Vanille Rouge

Simple, beautiful, delicious!! Yes, it’s another Vanilla/Musk fragrance, yes it’s similar to lots of other successful perfumes like Baccarat Rouge, but what the heck... it’s amazing!! Gourmand, sweet, cozy, and yet, very simple. Vanillic, obviously from the Vanilla... lactonic and slightly nutty from the Almond... red fruit smelling from the Rose... and with a heavenly sweet Musk, not animalic at all, just delicious! Exactly what many Mancera/Montale perfumes try to be, but don’t quite succeed. Performance is very good, projection is strong for a good two hours, then it becomes moderate, longevity is 8+ hours. Vanille Rouge is unisex ever so slightly leaning towards women, being a cozy scent is better suited for cold or mild weather, preferably for evening or night. Amazing, cozy, delicious... a must try if not a must buy for all vanilla lovers!!

This is a simple but not so simple beautiful rose vanilla, it’s very intense and a couple spritzes are more than enough. The opening is not my favorite because the rose is a little bit jam-like and it’s also when the bitterness is at its strongest. As it settles, it’s much more sweet and almost sugary, yum! The Versace website lists rosewater, marigold, orange bitter, praline, lilly of the valley, Turkish rose, musk, vanilla and amber as notes and I actually get it because the bitterness is more citric than almondy. I also feel like there is more florals than just rose in this fragrance and praline makes total sense too, it’s very sweet but not chocolate-like, more like a cream-loaded ganache. It comes in a beautiful luxurious box, but the price is quite high.

Very interesting, for a guy too, Versace Vanille Rouge tested today liberally sprayed. Sense the quality in a mature mix, linear fade minimal character changes. I'm still aware of it 5 hours later after changing clothes on a warm evening. Getting a subdued, amusing & delicate fresh musk, with softer powdery, pine, gentle base of fresh cut wood. Still works well on the skin sprays 6 hrs. Same strength on clothes, it's lasting. I could grab this, especially when needing some positive cosy warming. But first I need to test the rest of their Atelier collection, cool mission! Then hunt more Geurlain ha, Ideal has a hold on me.

This is the rose fragrance ive been looking for all this time. Opens up fresh/sweet,sweet vanilla and fresh rose with something almost boozy juicy in the background and a beautiful musk. What always bugs me in other rose+vanilla fragrances is that it almost always tends to be too sweet or jammy rose and gives me headaches. This one doesn't scream, it lures you in and once it gets you you get obsessed. I've compared it to intense cafe and can see the similarities but honestly this one is so much better. The intense cafe smells more synthetic and jammy. Get this! Cozy, sweet,seductive,comforting! Love the bottles too.

I really love this one... it opens with a beautiful rosy burst that feels elegant and soft right from the start. I also pick up a hint of saffron, even though it’s not officially listed, which adds a warm luxurious touch. It reminds me a lot of Baccarat Rouge 540 and Delina Exclusif, almost like a perfect blend of both worlds... sweet airy amber with a plush rose heart. The result is feminine, luminous, and addictive. A truly pretty scent that feels both comforting and sophisticated. This is my second bottle from the versace atelier collection, i love the packaging of the atelier bottles. - Bhavna Darira Chesan
