Mypersonalharmonics, thanks for a wonderful comment, now I understand why I like it so much! I'm exactly like this (a rose-loving blonde with low skin temperature) and I've been dreaming of this perfume for years, though I wasn't so sure if it would suit me. Now that I have it I'm in heaven. :)

An excellent choice for rose-loving blondes with low skin temperature.A possible disaster on dark girls in a warm and humid climate.
Rose sparkling in a garden of peach trees,a slightly dizzy effect like you've had too much of a liquer,a haunting aura when you walk by.
Still,I think it really feels old right now,not vintage.If you want a vintage rose go for Paris-YSL.
Sublime bath line,suggested for a well being aromatic treat without the heady effect of the perfume.

I had this one on my "I want" list for a long time now, but only recently was I able to test it, and I was disappointed. It is too sweet (and this coming from someone who LIKES sweet), too synthetic, just ... too much. Like Deseo, it smells like the flowers are on the verge of rotting. Not for me.

I have to be honest: this perfume is too much for me - too much peach, apricot, sugar & invasion of my space - & it sadly gives me a headache.
BUT, I appreciate its qualities. It is an exceptionally well-crafted fragrance, that neatly sidesteps the pitfalls which ensnare your average peachy-sugar-frou-frou scents I seem to stand behind in supermarket queues.
There is a certain dusty creaminess of sandalwood, vanilla & musk with warm amber drawing you in. The flowers are strong, the peach features heavily, yet this scent manages to remain both romantic & seductive.
Not my cup of tea - but a piece of olfactory art.

I've tried several times with this scent and always walked away. In the last two weeks I have met two women who were both wearing Tresor and it smelled absolutely wonderful on them...so back to the store once again. I have to say going through the top and middle notes was not the greatest, but the scent left on my skin for the rest of the day was divine!!!! So, yes this is really nice, not to heavy, not too sweet. So if you can wait until the dry down, this one may work for you.
05/18/09 04:36:58
Classic and elegant...several years ago when a friend of my wore it i didn't like it on her( smelled very sweet and heavy) so never tested on my skin but recently sprayed it on my neck and hair and fell in love with it.On my skin i don't smell any sweetness, it is very oriental and fresh...kind of spicy...Unique and young!
05/16/09 01:38:58
A nice classic scent that remains truly feminine. It can be worn on all occasions as it evokes true elegance. A copied by many Bulgarian rose fragrance.
05/06/09 04:29:29
The opening is alright nothing too bad. However the dry down eew,ew,ew it gives me a headache. Litterally it smells like some kind of vanilla custard which has gone all rotten. However this scent may suit someone else looking at all the postive reviews. It's just something about me and Lancomes perfumes we don't get along very well.
04/30/09 11:46:37
I have a weakness for Orientals, and Tresor is no exception. The richness of the fruits, particularly the peach and the apricot, is exquisite. It's warm in a seductive and comforting manner. Its staying power is also a good indicative of its quality, very French indeed. It's no surprise it became a classic so quickly and has survived the cruel pass of time that others haven't. I wonder if this little treasure is Sophia Grojsman's favourite "child". One thing is for sure, she can be very proud of her creation.
04/29/09 06:58:32
Sophisticated powdery classic fragrance for more mature women, or for women that are utterly feminine. Nice, but not for me, at least now.
04/28/09 18:03:16
It's funny, so many reviews say this is too heavy and sweet; I have worn this scent for years and have always wished it were stronger, LOL! For me, it is a light scent, fresh but subdued peaches with a bit of powder and musk. I love the scent, and as it is the scent I wore when hubby and I started dating, it always reminds us both of those days.....so I will of course always have a bottle around, LOL!
04/26/09 07:34:19
I love this the most, it's not really sweet I think, I dont' like sweet either, I knew it when I was a lil girl and now I still love it. It's good to use in winter. Don't use it in summer. Don't think that only old women wear it because lots of teenager are wearing it today, :)). And I love that ( also hate cause I can smell it everywhere, T_T )
04/24/09 12:00:19
I have worn Tresor for about 15 years, absolutely love it. I have received so many compliments over the years, from men and women. It has been the only perfume that would not choke me and cut off my nasal passages. I have many others, the only one coming to close to me wearing daily is Be Givenchy. Tresor is me....
04/09/09 17:27:21
I wanted to like it, because I smelled it when I was younger and wanted to feel more adult. But to me, it had a slight smell of beer or rotting florals, something off putting that I just didn't care for.
04/07/09 18:06:45
Such a mild and sophisticated fragrance!I prefere the EDP version instead of the EDT one.
It is classic and because of that I think it can be worn by woman of all ages,not only the mature ones.
I agree the top notes are sweet and don't seem that classy,but the middle and the base notes are just perfect!
I could detect lilly of the valley,peach and bergamot when I first sprayed it on my skin.
The middle notes and more romantic and they last quite long.
My favourite part of this fragrance are the base notes.The base notes are like the top notes,but without that sweetness.
It's only the classy allure of this fragrance that remains after a few hours.
I like it very much and I agree it is a symbol of class and sophistication.It's not a perfume for everyone.If you don't understand or like it,then don't try to wear it.

