Tresor Lancome for women

I hate this scent! Someone swap with me and take it away!

...finally I gave it to my mum.She's addicted with that glorious smell,even it has been reformulated.

Apparently Lancome fragrances and I do not get along. I smelled Tresor in a magazine ad and loved the hint of apricot, but all I got when I tested it was musty, powdery iris. I detected absolutely no apricot or any fruity notes. Such a bummer...purple flowers like iris and violets are some of my favorite flowers, but when I try to wear them in perfume they make me smell like my Nana.

I remember smelling this perfume on my mother when I was 6 years old. I loved the smell of apricot and vanilla in Tresor. She doesn't have it anymore because it ran out, but I'm going to try to get it online to have my own treasure.

I have 25/30ml bottle edp for swap or buy in Belgium or EU.
Check out my swap list or reviews for the other swaps!

On me Tresor smells nearly identical to Guerlain's Champs Elysees, except Tresor seems a bit woodier. Overall, a nice scent and I like it. It can be worn for any occasion. Though, I like Champs Elysees better on me.

I had this in 1990; me, my sister and my mum made use of it and it was ... our secret and joy to share. When it finished we only had another big bottle and then that was it. Last year I bought it again for memory's sake and I have to say it still has its charm, really, we fell in love again. Scouring small perfume shops in remote places of Italy I came across bottles dated 1990 and bought two. God, did I know it was the real thing! The sense of smell really has grand memories! When I put on the vintage juice I noticed that the peach is almost half fermented and the rose is oily and thick. The more you wear it, swirls of peach and moss and what I call crunchy tonka beans come to life as if programmed to refresh the memory of the scent. Cedar keeps company till the end and creates a fresh but golden aura around you. The new version instead, albeit keeping high the scent's original spirit, reveals itself as more powdery with rose and less fermented but more wearable peach (I wear the new version to work and the vintage one for outgoings) and a more vanillic touch towards the end. The vintage version also reminds me of the peachy Diamonds and Rubies, also created by Sophia Grojsman. Tresor is the perfume of my family, of good memories of time passed, of hope, the smell of home. I keep it in my heart.

You know what if I was given this as a gift Id be thrilled - It really is a little tresore LOL

Im off the designer wagon right now and in the Niche Limo, however, my neighbour passed me the other day and immediately I said "you're wearing Tresor, right?" Yup, I was right. The projection on this is HHUUGGE tooti-fruti floral beauty.

Universally pleasant on the nose - reminds me a little of fruity wine -- and it LASTS a long time.

Smack my peach-up! Love it! x

ca 18 years ago, when I was young and pretty, Tresor was my dream with very big letter D. I couldn´t effort to buy perfume, well, I couldn´t buy a lots of things those days. Anyway every time I passed perfumery I dropped in just to smell it, just to keep fairytale of lovely smell inside of my hungry nose. I looked at commercials, magazines... Tresor was there like my life target ;) I did something horrible. I bought so called: imitation. Mea culpa. Like I wrote: couldn´t effort. After many years when I could buy whatever I wanted and I kept Tresor in my hand, so desired, so legendary in my mind, so... I understood that magic was gone. Maybe I destroyed it with imitation or maybe it was like with waiting for a most handsome guy at school will say: hi? I don´t know. I know that waiting kills. Don´t wait. Do what you want to do. Buy your perfume or... Just go for life. Don´t wait.

Iound this an intense scent but liked it so i sprayed it on the wrist and would see how i went as the day went on.

There seemed to be a strong resin like scent for a long while then out of nowhere the powder scne came through and was beautifully pleasant thought that did not last long and the scent pretty much died down after that.

It only lasted about 4-5hrs and most of the time i was 52% don't like and 48% do like.

I loved this when I was about 18 years old. It had the sophistication that I very much wanted to project. I don't wear it much anymore but still quite like this one. It is one of the more unique fragrances. Nothing else quite like Tresor.

'Nose' Sophia Grojsman made some of my favorite perfumes, but alas, Tresor is not one of them. From all the pretty notes mentioned above, I only get wood that is burning. Not in a pleasant way like Cabochard or even Cabaret where the smoky wood sensation is teamed up with other notes that enhance and beautify it. No, it's a pile of moldy wood dowsed with bad fruit. I really wanted to like this one, but on my skin its horrible! Definitely not for me.

i love this scent - it smells of roses and peaches. Wonderful, beautiful, timeless... and shick

I really hate the smell of this, it is repulsive, gives me a headache even when I smell it on others.

yuck! it smells horrible! I agree with the other reviewer, it's repulsive. 'nuff said!

I have a mini bottle but i Think it is oldladish lol ;) There are to much bittery tree and musk notes and i dont like the rose-apricot-peach comb

This is one of my other signature fragrances. It is a beautiful floral that's not too sweet on me. After a few hours I can smell the rose blended with sandalwood & vanilla that is just heavenly! A very classic, romantic floral that is not overpowering or bother my allergies. And it lasts & lasts on me!!!

Woody is the keynote of Tresor, a very thick dry wood. I like the peachy/rosey topnotes but they are too weak. I was looking forward to Tresor but it startled me to find it not as floral as I was hoping. It has been compared with Amarige but it is nothing like. The floral is overwhelmed by wood and burnt-spice bitterness in Tresor.

The good part is that it's got more individuality than the usual florals. The bottle is original too : a curious cute little upside-down beehive stack.

It's the sort of scent that people could not quickly identify. I like the interesting aspects of it and I regret that I can't wear it.

A year ago a mere thought of smelling Tresor made me sick. Since then I've been to Spain where almost every second woman seems to wear Tresor, I'm not sure why (the climate perhaps), but it smelled divine there. Testing it back home I quite liked the spicy (and even tobacco)note in the background, but was disappointed by the overall cheapness of smell. Also, to me it doesn't smell like rose at all (at least not like a natural rose), but rather like peach and vetiver. I'm desperately seeking for a similar fragrance of higher quality.

