Eclat Weekend

One weekend around my birthday while visiting my parents, I received this simple scent from my mother. It wasn't anything special, but it didn't bother me either, so I quite enjoyed wearing it the next few days. The following week, when I returned to my job in the capital, I received a ticket to the National Theater for Swan Lake from a friend. (Also as a birthday gift.) It was my first ballet experience and it was amazing, beautiful, breathtaking... Someone might think that it is inappropriate to wear such an ordinary scent for such an exclusive situation...but for me, since then, this fragrance has been indelibly associated with this beautiful time - late September, sunny days, breezy mornings, cold evenings, plus the scent of EW on the scarf from the previous day and the melody of a "swan waltz" sounding distantly in my ears ... this is how EW smells like to me. Endless nostalgia! I already have about the 3rd bottle - but not of this variant with pear (it's no longer produced:-(), but of the almost identical Eclat Femme Weekend. I don't use it often, but I think that as long as it's available, it will always be on my shelf - as a safe choice for any day when I just want smell nice to myself and remember those distant happy times... For me is this "cheap" fragrance more precious than the most expensive Chanel or another exclusive brand. I will never cease to be fascinated by this enormous power of fragrance to carry forever beautiful, albeit fleeting, moments of life!

This is my signature scent for this summer. It's very soft, bright, happy, carefree, tender, calm.. Like a morning breeze. This is what innocence smells like. I identify with it. This is a scent for delicate looking women, blonde hair and blue eyes. Women that look like fairies, It's not for women who want to be 'in the eye' of everyone. It's not seductive nor dominant. It's fresh but not bitter, it's very comforting and you can inhale it forever and not feel nauseous. I fell in love with the first sniff and I will continue buying it as long as Oriflame produces it.

On my skin it has crazy long lasting power, more then 12 hours! First this perfume is sour and sharp, after 1-2 hours it sounds sweeter, like a sugary lemon, and after 3-4 hours it's a very interesting intensive sour-sweet blend, but not so sharp any more. I am not really in love with it, but I like this perfume for great lasting power! I could feel it on my skin all day long.

If you love a simple ,fresh, feminine and fruity scent you will love this one. It's very light, fresh and delicate. You can smell lotus, pear, apple wild rose and bergamot. Suitable for summer day and the lasting power is good. The bottle is classic and nice. 8/10 for this one

i bought this perfume in a way or another you will like too light and fresh adorable fragrance suitable for summer time to sum up i liked it alot light friuty-floral mix :)

I can smell very intensive lotus flower, pear and peach. Nice and summery fragrance. And god price. I would recommend it for summer days :)

Somehow it smells like Gucci Rush 2 on my skin with a little hint of pear

Unique, very long-lasting fragrance. It's my favourite summer parfume!

nice, femine, fresh. something between fruity and powdery scent

i wrote my review elsewhere, so here it is again if it helps anybody :) i got it today and lost it today too :D so i'll just click "i had it" button for the heck of it even though today is its first release without further ado, here we go... let's compare and contrast: top notes: the original has some apricots (not written in the notes but their scent is definitely there on my skin), they're replaced with pear middle notes: E has violets mostly and this one has wild roses (i don't get the lotus note) finally, E has a stronger dry-down which is musky in both fumes but definitely lighter in EW to sum up: just like what i expected, it's so light but yet a nice floral peach-kissed scent, i like a little bit of peach in a scent, it's detectable to my nose in the beginning of the dry-down, it's soft and feminine in a way here's the catch, since the original is already floral, with a musky dry-down, kissed with a certain fruit, lasts for a couple of hours and very light; then why make another edition which is basically the same but lighter?? it's really nice but why, i'm bewildered... i have lots of floral frags and much better ones containing peach notes. bottle already snatched by cousin :D it's too light and she just had a baby so it's perfect for her; as for me, if it's not discontinued, i'll include it in my EDT collection to tease myself basically :p

I just received this one yesterday but have only tested it out this morning.Elact Wknd smelt so promising on paper and yet so completly harsh ,very sharp and unbalanced on my skin.I've come to the conclusion that it must be the white peach which is reacting really badly with my body chem as all i can smell on me is completly white peach dominating and sadly none of the other notes to subdue it!. lasting power seems very good.This one is definatly not for me. Ill pass it on to my sister or mother as we all hav different blood types and suit completly different perfumes from one and other.Am gone to have to scrub off this perfume now that i cant bare smelling myself in and switch to wearing ck beauty for the day.

This was a pleasant surprise from a second hand bundle buy. I usually dislike lotus fragrances as to me they smell muddy but this one is fresh, powdery, girly, I like it! Aquatic done right for women. Smells like the first warm spring day - having fun with your friends in the park where it smells a bit like freshly cut grass, spring flowers and lokum with powdered sugar. The only down side is that after 15min it seems quite subtle, it is still there just not as noticeable, very soft and gentle, perfect for the office.

