Reve

Received a free sample of reve today when I bought something else,it's written on it that "reve is scent of a bouquet of delicate white flowers and juicy pear".it definitely hits the point Reve is a sparkly floralfruity without anything extraordinary,however it's very pretty,feminine,tender,soft and clean.truely lovely Pear appears in the opening to provide a juicy,fresh,fruity undertone,I love pear in perfumes and it's so natural smelling here but it soon becomes more about florals.there's soft,creamy white florals(I can detect lily and something like magnolia!)and a rose-like peony.I can't pickup much amber or sandalwood just it becomes a little warmer,softer and a tad powdery in drydown I know there's lots of pretty smelling floralfruity fragrances out there,nice but without any wow factor,but I think reve is one of the nicest and most balanced ones.not everyone likes heavy orientals or chypers so if you're into a delicate,youthful and light scent,give this one a try For me,it's a spring,summer and also a day scent.good for daily use,office wear and even for dates.longevity is good for it's softness,lasts about 4 hours on my skin then I can smell a whisper of soft clean florals for another 2-3 hours,like a skin washed with a creamy floral soap.sillage is soft to moderate on me I maybe consider buying a bottle of this lovely scent for this spring and summer Edit: I used up my sample and now I know that I want it in my collection. I usually like simple and pretty floralfruities at first but they bore me very soon,not in this case.pear,lily and peony are my most favorite notes in a floralfruity so no wonder it appeals to me this much.it's bright,feminine and delicately sweet.simply lovely! More important that my man likes it and complements me whenever I wear it عطر ساده اما در عین حال خیلی خیلی زیباییه با رایحه فرش و آبدار و طبیعی گلابی شروع میشه ک خیلیم طبیعی و خوشاینده و شیرینی ملایمی داره،کمی بعد گلی تر میشه.گلهای سفید لطیف ک ب مشام من شبیه سوسن و کمی مگنولیاست!و گل صدتومانی ک کمی شبیه رز هست با شادابی میوه ای گلابی میکس میشن و رایحه ملایم و روشن و جوون و زیبایی ایجاد میکنن ک کاملا مناسب بهار و تابستونه و عطر سیف و خوش بازخوردی هست.من چندان صندل یا امبری حس نمیکنم فقط تو درای داون از خنکی عطر کمتر میشه و کمی حالت پودری پیدا میکنه موندگاری روه نسبت ب لطافتش خوبه.رو پوست من حدود چهار ساعت با پخش متوسط تا ملایم میمونه.بعدش دوسه ساعتی شبحی از رایحه تمیز فلورال میشه رو پوست حس کرد مثل پوستی ک ب تازگی با صابون کرمی-گلی شسته شده باشه

Lovely, lovely, lovely perfume. It is wondefull and I get plenty of compliments. I dont understand how people are saying this scent is common, after being massively attacked by overly sweet fruity or candylike perfumes these last few years (can't stand it, YUCK!). This smells exquisite. For me it is perfect. P.S I see some people comparing it to Gucci Premiere. Doesn't bear a remote similarity. Beside the fact that the two JUST DON'T SMELL ALIKE: The Gucci is boring as hell, just an "ordinary office scent" , not exciting what so ever, with an annoying "perfumy" drydown. Reve on the other hand ( literaly) is so unique, Complex, with lots of faces. I don't understand how people with such educated noses ( much more then mine) such as the people here in fragrantica call it "Ordinary office scent", and don't see the multifaceness of this wonderfull scent.

Such a wonderful, fruity, sparkling floral. I adore the pear, but I wouldn't call it candied. It's freshly cut pear and it's just sweet enough to leave you feeling so very youthful and pretty, while staying on the mature, classy side of sweet. If Reve had a look, it would be radiant and luminous, like a morganite gemstone. Longevity is great, 8+ hrs. Projection is good, too, especially when sprayed on my clothes and in my hair. It lasts over 24 hrs. in my hair. I have to thank Lily2911 for this beauty. It's going in my top 5.

I just adore this perfume, it has been my go-to for 3-4 years now. It is sweet and fresh and bright and just melts into your skin beautifully, it smells incredibly similar to Glossier You but without the pink pepper notes. The longevity is great and the projection is enough for people to smell your perfume but not so much that it's overbearing. Something in this smells like the first bite of a juicy, Pink Lady apple but apple isn't one of the notes in this - this is easily my favourite perfume in my collection.

Got my 100 ml bottle today. Blind buy, however, if I had the chance to test it first, the result would be the same! I love this! Think it's a must-have for the summer, although can be easily worn in any season. Very inoffensive, stylish, subtle, feminine, clean...and mainstream. Just the way I like it. More citrusy when sprayed on clothes, definitely floral when sprayed on skin.

I tried it on my skin a couple of times and although could not remember the scent like I do remember most fragrances (perhaps this one is not so distinctive) I really loved it! Don't like too sweet perfumes and this one was just right, a light one. I would say it is a great feminine scent for any woman of any age, depends more on style and personality rather than age.

