Narciso Rouge

i got this from a 2nd hand seller that mislisted it as the EDP, and i'm sad i don't have the iris I was looking for. However, I'm in love with the EDT in it's own right. It's like the grown up, sophisticated big sister of Harajuku Lovers Baby. Also in the vein of Penhaligan's Artemisia, if i'm remembering my mini of that one right. Silky, rosy, powder and fluffy sweet musk. Also a little like the Paris dusting powder my mom had in the 90s, which was all pink roses and wood. And I also kind of smell violets in this? but maybe it's the LOTV. It's a refined LOTV, not astringent like many of that note. I'd also swear there was vanilla in here, the drydown is so smooth with it.

has a note i dont smell in the edp. a bit more bitter than powdery. Not much of a powdery scent at all you can still smell a bit of powder in the edp. I love it though its different enough to even consider it an entirely different perfume by Naciso. That's how much different the two formulations smell to me but I love them both but will be repurchasing the edp after this bottle is gone. I tsmells sweet and musky and has a clean soapy scent that I don't pick up in he edp will wear it till its gone worth buying due to how different they are it is like it should be in a yellow cube. Yellow is the color for this scent.

This is my favourite NR cube! The opening is a bit sharp with sweet musk that never becomes cloying, just melts right into your skin. The sweetness is natural, not overtly sweet as in the gourmands filled with vanilla and caramel. Rouge is not a love for everyone, but for me it is a holy grail. I think it might be the first perfume I empty in my mega-collection, and that's definitely saying something as I near 200 bottles (eek!). It is the closest to "signature" as I can get - I feel fine wearing it everywhere (work, sleep, etc. just not the nightclub!) and never get tired of the scent.

Initially thought that I will get EDP version but the seller sent me this one instead ( most likely, because well, both of them are discontinued and they sent this one, at least. Not that I’m complaining, it’s a blind buy after all 💄 ). Reminds me of classic For Her ( EDP, mind it ) a bit but not quite. For me it’s autumnal but I surely wear it during summer as well

A classic rose, musky, super powdery, soft, sweet and slightly woody in the deep dry down. It’s a super pretty, feminine and ultra creamy perfume and while it’s nothing earth shattering, it’s such a beautiful, pure, comforting, relaxing scent. My kind of clean aesthetic perfume, the ones that last well, project and are fairly affordable! Lingers forever on clothing!