My signature floral blend, any season or occasion. A classic!!!

I love this scent...at the beginning it smells not good, but later - just like an opening of a rose with a wonderful rose and peach smell...Its so beautiful...I always get a lot of compliments when i wear it.

Never liked the smell out of the bottle, but after reading the notes I gave it a try. It smells so different on my skin. It lightened up, wasn't nearly as heavy as I thought it would be. The florals came out stronger than the sweet/fruity notes. I absolutely love this one better than Poeme(too heavy and sweet on me).I'm surprised how much I like this! I am so happy I gave it a try!

Really strong and old lady fragrance, i had it for a present, but i gave it away. Just not my cup of tea. Too nauseate and heavy.

A lot of the people here either love it or hate it. Regretably i really wanted to like this perfume after seeing the components. I was expecting something floral, fruity snd sweet. When I first sniffed the bottle, it didn't smell too bad although I didn't exactly enjoy the scent. Spritzing it on my wrist, the smell hit me and I was immediately reminded of cigarette smoke with a mix of some kind of rotting fruit...Definitely will never try this again. My mom seems to like this scent though..

When I was in high school, my family took a trip to Hawai'i. The day we drove the long winding road to Hana was in the middle of the season when the papayas were falling off the trees and rotting in the road. The sickly sweet stench of decay followed us the entire trip. This is what Tresor does on me. I get an hour of rotting fruit before it dries down into a harsh chemical sweetness that hits the back of my throat like smoke from a refinery.

I got this perfume for years, a classic that has a permanent place in my palette. not for daily use, just for special nights out! very intense, sensual, feminine, warm and sweet... maybe sometimes to sweet?? :)

No wonder about the success. After an extensive test session of many different fragrances at the perfume shop, Trésor was the one that grabbed my attention most. What a beautiful scent!
I sprayed it on my skin and immediatelly perceived a strong resemblance with Yvresse, wich I insanely adore. Trésor is a more warm and powdery fragrance, while Yvresse is more fresh and crisp, with an effervescent vibe. But sure these two share many similarities. When I came home, it all made sense: I did some research and discovered that both were created by the same parfumista: Sophia Grojman.

Trésor opens with a very nice and classy fruity accord, with readily recognizeable notes of peach and appricots, enriched by some beautifully crafted florals. The peach note is incredibly longlasting and the heart of the scent is adorable, with the rose-jasmine-iris triad playing the main role, supported by the warmth and sweetness of the vanilla, musks, amber and an astonishing sandalwood compounding the basenotes.
It's joyful, romantic, playful, classic, ultra feminine... all at the same time. I think it is an ageless scent too, it would suit perfectly women from their 20s to 90s easily. A timeless fragrance. Seriously, I don't thing how could anyone go wrong with this one.

The only thing that may be considered is that I find it a bit too complex to wear as a casual everyday scent, I think it is more special than that. And because of its warmth I believe this scent would do better on cooler weather or at night.

By the way, this juice has just the right potency and is very longlasting.

A total winner.

For me this is not old but classy and luxury. Not for a girl but for a pretty woman who know what they want. It's uneccessary for the old lady I'm a 25 years old who love to wearing woman perfume sometimes. This is gorgeous scent with rose and lilac or Iris. Really romantic and Really beautiful !!

I have yet to discover why, but I find this perfume and all the other perfumes in the Tresor line repulsive. It smells like an old badge of soap on me. I presume it has something to do with a particular note not getting along with my ph.

Years ago I was looking for a perfume suitable for my work as a teacher. Tresor became my signature perfume for the workplace. Tresor is a pleasant, light, soft floral oriental, almost anyone will like. It's quiet, not demanding any attention, but it is there. Tresor was a little bit too pleasant and too quiet for my personal taste, but still loved it. I started experimenting, and I learned to spice Tresor up a little bit by layering it with another perfume to make it more outspoken, a little bit louder one direction or the other. Once I got the hang of this layering, pure ánd mixed Tresor became my 24/7 signature perfume for years. And: almost everybody liked the way I smelled, students included.

one of the most classy frangrances ever. reminds me of my mom, and she never wears perfume..she hates it...BUT this she would dab on certain things like..her robe..the curtains...etc. she would dab a little on hankerchiefs and put em in her drawer! i loved it. i hope to get myself a bottle soon

I love the smell of tresor... on paper. Unfortunately this perfume gives me a terrible migraine. So I had to gave it away :(

Tresor...
I have to say, this fragrance creates in my head a completed sketch for a little masterpiece in the world of perfumery. It is very good and expensive-smelling, the design of the bottle is charming - since the scent was meant to be worn by a charming lady, you know. Besides, I like the way Tresor behaves on my skin: it shows its admireable sweetness and sharp character at a time, I'd even say, a kind of resistence, sometimes a bad temper. It is definitely for a genuine femina).
In addition, I am enjoying the advertising video above, which makes me take a better look at the perfume and like it much better.

Peach candy indeed. Watery sweet peach candy. It reminds me even more of those refreshing, but very sugery peach drinks that are so delicious in summer. But NOT in a perfume. It's nothing like a real juicy, fruity peach, but really synthetic.
To make matters worse for me, I also smell synthetic pineapple and some light rose (which I only like in some rare fragrances, in it's heavy, dark form balanced by spices).
There are some green notes hiding behind the peach that are quite nice, but that's all I like about it. I would even avoid people who are wearing this perfume. Luckily it's quite light, so I'd have to stand very close to the person.
It's fresh and I do understand why people would wear it, but it's not for me, absolutely not.

