    A MUAer was kind enough to send me a sample of this scent along with many others. From the name, I did not know what to expect, but it is a hint that this is a pretty, feminine, "girly-girl"...

    This is one of the only "rose" based fragrances that I can stand. It has a very real smell to it. I feel like I am in a greenhouse full of roses when I wear this.

    Thanks to other members of this board and their glowing reviews of the Malle collection, I sought out the Malle fragrances which are sold at Barney's in NYC. The SA at that store is trained very...

    Soft, pillowy violet and a plastic-y rose...it really DOES smell like certain brands of lipstick (that chalky/oily/powdery smell that's weirdly addictive). Lasting power is very good. It's very...

    I had not considered myself to be a lover of floral fragrances, let alone a rose or violet dominated scent. Nonetheless, this is now one of my favorite perfumes. The careful blending of...

    Lipstick Rose is a classy and gentle rose fragrance with a topping of candy-sweet frosting, all of which I love! These days I get mostly the violet in Lipstick Rose, with some rose. Seems like a...

    If Lipstick Rose had been around in 1955, the saucy screen Lolita (not Nabokov's 11-13-year-old) would have worn it religiously. As much as dear Lolita holds a revered, pink-cushioned place in my...

    Recently, I was able to sample Le Parfum de Therese, Une Fleur de Cassie, and Lipstick rose (thanks to japickles!). Although Lipstick Rose came in third in my testing, there is much to be loved in...

    I agree with the reviewer below that this perfume brings Chanel cosmetics to mind (but not necessarily Chanel fragrances- my signature scent is Coco Mlle, and this could not be more different!). ...

    Not a rose scent per se, when translated as 'Pink Lipstick', as Malle suggests, the inspiration behind this scent is immediately obvious: the sweet powdery rose/violet classically associated with...

    Wow! F Malle continues to amaze me. I did not expect to like this, as I am not big on rose scents (even though my little girl wears C & E "Evelyn" so well). I don't like powdery scents, either....

    Lipstick Rose almost knocked me over at first whiff, filling my field of vision with violent swirls of fuschia and vermilion: Yowza! Too strong! Retreat!! Retreat!! Phew... happily, after an...

    This scent evokes such a specific experience for everyone. For me it is shopping with my Gram and eating the lovely square violet wafer candies she had in her purse. Pure sweetness. While the...

    Flirtatious candy powder! I can't wear this b/c the aldehydes are so intense so I compromise with YSL Paris. Similar idea except the YSL is more sparkly and not as dry.

    Candied violets with a slightly powdery rose. The name is deciving as it is definitely more French candied violets (like the imported ones I purchase at Di Laurentis at the market) than roses. Its...

    As Victoria notes, the Malle website touts this one by saying: "Lipstick Rose expresses femininity par excellence; its scent evokes a woman half Gilda half Silvana Mangano." Well, what can one say...
