A dark, almost saturnine floral blend. Countless reformulations have likely rendered this scent unrecognizable to Caron afficionados, but to my unpracticed nose it is discreetly sexy, the sort of scent one of those plain-looking lab assistants in a 1950s "B" movie would spritz on just before whipping off her glasses and letting her hair cascade down. "Why, Miss Rocaille, you're beautiful!"

Fleurs de Rocaille, another first class fragrance of the french house Caron, is a flowery, lively and seductive perfume, hinting at nature in spring(time), full of light and shadow, expressed as a landscape of flower fragances.

Typically for the floral bouquet, its fragrance blends lilac, lily of the valley, jasmine, bergamot, violet, iris and carnation, while base notes of sandalwood, musk and amber give it the necessary dynamic.
Fleurs de Rocaille remains a symbol of clarity of lines and harmony, while the inscription on the little box reflects the colours and the fragrances of the perfume. That was and rests one of the most feminine fragrance that was ever created. It feels like a the silk on the naked skin in a spring day on Capri.

A very special, old-fashioned and classic lady's perfume, difficult to wear.

Fleurs de Rocaille (not to be mixed up with the Fleur de Rocaille which came out in the 80s, same pronounciation, different spelling- took me long time to figure that out!) is very powdery. Daltroff made use of a bunch of aldehydes which come across very soft, not aggressive, classic in the sense of being a bit boring. The perfume lacks personality...although I never tried the original, I can only comment on it the way it is presented today.
Get "L'Interdit" de Givenchy instead.

On first smell I get strong aldehydes - can't say I am very fussed about it; a so-so soft flowery fragrance, a little old ladyish. Inoffensive though.