After the top notes faded, Tresor began to smell incredibly synthetic to me, like children's rubber/plastic toys.

Alright, I went ahead and tried the Lancome Tresor and Jessica Simpson Fancy Love combination charmingly described by another reviewer as a "fragrance nuclear cloud" which people couldn't stop commenting on. Combined, Tresor and Fancy Love form this unexpected, ultra-strong accord of an Abercrombie and Fitch store/AXE Body Spray mashed with unsweetened peach skin. I have no idea how to describe that Abercrombie/AXE smell other than "masculine smokey buzzing", but if you've ever walked by an A&F at the mall, you know what I'm talking about. My brother noticed my perfume when I came home and said I smelled like "a girlier version of Abercrombie & Fitch...the equivalent of a Hollister store." I don't know about y'all, but Hollister isn't exactly what I think of when I want to smell and feel sexy, so for now I'll enjoy the glory of classic Tresor on its own.

I was in my early 20s when i bought a small size of this perfume. Although at the time it seemed to "rich" for me, I loved it enough to buy it for my mother for mother's day. She loved it. Now in my early 30s I belive I would love it too.

sweet like an acidulous apricot pineapple candy, tender because of rose and vanilla, very comforting, but still mature. a good fragrance for a gentle feminine woman.

This is officially my 2011 christmas perfume. I bought it for myself this year, and although in the past I was never 'in love' with it, now I can't get enough.
Not sure why, but it's just the perfect scent right now. So beautiful, and compared to some of my normal scents, this is incredibly subtle.

It's not something I'd usually wear but, wow, this was done right! It's unfortunate that the others that followed could not fill this scent's shoes. Like mom would say, "Don't fix what ain't broke, baby." Original Tresor is where it's at.

This fragrance reminds me of my mom so very much. I want to like Tresor, in fact, I think I do. It's very sweet, syrupy and powdery at the same time. I do not like the way it smells at first spray. Once it hits my skin and dries it seems to do well: soft, sweet, a little powdery. The only fruit I smell is the syrup part of the scent ... it's obviously a nectarine, everything else is floral, powder, and unknown spice.

The scent reminds me of the fall, curling up in a big chunky sweater with a good book and a fire roaring (must be the spice). But it also reminds me of putting on a slinky black dress and going out for a night on the town.

It is a strong, long-lasting scent, so I'd caution anyone wearing this during the day in an office environment where it could be over-powering. One, maybe two sprays should suffice for Tresor.

I find this to be a mature scent, but that could just be because I will always associate this fragrance with my mom, however, it does smell different on me.

Ahhh, the original! This is my Mom's favorite fragrance so for me, when I think of perfume I think of Tresor. She's worn it for as long I can remember. It's a wonderful floral and fruity fragrance full of sophitication and warmth with a perfect powder finish. It's a mature fragrance but the right 20 something could wear it. It is in no way an "old" fragrance. It smells modern and doesn't really seem to age...it's delicate and feminine. Womanly. Striking.

Bright Peach. But a complex Peach that's VERY attention getting, even from far away. Smells like a Fresh peach skin. like a Fresh juicy bite out of an Apricot. This projects clear across any room. IT has a very long life and dries slowly with a very complex bouquet you have to resample again and again. Because you notice different things at different times. Smart. Smart and innovative like the timeless complexity of Chanel No.5, but a completely different Bouquet. It's all there, expertly, seamlessly blended. Less citrus, more sweet "lilac". Not at all boring like the modern sugar bombs & Flower bombs these kids go for.
Good luck trying to get this, everyone makes a MAD dash for it.
Yes.... it does remind me of a very sweet, fresh Peach flavored cigar.
Good for all ages and seasons. Can't go wrong with this.
But Please, Wear it with class & personality. Don't cheapen the line.

For me Tresor is a fragrance of self-confidence.I wear it whenever I want to feel strong and confident. It's absolutely elegant and absolutely office-friendly. and in no case Tresor should be treated like fruity.no way.

On me it smell like tobbaco and dry flowers. I had great expectations about it but i didnot like it.

I think a Man could wear this well, I know I do !

I love it. I really do. Some say it's too old for my age, I couldn't care less. It's yummie and sweet. It's a combination of ripe fruits and flowers. It's romantic and sexy at the same time. I adore the commercial with Penelope, It describes the perfume perfectly!

I've had Trésor on my want list for a while even though I only smelled it out of the bottle. (That day I wore another one on both wrists, and I only test perfume on clean skin).
I finally tested it on paper. Not the same as doing it on skin, but still.
I smelled peach - a LOT of peach. Over-ripe peach on the edge of being rotten. And very very thick sweetness - the "wrong" kind of sweetness. I like thick perfumes, but this is too much. To me it's nauseating! What an unpleasant surprise!
I had to take it off my want list, this I won't be able to stand.

i liked this perfume i have it. when i first got i was a bit afraid about how womanly it would smell. then when i sprayed it on i kinda thought it smelled like Dr. pepper i know weird. but then after a while it melted in to this soft but like not to soft that it smells to feminine.anyways i was standing by my friend one day and this girl walked by and said that's i smelled good. it was the first of many compliments. anyways its a good smell though its not good enough for me to be crazy obsess over.

In the simplist of terms, too me, this smells like peach candy with spices.

If I really pay attention to all notes, surely I can smell the rose and vanilla, sandlewood, pineapple, musk..etc.. even violet

but overall... it's spiced up peach candy,

Two of my least favorite notes in perfume would hve to be peach and pineapple

So needless to say, while I apprecite it, and believe it's well done, I no longer like this perfume at all, it's not something I would ever wear .. peach candy for grown ups... not my cup of tea.

