The fragrance is a contemporary version of a timeless classic. Reflecting youth, vitality and spontaneity, the floral harmony blends subtle notes of mimosa and lilac offset by a crescendo of zesty jasmine and iris. The fragrance climaxes with sensual notes of sandalwood and amber. The bottle, shaped like a vase is topped by a carved floral motif on the stopper. Fleur de Rocaille (1993) was launched in 1993.

I have not worn Caron's 1993 FLEUR DE ROCAILLE since my felicitous purchase of FLEURS DE ROCAILLE. My memory was that I loved this fragrance--although I see now that my 1oz edt is still 80% full. For quite some time, until fairly recently, I erroneously believed FLEUR to be the referent of the perfume mentioned in SCENT OF A WOMAN.

Now that I try the singular, newer FLEUR again, I am finding it very, very loud. This is a seriously aggressive floral, as in venus flytrap bouquet! I feel a bit overwhelmed, to be honest. This seems sharp and mean and green, almost like CABOTINE, which I have not worn in a long time, but will have to try again soon just to see...

I can imagine parading this outburst of florals on a bright sunny day, clad in a crisp white shirt and sateen capris. But today, it seems too happy, too obtrusive, too insistent to me.

What a beautiful intense floral! It smells very modern yet not gourmand or nor vanillic. Just flowers in an old mannered way with a re-vamped twist on a soft bed of cedarwood and a little amber. It is very elegant in a deluxe '80s way, but I wouldn't relate it to a precise age. It smells like thick pink flowers in a garden on a lake during summer in a beautiful ancient tidy village. It is STRONG! A little bit goes for long time and big sillage.
This is a total feminine scent. Of course, anyone can wear whatever they love, but this one on a man would smell confusing!
Not to be confused with older Fleurs de Rocaille which smells completely different, more aldehydic fresh.

This is so rich, so excessive that I have a hard time identifying single notes. They all melt into something very floral, very feminine, very sweet and very BIG. Like the scent of an entirely new flower almost. But it certainly is recognizable.
Funny how all the previous reviewers had had mixed emotions about it but by the end of the review decided that they did like it after all:) And I'm no exception. I do like it after all. I enjoy its vintage, OTT glamour (think body-hugging, gold sequined dress), its wow-factor and its honey-ish quality. I hardly ever wear it, but it's good to know I could.

Fleur de Rocaille is a strong floral with bitter honey accents, perhaps it is mimosa. It feels like this honey has been collected from some intoxicating and perhaps poisonous flowers. Reminds me of Poeme Lancome, the character and sillage are similar, only Fleur feels more synthetic somehow. It is not bad at all, I do wear it, on a cool sunny spring day with the wind blowing it works quite well, but I think it will be headache inducing in the office. And I agree that it has that 80-s, 90-s feel.

oh dear, i've bought the wrong rock!! i found this by chance the other day and forgot about the "s" which makes so much difference. they didnt have a tester so i bought it without smelling, opened it and had a squirt when i got back to the car, expecting to be transported back to the twenties, and promptly got whacked over the head by something modern which was like a thump in the face with a boxing glove. well, i think i actually like it. but it seems more 80's than 90's to me. something about it makes me think also of an expensive hairdressers that my mother used to visit in the 60's. i think this one will be a one-off for me, reminds me a bit of ysatis which i never really liked. i'll use it some more and update when i've formed my opinion completely.

It's Fleurs de Rocaille that the movie Scent of women mentioned

Smells a little like Downy Fabric Softener. It's very clean, floral, and comforting. Like snuggling up with a warm cozy blanket right out of the dryer. I like it!

SCENT OF A WOMAN
Can't forget the final scene when Al Paccino lovingly notes
FLOWER OR THE ROCK
so, femininity that can be smelled
