7.1

Roccobarocco · 1991

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Roccobarocco Tre is a fresh, fruity and floral women's fragrance built around passion fruit, blackcurrant and ylang-ylang, best suited to spring and summer days. It opens bright, juicy and slightly green with passion fruit, blackcurrant, nectarine and violet leaf. Ylang-ylang, jasmine sambac, osmanthus and damask rose form a floral heart, and the base turns sweeter and softer with praliné, musk and woods, leaving a powdery, woody finish. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn well behind. Daily wear, leisure and the office lead the occasions, while evening and night out trail. Its light sweetness and fresh character make it a daytime scent.

Oud Bouquet

8.1

Lancôme · 2024

Floral · Sweet · Gourmand

Lancôme Oud Bouquet is a women's fragrance that pairs oud, praliné and May rose in a floral, sweet, gourmand style.

There is not enough voting on seasons or occasions to say more; the dense, full character suits those who don't mind being noticed.

The result is warm, soft and oriental in leaning.