If peach didn't play such a prominent role I might be more inclinded to use this perfume

Too bad, because the quality is there, the longevity and silage are fantastic

1.EDP is a bit harsh for me, more earthy & sharp
2.EDT - this is HEAVENLY! warm, subtly sweet, romantic, feminine, i get peach, with a slight floral twist and an almondy dry down. this fragrance has captured my senses for the last 3 years and no matter what else i sample or buy I'm always back to this. Im young, this is not old. Is there such thing as 'old lady' perfume? only if the perfume wears you.

First = I love peach, 2nd = I love to explore the classic fragrances. But Tresor ? My first mini was so awfully chemical/plastic that I thought it must have gone bad. Left things a while and bought a spray vial to prove how bad my first bottle was. To my dismay the same experience. Tresor just doesn't like me - though 5 hours later it became gentle,comforting, feminine. But that's a long time to wait for a happy dry down. I may even try a decant next as I can't believe this perfume reacts so badly with me compared to the love so deeply expressed on this page !

I had a mini of this around 2001 and I only wore it a couple of times. One of those times I wore it too work and a man at worked asked "Who smells yummy?" Turns out it was me.

I finally bought a full bottle a couple of years ago, but found I did not like it as much. Fast forward 1 1/2 years and a few wearings later ... I fell in love with it.

I don't smell a single flower. I'm a huge lover of florals but too my nose this is a woody gourmand. A gooey caramelly syrupy scent with twigs. As others have said, I too find this a comfort fragrance.

Office ladies should NEVER wear this perfume - I mean anybody can wear whatever they want, but if you care about the people who work near your desk, dont wear this - one of my coworkers wore it, and it gave me a headache throughout the entire day. Kinda like the original "Gio"

My first parfume. I adore it! That s a masterpiece. It's very complete!And very very chic!

I can distinctly remember shopping for a birthday present for my mother when I was about 12. I came across Tresor at a department store, and the sales assistant started doing her pitch, saying how great it was, how much my mother would love it and all that sort of thing. There happened to be another customer at the counter, and the saleswoman enlisted her in the spiel. The woman nodded and smiled and went along with it.

The assistant then became distracted and walked away for a second. The smile fell from the other woman's face as she turned to me and whispered "Don't you dare buy that for your mother! It's just awful!".

my grandma gave a tiny bottle to me when I was a little girl and I sprayed it on my forever friends' teddy bears and I loved it...Not sure it's something I would wear on myself though, smell very old school, not a modern scent, not unpleasant, but just 'older' more mature.

strong mature perfume; slightly powdery and mainly floral, that is strong floral. not for me, one of my mom's favs. manageable in small amounts and can be worn daily but better for the evening. and lasts the whole day.

Shyn's Release: I know exactly what you mean. I used to love this perfume. When it first came out, my mom was wearing the one from the splash bottle. I used to sneak into her room and sniff it when she wasn't home. :o) I remember being intoxicated with it's fragrance. I went to the mall and tried it lately and it was a horrible experience. Just to make sure that it wasn't just "me or my chemistry gone wrong", I brought the expert of this perfume (Mom) to the mall and had her test it. She said: "This isn't Tresor! I don't know what this is but it's vile."

So yeah... Tresor has been reformulated; or as Mom puts it, mutilated. :(

I had a bad experience with this perfume when I had a sample of it. It smelled sooooo bad. That was more than a year ago. Today I smelled it again. WOW it smells really nice. It's yummie. I love peach. I smell peach and cinnamon even though it's not listed. It's really classy and sexy but a bit oldfashioned I must be honest. That doens't bother me but some might not like that. This would be great for winter. Gorgeous perfume.

Gosh I can't figure it out how I went from being totally in love with this to being repulsed by it.I used to love it so much I remeber buying a bottle of it when it first came out.It used to be in a splash bottle I loved it back then.But, fast forward a few years its so strong over powering it feels so dated.Like when I smell it I think of the mall.Not at all what it used to be I really think its been tweaked or my tastes have changed I used to love Posion can't wear that one either.I know this is Lancome's best selling perfume just not for me.I perfer Miracle and the new tresor Midnight Rose.

I apologise because i used to dislike Tresor till i tested on my skin.
And then OMG!
It is so warm, sweet and elegant! Not only for mature ages. I am 21 and i feel that the perfume fits my style.
Cosy and relaxing, makes you feel confident! It is like a cloud of flowers around you, but in a classy way!
I like wearing it when i am home, cocooning and the weather is cold.
Quite strong so you should not over apply, perfect for autumn-winter!
I loooove it!

SEXY WOMAN SMELL....not for girls..it is for a woman.intoxicating to me..i tend to like a scent that will turn my head around. this does that, for the same reason i love clinique.if you wear it right..powerful,sexy and confindent.

what did my nose did to you, lancome!

It gave my fiancé lots of sneeses

"I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright
I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance
They're looking for a little romance, given half a chance
I have never seen that dress you're wearing
Or the highlights in your head that catch your eyes I have been blind
The lady in red is dancing with me cheek to cheek
There's nobody here, it's just you and me, It's where I wanna be
But I hardly know this beauty by my side
I'll never for get, the way you look tonight"

Lady in Red, Chris de Burgh.

A note of warning to those who might want this fragrance...it can appear a bit "retro" standing next to the sickly sweet tarts of today, but this is by no means an old madam. This is a woman in her prime(I picture 30s), and she's mastered the art of femininity down to the core. She was the original lady who decided to get rid of the 80s power hungry Amazon, and decided to have fun being a goddess. She thought, hmm, there is nothing wrong with being sweet, just keep a little respectability. She was tired of competing with the boys and decided she can have as much fun as they can by embracing herself. Love like there is no tomorrow. To love and be loved, and if it doesn't work out, I will still be here.