Eclat Weekend became one of my favourites of all Oriflame perfumes, as well as Love Potion, Urban Lovers for her and Miss o Fashion princess. This is probably the freshest perfume I have ever smelled. It ́s very watery because of that lotus note and I can definitely smell pear note too. Also kinda reminds me of Love of pink by Lacoste, has the same kind of freshness...AMAZING FOR SUMMER! AND the lasting power is great!!!! Really..up to 6 hours, which is VERY GOOD for Oriflame perfume!

Once you sniff it, you want it bad.I dont know if i have messed up nose, but month after i bought it and used it, it started changing in a negative way for me...there were times i couldn't even stand it.Not sure if it was because i got used to the smell already, or because of season changing.This is an EDT you starve to have, but later you feel like ''why's that..'' or at least that's me.

It's a nice light-fresh-floral-fruity perfume!It's perfect for summer and every day use.At first ,it is sour fruity - you notice the wonderful pear note easily ,then with the time it becomes little more musky and gentle floral .Feminine,fresh,chic,at good price but it's not long lasting.

I think its description shoud be aquatic floral then fruity maybe lotus and bamboo gives this aquatic sense theb comes the rose very noticable by the way hint of peach.very very light fresh scent it needs more citrus accord to have an uplifting effect very soft and delicate aaaand faint

I got it today, the packaging is really simple and classic the smell is clean, fresh in a classic and feminine way, you can definitely smell pear a lot of it and bergamot, I'm happy I got it !!!!!

Its asummery fresh smell u can smell strong peach smell abit oear in there something sweat and white floral u can wear it day times or office its afresh smell

That's a successful dupe for burberry weekend. A powdery-peachy scent for spring and summer!

made me feel like I got out of shower CLEAN simple floral pear fragrance

simmilar to gabriela sabatini perfume floral, sweet and summer perfume

Nothing overwhelming, a faint scent, subdued,simple, fresh and typical. Not sweet at all, but enough juicy. Slightly powdery in the drydown. Very versatile, although for a night out you might want to wear a glamorous scent. Nothing groundbreaking either. Appropriate for all ages, even for teens, e.g your eleven year old daughter can successfully pull this off. Safe scent definitely. Opens with bergamot and pear. I'm grateful that the bergamot isn't sugary, because I hate sugary perfumes. Pear is a little chemical, and not a realistical one; which is easy to tell, really, go sniff some well done peary perfumes and you will understand right away. Florals here are so sour, another good thing. Musk is undetectable to my nose, and honestly they just needed a fixative, so the easy option is musk; and artificial woody notes, that don't even help the perfume to smell woody. Something greenish, lot of peach. The drydown is an aquatic-somehow-bitter (I guess it's a weekend at the sea) peach and lotus. I like a bitter perfume, and so far I haven't had problems with ozonics/aquatics, but this is so boring and generic that I don't even bother correcting it by layering. Gives me headaches sometimes. P.S.: I have both Burberry Weekend and Oriflame Eclat Weekend and to my nose, they are distant distant cousins. The Burberry version is worth the money.

fresh and citrusy with a little bit of lotus flower.it's very light,perfect for summer.But over all the fragrance is not that good as the packaging. After a while i remembered which perfume it reminded me of - Northern Lights another one from the same house :D Why? All in all i won't be buying it anymore.I think there are better summer fragrances for my taste

So sweet but boring scent :/ good stayingpower though. A good buy if you like the perfume, since it lasts a long time.

Lovely scent but doesn't last long. The smell goes away after an hour :(

Among all the perfumes of famous brands, I always get compliments for some less familiar and cheaper fragrances, such as this one. Fresh but sweet and very feminine. Although when I wear it i don't smell anything, but people around me (men and women) are enchanted (:

Oriflames BEST offer of parfumes and it gives you what it promisses by her ingredients. Floral but fresh and femine. For the price a good piece if you buy it by season speciall offer in a catalougue.It somehow reminds me on LAncome rumeur 2 rose.

Though notes sound very nice, Eclat Weekend is a simple generic fruity floral. Slightly tart, slightly citrusy, with a hint of transaprent lotus. Discreet, non-offensive, office kind of scent. Decent sillage and staying power as for Oriflame.

I am surprised that Oriflame is long lasting, eau De Toilette. It stays longer on my skin or cloths than any other popular brand perfumes.If you like fruity and fresh perfums that perfume is designed for you. Dec 01 2011

I'm getting married next week :) This is what I'm gonna wear, since it's fresh, summery and floral. It's perfect for hot summer days, when you need something lively, like a spring of cool water :)

it's really pleasant, a bit chamomile like, tender and innocent. If the color beige had scent, Eclat Weekend would be it.

I want to get this, mainly for the bottle. As for the smell, I would say a generic fruity-floral for the summer.

It reminds me of Clinique Happy which I had, is was nice wearing it but don't want to buy anymore.

i tried it when i was at oriflame company, i like it its fresh, fruity and a little bit to sweet.

A little bit sweety for me. Its aroma is disappearing too soon.

I got the new edition "eclat femme weekend" ..the same almost.

I made the review below but was involuntarily signed out :P

Fresh, appropriate for the office.
