A chypre leaning toward old-school chpres though not as opulent, well-blended or complex to my nose. The Rosine website says this is to be worn with fur and silk, which gives me the impression that...

I absolutely adore this deep, complicated earthy rose fragrance. It is is stiff competition with my HG perfume that I have been wearing for years, L'Artisan's Voleur de Roses. Un Folie de Roses has...

This has a lot of personality (in a good way). Nice sharp, spicy rose with green overtones and quite a bit of patchouli. For those who are put off by the sharpness, dabbing, rather than spraying,...

Clearly this is a scent that provokes a strong reaction! I love the greenness in the top notes--fresh and sharp and chypre-y. The dry-down is lush and dark and spicy on me--not a little girl rose,...

Lovely rose incense dries to a fair, clear rose without a lot of features. Nothing wrong with it, but not for me.

Total scrubber on me. At first I thought I'd like this, but there is a heavy, lingering afterscent that is just intolerable.... I don't know what that is, but it's oily, and toooo much. Nauseating.

Update: this is an aldehyde rose. The openning is a sharp and cold to my taste but it settles after half an hour. There may be some mossy woods lingering in the background but it's not a typical...

I am really surprised that the ratings for Une Folie are not higher than they are. This is a beautiful, sexy scent. Lately I have really fallen for chypres, and this is a great one. It has the...

Ugh. Sharp rose. And old-fashioned scent. I don't care for it at all.

My search for a dark rose scent has finally ended. Folie de Rose is simply divine, from start to finish. It manages to be rich, but never stale or overpowering. That being said, as with most...

This scent reminds me of La Perla's fragrance as it has an aldehydic note in it. The rep @ Barney's told me it's the patchouli, but it melts into powder on me. Love the bottle with the tassle...

I've lusted after Rosines for some time, but now that I've tried the two most likely prospects (this and Poussiere), I'm sorely disappointed. The opening was sharp (isn't there coriander in this?),...

This is a chypre perfume, and a good one at that. I can understand that people are disappointed when they expect Les Parfums de Rosine to issue only floral perfumes. Yes, this is a departure, but...

Rosine's fragrances are an anomaly for me....they smell better in the sample vials than in the full sized bottles! Twice already, I've purchased the large bottles only to swap them away because the...

This is a very elegant and sophisticated scent. It is also dark and sweet. It remind me of my beloved Opone. It does not smell like Opone just reminds me of it. It is a mature scent but not an old...

If this is rose chypre is Ms. Rogeon's idea of Un Folie, then she clearly is spending too much time being serious and working excessively long hours creating these scents. Admirable, but she needs...

This smells very very musky upon application. It's dense and oily and probably more long lived than some other Rosines. It has a blast of citrusy beginning notes that others have noted, including...

I love this. It simply sparkles on my skin. It is green and red at the same time and feels very baroque and decorative somehow. The reviewer below provides a helpful list of notes and other...

well, this is a nice rosey chypre -- with a clear, unsweet, singing rose note at first, then drying down to agent provocateur, more or less, on my skin (saffron, spices, oakmoss, hint of patchouli...