I smell apricot and peach jam flavored with rosewater and vanilla extract. A tablespoon of lemon is added to tone down the sweetness. To me this is the woman that is not at all naive and does not see the world in rose colored glasses. She sees the good in it still, but she is no innocent. She has earned her curves and hips, and knows what to do with them. She is an experienced young woman, who still has a lot to see. But is not blind to her surroundings. She is as magical and graceful as Isabella Rossellini in the original commercial. And has what probably all thousands after her wanted to mimic. Class. When they couldn't obtain it, gave up and went to follow Angel instead. Fast forward to the wayward spiral of today.

In a league of her own...Untouchable. Love her. I bring her out when I wear a dress, flats and have my hair down. Men look, admire, inhale, and admire some more. Some have "bowed", many have whistled. Some ask if I'm married. Many have stopped and offered me coffee. Boys and men, in all ages follow. Matronly it is not.

Gucci Rush with even more sugary syrup and melted plastic peaches, along with an odd, disjointed powdered tobacco accord that lends an oppressingly heavy feel to the entire composition.

Very, very strong, and coats the back of the throat like a particularly nasty lozenge.

What I like very much about "Tresor" (and "Spellbound") is that one sniff is never enough!
To be honest, you think it's enough and before you know it you want one more. Once again..
The smell was so new when it came out, an ingenious proposal at a time you felt you had smelt it all. Impressive, addictive and full of curves (much like the bottle itself), this is a perfume that creates a bubble around you, asking to be loved!
Well, who could resist you "Tresor"?
I was at a dinner once and at the adjacent table there was a couple. The woman was well mannered, well dressed, overweighted and discreet. When the dinner was over and on my way out, I turned to this lady and said: "Please, do NEVER change this perfume you're wearing!" (imagine this, as if she were my fiancee'!).
Well, "Tresor" can do that to you, you know..
I understand that its pronounced romanticism makes it look like a mature woman's, perfume but, it's our time to be blamed.
Certainly not magnificent "Tresor"!

An advice: Avoid the EDP version. The EDT is more to the point and lasts more than you need as well.

Cant understand why so many people voted dislike. This is an enirely unoffensive and gorgeous scent. I think what makes me so crazy about it is the fact that im not so crazy about it if that makes any sense. It is very low key, an easy one to reach for without thinking. Plus its one of the few things ive tried that have called themselves fruity and ive actually been able to pick up on fruity notes, let alone ones that smell like real fruit. FIVE STARS

1990 was the era of the Sophia Grojsman fruity floral blockbusters. Tresor heralded that era as it bouced on the scene and sold really well! Who could resist this sweet floriental that defined a new generation of sweetness?

Tresor was sticky sweet indulgences that packed on the calories. Its funny how they never showed in a sleek black dress. It was sophisticated, rich and gourmand. Trendy? Of course.

It became sickening after awhile, yet its clones just kept apprearing on the scene. Its funny how it seems so retro in todays market. It was so progressive at the time.

@ Cathy GQ
I had difficulty reading some of the others, after your review could I click on your name to read other reviews you have written - this one is so appealing and you know this perfume as indeed so do I.
But its sense of warmth and reality is impaired with the knowledge that if perfumes can bring someone to love you - then it was beautiful for me - I gained the interest of my Husband - a lovely guy - My Mother borrowed it extensively and got caught up with a beast of a man - my Step-father - that was a tragedy she did not deserve that - he was unworthy of her

After having the experience of sampling both Tresor Midnight Love and Tresor In Love I gained even more of an appreciation of how unique, classic and hypnotic this can be. It´s like the experience of driving a Fiat Cinquecento after you´ve handled a Ferrari - the newer fragance doesn't hold a candle to the original and fails in comparison.
If only lancome would stop using the Tresor moniker on every new fragance dragging the reputation of the original. I would highly recommend this fragance to others and wear it every day. This fragance is truly going back to basics.

A miniature vial of Tresor leaked in my jewelry box back in the days when it came out. Everything inside smelled like Tresor forever! Which got me a little overloaded but I still loved those classical fragrances as a kid. Wouldn't wear it nowadays, when one tries to appear younger, not older ;)

I have this same perfume except the black part in the picture under the cap is clear on mine? Maybe that is how they were in Australia. Anyway I do like it as it is a unique scent. However, I feel that perhaps it is more suited to older women and not the younger market.

There's something terribly terribly wrong about Tresor. I hated it when it cane out in 1992 and now my father's wife wears it and it makes my face feel like Barney's on the Simpsons. To me it's an industrial beige blonde dynel mannequin's wig worn by an actual person. The almond-y milky Miami Beach quality is really disturbing. Makes me think of white birch trees on a kelly green background type of wallpaper with wall to wall white carpeting and white bamboo glass-topped furniture...but that's not the disturbing part; it's the chain-smoking brocade djellaba-wearing square-cut manicured hag sitting there. Some perfumes cover up cigarette smells; Tresor mixes with them and magnifies them, like, well--like a bad cigarette smells soliflore. The art of perfumery used for evil purposes. Should be a Mary Kay scent.

I have to say: This is the only perfume which made a stranger -a guy on the street- openly comment and compliment on my perfume. He said "you smell delicious". Such a bold move for a stranger, inspires Tresor. Powerful stuff then, what can I say? I was over the moon.

I got a perfume sample with a pretty bag for my birthday 19 years ago, and was completely charmed by the smell, but never felt that I could buy a FB. Too pushy and sharp. Somehow, I feel that this scent is rather unique and has made a mark in perfume history. Bet that we will chase it if it would be discontinued.

Tiger_greeneyes, you took the words right out of my mouth, from it feeling like a Sunday, right down to advising EDP rather than the EDT.

A couple of months ago I came home from spraying perfumes on test strips and there was one I couldn't stop sniffing but didn't remember which it was. I found out by chance (it was a blind purchase from ebay a week ago) that it was Tresor.

