Rock'n'Rose Couture

Rock’n’Rose is charming and comforting perfume. It reminds me of my garden at the cottage where I grow blackcurrants with bushes of old roses and sweet honey like wildflowers. There is nothing edgy about this scent. It wraps around like a blanket on a cool starry summer night. It reminds me of a quiet time with the nature when I felt relaxed and happy. Blackcurrant in the opening is accompanied by tender scent of lily of the valley and bergamot. I love this trio. I think the choice of lily of the valley makes the opening classy and chic and compliments the blackcurrant really well. Lily of the valley here is not strong. They just add a nice touch to blackcurrants. The heart is gardenia and rose. There is something sweet and honey-like about the heart notes in this fragrance. It reminds me of a sweet and romantic pink rose. I guess the scent is a bit powdery but it is very classy and feminine. I would recommend this fragrance for someone who likes sweet romantic floral. Blackcurrants here are not as defined as in AMETHYST but I do love how they are paired with lily of the valley, so if you love blackcurrant scents like I do then you might want to give this a try. This perfume does not give me thrills or pushes the limits but it is lovely, romantic and so comforting to wear.

This fragrance was my favorite from the house of Valentino. Amazing spicy deep lovely feminine roses, quite long-lasting and romantic, but at the same time excites the mind and feelings..beautiful pinkish bottle covered with the beautiful black lace.. It was a sexy perfume! I would love to buy it..HEY, Valentino, you need to start to produce that beauty again! It was your best fragrance!

I think they both smell the same. I have the original and got this one thinking it was stronger and would last longer. I couldn't tell them apart, it's like the got the same scent and changed the bottle design to make it different. Well the more the merrier for me, I love them both. :)

Y'all, I NEED TO SHARE THIS. I've found a way to replicate this cornerstone of my young adulthood: https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/The-7-Virtues/Blackberry-Lily-70101.html layered with a rose perfume. I used Rose Amber from the same brand, but I will try others.

hmm i adore this frag! got to have a bigger bottle of it someday..at least if it doesnt dissapears when i ran out of mine! beautifull rose scent, someone actually inhaled when he passed me *lol* i couldnt help hearing it haha,a silent compliment i guess ;-p

I take it back!! I wore it today and I am still sniffing it and it's yummy!! I feel sexy in it!! It smells like roses with confectioners sugar and champagne!! Ahhh I may buy the big bottle .. :) mmm

i love this perfume and valentino didn't let me down when it came to lastingpower! this beauty does last the whole day plus the bottle is cute too! i want a second bottle of this!

Soft, beautiful and lovely scent. Bottle is lovely too :).. I liked it more than the other Rock and Rose versions.. but the only problem is that it does not last long on me..

Why oh why do they discontinue the best fragrances?! This was fabulous! I received so many compliments when I wore this. Please bring it back with the original formula.

I was expecting more. It's okay. A nice sweet rosy scent. If I'd spray more I may get a headache. It smells kinda 90's as well. Not bad though!!

It's not a very special perfume, but it smells delish, and my husband is absolutely crazy about it! The kind of smell men seem to like a lot!

LOOVE IT! I've tried it today and fell in love with it.It's so feminine,romantic and very long lasting. As for the bottle: just wonderful!

Rock N' Rose Couture is similar Cacharel Lou Lou, for me... Couture's bottle is more fascinating then the others..

if anyone has a bottle they want to swap,pm me! :)) looking for this one

My fav! I miss the gold era of valentino perfume

Such a great combination of notes, which create an amazing perfume like this one. A rosy and flowery fragrance, with a feminine and warm character. The top notes are fresh, you feel the mix of lily of the valley and bergamot. The rose in the middle note is very dominant and has a very feminine/soft touch because of the orange blossom. After a few hours, you are left with more comforting notes like orris and vanilla. Overall, such a harmonious scent, which I really enjoy wearing and would probably always adore. The lasting power is phenomenal, I can still smell the base notes after 12 hours of wearing it. R'n R Couture is a light perfume, but it has enough power to get completely captivated by it. In my opinion, this fragrance suits better for a mild spring or summer day, the effect wouldn't be the same on winter days. The pretty bottle suits the scent, I also think this version is the best of the R'n R flankers. Just like a melody on a rock concert ;)

I like the previous reviewer's description of dark rose. This smells dark to me as well, a night scent. Very rose with this fun tangy black currant swirling in harmony. Very intriguing. This almost reminds me of skittles, though I wouldn't classify this as necessarily sweet. I know black currant is a skittles flavor in other countries so perhaps this description will resonate with people familiar with black currant skittles. Chew on some of those while sniffing a rose at midnight. Bam, you have Rock n' Rose couture. It's a like from me.

I Confess: ... I only bought it because of the beautiful bottle!!!... And for a long time it stayed in my wardrobe without use (Normally i don't like Floral perfumes). Slowly i started wearing it. And each time i liked it more. A very comfortable rose scent, with a little bit of spices and a delicious vanilla base. Nowadays, I just love it. Very feminine and sexy.. Definitely a "Rock'n Rose"... Can be used at night and also on fresh days.Good lasting power: Stays the whole day. In my opinion Valentino's Rose is one of the best!!

I miss this. It's not worth shelling out the money for a bottle of this discontinued scent, though. I wore this all the time when it first came out. As well as the rose, I used to get the musk, lily of the valley and orris notes quite strongly. Blackcurrant was noticeable for the first 10 minutes or so. I don't remember the heliotrope or the vanilla being there, but it has been a while. It's a soft, feminine and sophisticated scent. My only gripe is that it has no projection at all.