The most crystalline perfume in the world. Like sparkling rose water, like champagne in the flute of a fairy queen, like a mythical tinkling, effervescent fountain of youth, beauty, and tranquility, like crystal wind chimes, like diamonds in champagne, like a shimmering lagoon in a pink sand oasis. Xx

I love it. I don't usually like floral parfumes. But this scent is so comforting and dreamy and tender and fairylike... I mostly smell the pear and the peony, they mix great. I use this when I don't have mood for anything difficult and I just need some comfort scent.

I love this one. It's a great go-to fragrance that gets nice compliments

Nice fruity summer scent. Reminds me of Gucci Envy me.

I think, this is only for fairies to wear.

This is a blind buy, based on reviews here. Very Summer-y and ''young'' carefree fragrance. Fresh, creamy, bright florals, a lot of peonies and white flowers, some pear and not much sandalwood or amber. At least don't feel them. I thought I smell some rose in this but I don't see it in the ingredients.. strange. The opening is not my fave- very strong alcohol smell, good that it goes away in a few minutes, but it's suffocating at first.. Overall, very happy with this blind buy. I feel it will be great for the days when I am not sure exactly what I want to wear- it is very pleasant, yet inoffensive and yes, even mainstream. Still: fresh and pleasant. Somehow it reminds of Burberry Body, minus the woodsy-cashmere notes of Body of course, Reve is like some much much lighter and more carefree version of it. Since I like Body, I like this one as well :) Will come back later to report on its lasting power... EDIT: yep, like expected with fruity floral scets, this doesn't last long. 3-4 hours on my skin, a little longer on clothes. After that there is just a delicate soapy trace. I am starting to feel the pear more and more in this, right from the beginning..

I blind bought this from Amazon as it's only £15 at the mo! (December 2020) As with all Van Cleef and Arpels it's a lovely perfume, nice and natural, no screechy or artificial notes. This is a fairly simple clean light floral, very fresh, slightly warm, pretty much as you would expect from the colour and bottle really. The first half hour is a pretty light clean floral, then several hours of a strongly clean almost an expensive French milled soap sort of smell. You won't light the world on fire with this one, but you won't offend either, it's a nice easy choice for day wear. This feels very feminine to me, but pretty ageless. I'm happy wearing it at 40, I would have worn it at 20, and I won't mind lending it to my daughter either (whereas I wouldn't really want her wearing Carnal Flower for example!)

Like a dream -it's there, it's not there, it's there again but showing another side of it. It's playing and therefore attracting. Light, but long lasting (on me) , not unique, but beautiful because of its pureness, simplicity and feminine vibe. Sometimes you just don't want anything more, but a fresh and easily wearable scent. I agree to those who have compared it to Feerie- yes, this comes from the same shelf, but this is more fruity than Feerie (Feerie is more green, woody). The neroli and osmanthus notes are wonderful here, they are well balanced by the pear (juicy, "filled" with sun). Instead of the listed lily I get the lily-of-the-valley and some light green tea. The drydown is sensual and warm like a mild, warm summer evening after a hot and sunny day.

This is an extremely fresh and lightly floral scent. It smells like a clean shampoo such as herbal essences, only more of a perfume. At first spray I smell the peony, neroli, pear and almost a little bit of grapefruit. Then as it settles I smell the osmanthus and sandalwood. It's a very clean scent that is good for the Spring and everyday wear such as the office or if you work at a hospital. With that being said, it's not a luxurious fragrance that is going to earn you lots of compliments, it's a very intimate scent with little sillage. However, you will smell clean and like you have good hygiene~ Overall, I enjoy this fragrance but would not repurchase. It's just not unique enough for me nor is it memorable.

This is growing on me. At first I wasn't impressed. For a fragrance that was created in 2013 on first spray this smelt very 90s to me. It's many years since I smelled Cerruti 1881 so I can't say for sure it smells the same but it gave me the same vibes. I can't discern individual notes with this, it's very much blended. I find it floral rather than fruity. It's quite loud at first but soon settles down. I think it's disappeared and then I move and get a little puff of fragrance. The amber and sandalwood base is really soft and quite lovely. This was a blind buy based on the notes and the bottle and has worked out well. Such an easygoing, pretty fragrance and only £7.99 from an online discounter!

love at first sight. it opens as pear and white floral, then peony appears, after 1 hours or so, the woody note and amber kicks in. all the notes blended in a harmonious way, pleasant and well-balanced. it just smells like what it is described, and totally my cup of tea. i usually like perfumes that contain peony, and i would always pick the peony one in those duty-free sea of perfume situation. it is elegant and woman-like. i wish i discover it earlier. it is not commonly seen in the city i live and i m glad that i can test it and get a bottle. mild sillage and 2-3 hours longevity. reasonable to me for fruity floral.

Me, who is constant changing...and so is my body chemestry. I sprayed this parfume today, it's cold here. And now the smell is very beautyful on me! So different then last year. :-) always give things a second try. Now I smell pear and orange flower, followed by peony. So funny how your nose is working. If I wear this one word pops in my mind; Paris. I feel like a Parisian woman walking true this romantic city in winter. It's almost Christmas and I feel fresh and rosy... this is a unique sent, feel unique.

Hi Joan100, The rose you smell is the peony. So,your nose is right! Peony is the first ingredient I smell very clear. To me it's not a very special parfum. Good for office or casual daytime. Maybe it smells better in spring/summer ( it's almost winter here ) ... Not longlasting at all on my skin.