As with a lot of perfumes, straight after spraying it made me recoil. Once it had had a chance to develop and dry down, it is just about the most comforting perfume I've ever worn. It makes me feel like it's Sunday, I'm curled up on the sofa after a roast dinner, fire crackling, howling wind and rain outside but having that feeling where it's actually a warm, peaceful Spring day and I'm surrounded by warmth and love. It really doesn't get any better than that.

To my nose, it's seamlessly smooth and warm - which I find incredible as there's so many notes present. I've overlooked this perfume every time I've seen it, just like so many others that I'm now looking forward to trying.

A word of advice though - don't be tempted to buy the EDT, it's not a long-lasting option afaic, the EDP is much better value.

I've never tried this on my own skin, but have been smelling it on someone else for 10+ years, so I'm very familiar with it. And man, is this a thick powdery musky floral bomb! I'm sorry but I smell no fruit whatsoever in this concoction. It is very "old fashioned" to my nose. I'd expect to find it on the meticulously arranged vanity of a long retired 40s film star. Cherry blossom, powdery rose, lily of the valley mostly, with musk and amber bringing up the rear. If I may say this, please use this with a light hand ladies!! It is some potent juice. And I realize that this might be a very individual experience, but I just had to put it out there.

There is fantastic cheap substitution for this in Germany: Tristano Onofri, "Tesoro" EdP 100 ml/10!!! €. This is, what I am here talking about. When I first sprayed Tristano´s Onofri "Tresoro" today, I remembered Tresor by Lancome and bought Onofri after a hour on my skin. It is a little bit less sweet in the opening than Tresor, but the drydown is exactly the same. Longevity - pretty long, about 4 hours.

It will forever remind me of my mom and the 90s. She would wear this a lot.

I would not purchase this. hmmm I like clean smells or downright musky smells

This is sweet!

I am IN LOVE IN LOVE IN LOVE with this perfume I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT! I put it on every second! I cant get tired of the smell! I used to have Tresor a while ago and I finished it my mum had one too and finished it and I just had to get another one and LARGE of course!

too much old leathery for me, but I have to say I have many friends wearing Tresor and it smells wonderful on their skin

I own Tresor and I will say that it is a fragrance that the wearer must wait several minutes in order to savor the true aroma and experience (but this goes with any fragrance).

Keep in mind that top notes, middle notes, and base notes are experienced in time increments, with your base notes being the final and longest lasting of the 3. With that being said, you cannot judge a fragrance based on what you smell within the first 10 minutes, because what you smell will not be the final outcome, and this could not be more true than with Tresor.

Believe it or not, this is the fragrance that I have received the most compliments on-- whether I was in a cocktail lounge, at school, or at work, people appreciate it, like it, and go out of their way to compliment me on it.

This one has never worked for me. I know so many who love it, but all I get is synthetic peach and a headache.

Loved it when it first came out, stopped wearing it for many years, got tired of it and just don't like it now. Cloying linear and it has become cliche.

Sweet, warm and calming, there is no matter to you whether there is war outside while you have your favorite steak and wine, like you are the most lucky woman in the world. Too bad it doesn't stay long on my skin.

Too much strong.I don't know why it is popular and so many people like it.For me,all i get is bubble-gum scent.

Top Notes : Ripe Peach.
Middle Notes : Peach with sugar.
Base Notes : Peach with sugar and water.

TOO.MUCH.

Don't like it.

This was my signature scent when I was younger.A marvellous combination of attraction and luxury.But I don't know whether it would work on my skin after twenty years!

Omg i LOVEEEE this perfumei ! It has to be my favorite out of all the perfume i have. And i have alot haha such as paris hilton, armani code, juicy couture viva la juicy, jlo etc. But this one... is amazing. And i dont think its old lady smelling at all :l But everyone has different tastes in perfume which is why there is so much made lol. And its longgggggg lasting too (:

My HOME SCENT-This one is what my daughters call "my signature scent" & whenever someone is wearing it they know exactly what it is. Its very warm- peachy, vanilla-creamy- the only scent i do like with vanilla in it. My husband LOVES it. My daughter bought me a 3.4oz bottle in 07 & I still have it-I dont wear it much & when I do its only a little bit,If its good parfume- a little goes farther & lasts longer than cheap stuff.This one reminds me of window shopping in NYC around xmas for some reason. The bottle is to die for! You know its tresor just by the bottle

At first I hated this. When I first tried it on it smelled exactly like a dark corner of Home Depot's lumber section. But 2 tries later something changed. I finally was able to smell the warm, sweet woodiness and now I really like it. My husband in fact says I smell like pastry!

Blech! Smells like a big peach bomb! I hated this scent from day one. Then, a few years later, my soon to be husband came home with a bottle of it for me. It was the first gift he ever surprised me with, and I could never tell him how it made me ill to smell it. Fast forward 10 years.....that ill feeling the Tressor gave me should have been a warning of my doomed marriage...it too, made me sick and ill. At least the Tressor, I could scrub off my skin. The ex husband who gave it to me took three years of divorce court to get rid of!

I always thought Tresor was very sexy--definitely old school. I was almost intimidated to wear it, being a floral green, rose-y kind of girl. It is definitely one of those scents that changes drastically depending on the wearer.

It makes me dizzy. I don't like the smell.

Tresor by Lancome is something poetic fruity and floral notes seem to make a rock that releases emotions swing from the sublime end is woody and amber, on the whole there is a pink flower of love for fragrance excellence.The fragrance vaguely reminiscent of the bedrooms of the past, where on the dresser were the most precious perfumes and essences with boxes of powder and statuettes of mother of pearl, the pearl itself reminiscent of the inside of a shell, smooth, dry
and iridescent This is the summary of Tresor ...
Very romantic.

