Fresh · Citrus · Green

Eau de Toilette

Roger & Gallet Vétyver Eau de Toilette is a fresh men's fragrance where citrus and green tones rest on a woody, earthy base; it has been discontinued. It opens with orange, lemon and bergamot for citrus brightness, while lavender and rosemary add a green, spicy edge. Fir, cedar and orris root form a woody frame in the heart. In the base, oakmoss, amber, tonka bean and musk settle the scent into a chypre-leaning, lightly sweet, earthy finish. Longevity is rated moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn not far behind. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the most chosen settings. It reads masculine.

Vanille Soleil (Eau Parfumée)

7.8

Roger & Gallet · 2025

Fresh · Floral · Green

Roger & Gallet Vanille Soleil is an Eau Parfumée for women that softens a sweet, creamy vanilla with a fresh, floral touch. Bourbon vanilla and tonka bean build the sweet, creamy body of the scent. Jasmine and ylang-ylang add a floral side, while amber brings warmth. Musky notes keep the blend smooth and salty notes take the edge off the sweetness; the fresh and green accords keep it from feeling heavy. The notes have no top, heart and base split, so the scent reads as one whole from start to finish. Dior Diorissimo and Guerlain Muguet have a close profile.

Shiso / Eau de Shiso

7.2

Roger & Gallet

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Roger & Gallet Shiso / Eau de Shiso is a fresh, green unisex scent built around mandarin orange, shiso leaf and bergamot; it has been discontinued. It leans towards everyday wear: most voters pick daytime, leisure and business settings, with sport and evenings out chosen less often. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin without filling a room. The vote count is small, so these impressions are tentative. As a whole it reads fresh and citrusy: mandarin orange and bergamot give a bright start, while shiso leaf adds a green, slightly spicy edge. Peony brings a soft floral touch and Mysore sandalwood a faintly sweet depth, with an aquatic feel keeping it airy. Tom Ford Neroli Portofino (Eau de Parfum) and Marc O'Polo Pure Green Woman have a close profile.

Feuille de Figuier

6.9

Roger & Gallet · 2018

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Roger & Gallet Feuille de Figuier is a fresh women's fragrance that sets bright citrus against a green, floral backdrop; it has been discontinued. It opens with mandarin orange, galbanum and bergamot, a sparkling citrus-green mix with a slightly bitter edge. In the heart, fig leaf and neroli take over, and the green side is softened by a floral note. In the base, benzoin and cedar sweeten the scent and settle it into a woody, powdery, creamy warmth, with a faint fruity touch lingering.

Santal

8.3

Roger & Gallet · 1978

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Roger & Gallet Santal is a men's fragrance that opens with lemon, lavender and bergamot before moving into a green, spicy heart of tarragon and aniseed; it has been discontinued. At the start, lemon, bergamot and lime give a bright citrus lift, with lavender keeping it clean. In the heart, tarragon, aniseed and caraway add a green, spicy edge, softened by a floral touch of orange blossom. The base of leather, oakmoss, sandalwood and patchouli sets a chypre character, while cinnamon and tonka bean add a light sweetness. The overall impression is fresh yet woody, powdery and leathery, in the manner of a classic masculine. Aramis Tuscany per Uomo and Azzaro Azzaro pour Homme have a close profile.

Ylang

7.5

Roger & Gallet · 2017

Citrus · Floral · Fruity

Roger & Gallet Ylang is a sweet, creamy women's fragrance that sets bright orange, bergamot and mandarin against ylang-ylang and tiaré flowers; it has been discontinued. It opens on three citrus notes: orange, bergamot and mandarin orange. In the heart, ylang-ylang, tiaré and orange blossom take over and soften the fruity side into something floral. The base of musk, cedar and vanilla settles the scent onto a sweet, creamy footing, with a touch of spice and a synthetic edge among the accords. Dorothée Piot composed it in 2017. Tesori d'Oriente Tiaré delle Indie and Xerjoff Blue Hope have a close profile.

Cologne Twist

7.2

Roger & Gallet · 2024

Fresh · Citrus · Aquatic

Roger & Gallet Cologne Twist is a fresh fragrance for men that pairs Calabrian and Sicilian citrus fruits with elemi resin. Two citrus notes lead the opening, and elemi resin in the heart adds a light spicy, green touch. White woods stay in the background at the base. The overall impression is fresh, citrusy and aquatic, with sweetness and a woody side playing a smaller part. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so mostly those close by will notice it. Voters pick it mainly for daily wear, leisure and the office, and a fair number also suggest it for sport. Evening and night out come up less often. Dior Sauvage (Eau de Toilette) and Gucci Gucci by Gucci pour Homme (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.

Bouquet Impériale

7.3

Roger & Gallet · 1991

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Roger & Gallet Bouquet Impériale is a fresh fragrance that pairs citrus with florals, made for women and now discontinued. Lemon and bergamot give it a bright, clean edge, while rose, geranium and lavender add a floral, slightly green depth to that freshness. Musk softens the whole. Its accords also carry fruity and spicy touches, and the clean, aromatic feel of a fougère runs through it. Since the notes aren't split into layers, the scent reads as one balanced piece from start to finish.

Gingembre Rouge Intense

6.5

Roger & Gallet · 2016

Floral · Fruity · Sweet

Roger & Gallet Gingembre Rouge Intense is a feminine perfume that pairs a floral, sweet character with spicy, powdery and creamy shades; it has been discontinued. Ginger flower and pink pepper bring a lively spiciness. Orris concrete adds a soft, powdery creaminess, while tolu balm deepens the sweetness. Cedar and patchouli lay a woody base, and the fruity touch stays in the background of the blend. Voters rate its longevity and sillage as moderate, so it neither dominates nor fades quickly. It is positioned as a feminine fragrance. Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium (Eau de Parfum) and Maison Margiela Lipstick On share a close profile.

Magnolia Folie

6.0

Roger & Gallet · 2018

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Roger & Gallet Magnolia Folie is a fresh, floral unisex scent that pairs a green, citrusy brightness with a light woody base. Bergamot brings a crisp citrus lift and blackcurrant bud absolute adds a green, slightly fruity edge. Magnolia, jasmine absolute and orange blossom absolute form the floral core, while cedar and patchouli set it on a dry, woody footing. The overall impression is a green, fresh bouquet with a distinctly synthetic sheen. Composed by Frédérique Terranova in 2018, it has been discontinued. Perfumes with a close profile include Nina Ricci Luna Blossom and Chloé Chloé (2015) Eau de Toilette.
