sprayer doesn't work properly, grumble grumble. Save your dollars for Quel Amour or Stella, this Mauboussin is no great shakes.

A watery and raspberry-jam rose scent. There is little evolution; the first spray is pretty much what you get until it dissipates. It has a refreshing quality brought upon by the citrus presence in the opening, and dainty amount of green in the dry-down. Pretty, but lackluster. Not worth purchasing at full price.

I think it's funny when I see reviews that say "I like it but it kept changing!" I'm pretty sure that's the intent, people. Perfumes are supposed to have at least 3 stages....I think you need to get some education before making inane comments.