Aaaah, Trésor, why do I love you so, but you didnt seem to "sit" well on my skin? A great pity as I adored this perfume. It reminds me of soft ripe fruity apricots sprinked with spices and left to sit in a wooden basket on the step of a French cottage in the Provence, in the evening sun. Trésor went on well but after about 1 hour it developed into something sweet and strong that only gave me a headache. It smelled divine on my boyfriend's sister and the sillage was fantastic, like I was left with this beautiful floaty fragrant syrupy orange cloud when she had gone LOL How I wished it had the same effect on me but regretably it was not to be. The lighter Trésor version didnt appeal to me at all. This is a truly classic modern fragrance, soft, warm and vibrant but it broke my heart as it was not for me :(

Always liked this have a little left to use in an old bottle. It smells on me very nice, in that it is spicy feminine yet powdery. Stays on you, you really dont need a lot to experience the notes. It reminds me of how Estee Tuscany per Donna smelled
on me. I likely wouldnt buy again because I like 1-2 other Lancome scents better.

Stupefyingly awful, at least on me. Overpowering to the point that I had to wash it off before my sister would get into the car with me (I sprayed it ONCE). Like wearing a battle between fruits and flowers. The rose, apricot and pineapple clash horribly, and in confusion of the ensuing massacre, the jasmine takes everyone hostage. Makes me feel slightly nauseous even to remember it. No thanks.

most of the reviews show the fact that this one is a love or hate perfume, not a soft one that suits every occasion & you can just like it and move on, for me, this perfume is pure love, sensual, unique... must be the chemistry, i'm so happy it worked for me as most of the notes in it are some of my faves

I don't consider this to be an old lady scent at all. I think it is a classic, beautiful, romantic scent. I love this on other people, but my sister in law let me try on her Tresor once and I hated it on myself. It started off smelling like a watered down version of Calvin Klein Eternity, then quickly disintegrated into a pungant (almost clove like) stench. I don't know what reacted so badly with my body chemistry. But I suspect the peach combining oddly with something (although I don't get any fruitiness whatsoever) as peach frequently doesn't sit well with my chemistry, and it is the only note listed in this that doesn't go well with me. I might give it a try again some time in different weather and see if that makes any difference, I'd really like to be able to wear this one. :(

Two days ago I had a chance to try it on my skin for a day. It is a nice, little bit soapy and creamy parfume.
But I was not comfortable with one of its notes, at the begining something was wrong for me and at the drydown too.
And I have a hand-wash in my bathroom, it has APRICOT sent - when I washed my hands I realiezed what was not working for me in the TRESOR : the apricot!!!Just not for me at all...
But if you are the one who love apricot - give it a shot!! Good parfume :) Worth trying :)

I do not like. It smells of old leather upholstery, torn with campari shed

Opinion mexicana :). Jajaja porque el odio a su olor? sere rara porque a mi me gusta, no destaca en una coleccion pero me gusta, es clasica, elegante y usable para citas romanticas.

If you are among the many who like this exquisite juice, you surely fell for it at first spritz! In fact this is a truly romantic fragrance. I loved Wristsniffer’s review, and also think Trésor is about falling in love, so I understand this fragrance in terms of the erotic connotations it holds for me. This perfume is based, not surprisingly, on rose, the all-time symbol for love. Indeed, “L’amour est un trésor”, as is said in the fascinatingly lyrical Kate Winslet commercial.

From its very opening, Trésor exudes love and passion; we could even say this is an overemotional scent, redolent of torridness and lit-up sensuality, and the wonderful excesses of passion. It’s not surprising many reviewers related this scent to rotting flowers. It does smell rather excessive and there’s a certain feeling of saturation to it. In fact I can get a hint of overripe fruit in it (maybe the dirty orris root intensifies this effect). All this reminds me of another kind of “opening”, the start of a romantic affair, with its sensual awakening, ardently excessive too. This luscious opening develops into a powdery, more comforting and somewhat bittersweet heart, and then a cozily warm dry-down. The passionate scent from the beginning becomes a more harmonic scent in the end: as the ardor becomes more subdued, Trésor-the lover becomes Trésor-the partner, like in a long-term relationship. I can’t help romanticizing the fragrance in this way. That’s just how I feel about it :) !

Trésor opens with the warm fruity exuberance of creamy, opulent pineapple, fleshy peach and sensual apricot flower, all enticingly exotic, and it settles down into a sweet sensuality and an intensity that some of us may understandably consider too overpowering. I can think of very few examples among the perfumes I know in which the concepts “headiness” and “classiness” are so compatible!

The flowers are the least noticeable notes in this scent; it seems we are all more aware of the far more conspicuous fruity notes. But this fragrance is syrupy and fruity in a classy way, not in the way fruity fragrances are these days. They absolutely lack Trésor’s romantic depth.

Luscious, elegant, voluptuous, seductive… Another alluring masterpiece by the great Sophia Grojsman we fell in love with in the 90s, and in my case this one will definitely prove love for life.

First "big girl" perfume I have ever owed! I was 18 =)
I just love its elegant scent. Its fragrance is a combination of rose, lilac and apricot blossom. It has a long-lasting effect but is never too overpowering. I had gotten nothing but compliments every time I wore it. From men mostly..and some woman too. My ex-boyfriend even claimed it had an aphrodisiac effect on him. ;) lol Dork! hehe We were 18! Young and silly.

Tresor seems to hold a love hate relation with many here.