normally i don't like these kind of perfumes because they're too sophisticated and mature for my age...but for some reason, this perfume appeals to me a lot...it smells so nice: warm, rich, very luxurious. i really like the combination of pineapple and rose in this one. this is a classic! (i'm always sneaking sprays from my mom's bottle, lol) :P
03/08/09 22:30:13
Please what's the difference between this Tresor and Tresor Eau De Toilett??, cause i received the last one as a gift and it smells very soft and oriental sweet, i love it but a long time ago i used to have the Tresor and i can not recongize any defference, i want to know if is the same aroma.
02/08/09 23:42:01
As Joseph Welch said to Senator McCarthy: 'You have done enough. Have you no sense of decency. . . at long last?'
Unbearable.
Unbearable.
02/04/09 18:10:18
i agree,this perfume is insipide ,sour.i don t find it oriental at all,smells very light.i don t like the bottle either and i wouldn t spend my money on it in any case!
02/04/09 14:30:59
Tresor smells sour. I don't like the apricot smell. It is not something that makes me happy, so I will not buy it. I don't even want to have it for free. I know that it is a classic, but it doesn't suit my taste.
02/04/09 12:20:20
definately not one of my favorites. got it 2 times from 2 different people. for me it stays on too long and there's a "sweet-girl" smell to it that doesn't fit me. i like the powdery and floral touches but miss the warmth of a fireplace. of course this is my personal opinion, lots of people seem to love the smell and it's recommended to me in perfume stores several times. a tip: try a sample first. think you like it of hate it
01/24/09 09:00:41
my mum bought a new bottle today and she can not stop smelling that lovely scent
01/17/09 10:37:53
I hate this scent. As the impression of old apricot shot and mixtures notes are not a success, very ugly. I do not really smell. When I tested it, I was directly fixed
01/08/09 14:26:04
I bought this a few years ago, it's a classy musk, nice daytime fragrance.
01/08/09 14:15:21
It was my first ever perfume and for sentimental reasons i love it.
It is sweet and comforting BUT
1. I smell ALOT of alcohol
2. It gives me the worst headache
I will never buy it again

Peanuts. Tresor reminds me of sweet peanuts. It is very pronounced at first, but the nuttiness never really goes away. Now here's the really weird thing- I kind of like it. It's kind of like the gourmands- if you are in the mood to smell like food, Tresor's nuts aren't a bad food to smell like. I would pick these peanuts over "Angel's" chocolate any day!
12/27/08 18:02:13
Okay! I give up and want Tresor NOW. I know I wrote that I would wear it when I`ll be more confident and mature, but I take my words back. It`s divine, gorgeous and may be the best Lancome ever...I tested it once again today and marveled at it`s beauty once more.So feminine, warm, content and everything you can wish to find in a perfume.
12/23/08 17:56:36
I have been using Tresor for almost 15 years. I used to like it a lot, but in the last few years i feel a strange smell in Lancome perfumes that really disturbs me and i cant explain what that stinky smell is... So i want wear this perfume any more... I tried Magnifique today, and there was this same ugly scent in it. I dont know what it is but it is very synthetic...
12/23/08 16:50:39
Love it. My mother used to wear Poeme. It gave us all headaches. Then someone gave her Tresor. Ah, so nice, no headaches, so classy and beautiful. I've bought others for myself but deep down, really wanted Tresor. Mom can't keep her bottle from going empty. Everyone wants a spritz as they go past it, so for Christmas 08 I bought her the bath powder.
12/21/08 12:09:51
I think Tresor is marvelous. Such of lovely romantic fragrance. Love the apricot and rose,just so pretty. I get compliments all the time when I wear this fragrance.
12/15/08 19:30:55
Initially I did not have a liking for Tresor, as I smelt it on someone else and it just didnt smell appealing. While looking for a present for a friend who loves heavy orientals I gave it a test on my own skin and was amazed. I bought it then and there. Very flowery and pretty.
12/14/08 20:50:23
Ah Tresor! After one day of sampling and testing newbies, most of them too light, too neutral, too safe, too blaah, it was a real treat to spray on Tresor. Soft peaches, sweet heliotrope and jasmine playing nicely together. Feminine and flirty, and not at all for "for older ladys only" (and how I do hate when people use that term on perfumes), this is young at heart. Tresor kicks most new perfumes little, skinny butts!
12/13/08 10:19:37
I didn't like it on the first, second or third sniffing - but on the fourth it started to grow on me. I must sniff it again to do it justice...
11/20/08 22:41:10
Almost all of you have mentioned, that it is a quite heavy scent. I've tried it many times, but I did not find it heavy, even more - I think it is a light spring perfume, and I thought I can wear it in the office, since it is not too outstanding... Very strange, how different the tastes can be.
11/18/08 05:59:09
Not for the shy. I have found men compliment this scent quite a bit. I really detect the peach in this one but it isn't really a soft peach-this is a rather sharp-smelling perfume and is not subtle. The staying power of this perfume is unreal-it lasts all day and then some. I wore this for many years but no longer use it. However, I do think it is an intersting scent for a confident woman. I would suggest taking it for a test run before purchasing a bottle to see how it works for your chemistry because it is quite heavy.
11/02/08 07:03:44
My mums got everything with it its probably the only perfume shes got but she adores it
10/21/08 00:36:41
I have a cute little bottle of this one. Sometimes i like it, sometimes i don't. It depends on my mood. If i fell sexy and confident i love to wear it.
Many people think this is an old ladys perfume but i disagree.
This parfume is for confident women in combination with high heels and a bold eye liner. So my tip is to try this perfume while feeling confident and sexy, it's in that state of mind you can appreciate and carry it with it's full potential!
(Men seems to likes it... but it might also be the high heels ;)

Truly fruity- floral scent... intense apricot and peach, with jasmine, amber, musk and a bit of vanilla ...
For me it's have a little fragrance of coffee dessert ...
Could be nice to women that likes be noticed by their perfume wherever they walking. I can imagine a beauty face woman with 1/2 hell leather shoes, and cotton or linen formal clothes, of neutral colors...

10/18/08 14:12:39
I like it, but I am a bit shy to wear it. It smells very unique and 100% recognizable!On my skin it smells strongly of yellow roses, the ones that are almost ready to shed petals and already started to fade. I also feel heliotrope and ripe juicy peach.In my opinion,you have to be either very confident - classic-style, modest-chic kind of confident - or in your late 30s and older.I will definitely wear it when my time comes.
10/17/08 18:50:02
My favorite perfume, it can transported me to a better place, evey time I wear it.
10/14/08 07:55:53
sharp and too sweet at the first,but then you might find it so romantic.
10/10/08 07:42:41
I've always gotten compliments on it, especially from men. It's really strong and all you need is a little bit and it goes a long way which is what I like about it. I would describe it as a strong sexy, powerful fragrance that only certain women can pull off.
10/07/08 06:11:39
On me it smells very sweet almonds. Too sweet I think. It would make a nice body lotion though! :)
10/04/08 12:58:17
it's a attractive scent , i get many compliments when im wearing it ..
10/04/08 12:25:31
This perfume just wasn't for me. Im not sure what I dont like about it. Maybe that it wasn't anything special. And I have no sweet or special memories attached to it.
09/29/08 14:31:13
Smelled this again after many years...
Forgot all about it, but this is what my mother used to wear (as many other mum's as I can read below!)and it smells soooo good on her! Very warm, feminine, soft, sweet and elegant. And yes, it is right; a little goes a long way...

I love this perfume for this close intimate occasions! It is very sensual.
09/24/08 11:56:50
Looks like a perfectly beautiful blend of Floral and fruit, so I don't know why it's an oriental floral?? Aside from the lilac, I adore this fragrance. It's sophisticated and elegant, but young and fruity. Perfect all year round because of the warm pleasent smell and the fruity floral summery hint. Perhaps I only like it because I'm very young, but I just like it. You should try it on yourself before you buy it.
09/20/08 18:29:33
i like this... very senzual and so elegant. perfect for a romantic dinner
09/20/08 05:47:26
I absolutely loved it when I was younger and wore it almost daily. On me, too, the apricot scent was the strongest. I haven't smelled it in a while and am not sure if I would still like it, as I have strayed away from warmer scents. But I remember that it was super pretty and that men loved it.
09/05/08 15:38:23
It smells nice on older ladies. I won't be wearing it till I'm in my 40's..
09/05/08 14:07:19
Alongside with CK One, Tresor is THE fragrance of the 90's. A classic perfume but too sweet and "heavy" to my taste. I liked it when I was a teenager but wouldn't wear it today.
08/31/08 02:02:48
Tresor is said to have notes of lilac and apricot, with lower notes with amber and musk. The lilac, apricot & amber come through the most on my skin. On me Tresor smells similar to Champs Elysees. I have it, but I don't wear it too much. It is great for scenting stationary.
01/22/08 19:56:17
I have to agree... I wanted to like it... it is like a classic piece of perfume history but it just smells like something a very old woman would wear... I just don't like it.
12/31/07 21:42:24
i love this scent it reminds me of my mother. who pasted away
11/05/07 17:00:31
It's flowery, romantic, perfect for dream girls. Elegant, very 'french', seductive, classic.
11/05/07 14:32:16
I have tried to like this -- over and over, again. And my conclusion is the same, time and time again -- it's repulsive.