Sampled it last night and can say that I am in love with this gem of 90s. It starts like a burst of floral notes mixed with a bit fruit notes so that it calms down heavy florals a bit. Due to its such sharp opening, people seem to find it repulsive. And these heavy florals remain on the skin till it fades. It's not easy to single out any floral note in it as it's a complex mix of all floral notes. But there's one note that seems to have been added in such a way as if it has been wrapped around them all and that's the 'peach note'. I actually like the smell of peaches of apricots and that's what seems suitable to be added with such a puzzle of florals here.

On the whole, I love it and is not for everyone and suitably for those who can carry it well. Very feminine just like Sophia Grojsman's other creations.

Chris v V---thank you for the sample!

HORRIBLE. I just received a sample of this and it is the most repulsive, pungent smell, I feel like my nostrils have been assaulted. How can anyone like this? I must wash this from my wrist ASAP!

Totally smells like Lush's "Snow Fairy" on my skin :D great :D

I've been told Tresor lotion/cream is the best way to wear this scent. I have a hard time with it personally, but love it on almost everyone else.

I actually have this and have recently tried wearing it again. I still couldn't really tell you what it smells like. I find it completely forgettable. Rose and vanilla? Classic in a stunningly boring way, like being shown round a museaum or art exhibition. You want to appear sophisticated and appreciative but you'd really rather go somewhere exciting. At the very least you wish you could nip out and have a cigarette to relieve the tedium.

Upon first sniff there is an overpowering note in this that is too strong for me, but thankfully as it dissipates the result is a very pleasant perfume. It is definetely a heady fragrance but if not over applied it can be very elegant. I have only purchased the rollerball in tresor because I felt the EDP might be too sharp. Infact I mixed this today with Elizabeth Arden Splendor and I was pleasantly surprised. One day I might purchase the edp just to experience what that smells like, and on its own. I love Lancome. Every fragrance I've tried from Lancome is different from eachother in every possible way, not like a lot of other perfume houses where so many scents seem to play off eachother. Tresor is odd to me like Magie Noire is, very different, truly original

Sadly I have finished my bottle of this beautiful fragrance. It is the one perfume that I wear that men are compelled to ask me what it is, which can only be a good thing. Love this, so perfect for everything and everyday. Not overly strong, so a great perfume to wear to the cinema or to a restaurant.

This scent gives every women in my family migraines. Seriously if I'm stuck in a elevator with someone with this on- I'm sick for the whole day. And I'm not just fragrance sensitive...I can smell most other scents all day long. Except Armani Code...it may be worse.

I had it years ago. I liked it but it was to heavy for me, probably because of my age. Maybe now that I'm 30 I'd love it.

Just bought a small bottle of this in a fit of nostalgia- couldn't even remember what it smelt like, but one squirt and i was transported back in a sort of fuzzy golden haze to the early 90's when i was still quite young, living in my own tiny flat which was my "castle", with almost all my dreams still intact. i used to spend hours just sitting daydreaming on my sofa with the sunlight streaming through the window, looking out on a little bit of park with trees and rose bushes. I notice a lot of lilac when i first spray it on. it's quite strong, obviously a late 80's early 90's era smell. But recently i've been rediscovering some of these and actually they are not only b*oody good but also have this effect of taking me back in time. I remember once having had to do a particularly smelly job at work (hospital) and afterwards emptying a whole sample of this one over my head. It's a very ladylike smell, romantic without being sickly sweet, not too heavy, i can see why it's stuck around so long. it's also unlike most other perfumes i've smelled, sort of stands out on it's own. the colour goes with the warm peachiness of the fragrance. quite a bit of rose in this as well. i see this as a sort of last chance for me to have some of these older perfumes before they vanish into the past, although the better houses do tend to keep their best selling perfumes longer. This is a truly lovely perfume, which i'm pleased to have back in my collection. Golden summer memories of almost 20 years ago.

If you're not acquainted with Tresor, watch the ad where Kate Winslet performs and you'll get the picture very well. Once it was very helpful to me as I tried to understand what Tresor was all about :)

I loved this when it came out. I had a substantially sized mini. The first night I wore it out to a club downtown, nyc. Let's just say it was a "hit!" Recently, discovered my love for a spicy rose and remembered Tresor. So glad I did because I am loving this one. It's spiced peaches and rose with an apricot smoke in the background. It warms up on my skin and just smells like the most romantic, heavenly scent...I know for a fact men love this one!

This is definitely my "night" perfume.

This is a re-review: On an unseasonably warm and golden sunlit day I decided to re try this one and I experienced it in a totally new way, what I perceived as overripe last time became lush and as golden as the sun shining through the windows. Malegria calls this frag 'content' and that's accurate.
This is a scent that's not trying too hard, this is warm, feminine comfort and I really like it!!

This perfume has elegance and success rolled into one. A must-have for celebrations such as the Oscars.

This scent always smells different on me...some days I get the yummiest, ambery-creamy honey-peachy floral, dancing on a base of smooth and dry woodsy notes...the apricot note is just so delicious, like rich, dripping golden nectar mixing with the softest, dreamy florals...

But then some days it smells like the dust of decade old potpourri and the fruit notes smell rotten! What is that about?? I've never had this problem with any other scent. Well anyway, when it's good, it's really good. When it's bad...BLEGH!! What is wrong with me? I feel like I have 2 noses when it comes to this scent. If only it didn't have a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde effect on me, I could really fall in love with this one. Oh, I'm 25 and I don't think it smells old lady at all, it's just strong and fullbodied...use sparingly and it can be very comforting, seductive and feminine...the opposite of 'old lady'.

I like this scent though I can't put my finger on why. I like the sillage and it has very good lasting power. It smells like sweet flowers to me. My boyfriend likes it as well.

Favourite of my bestest girl pall.
She missing it dearly, and always sais :

It goes well with cigarettes.

I adore Tresor. To me it is like finding an oasis in the desert. I recently joined Fragrantica and soon after renewed my interest in perfumes and started collecting them again. In the past couple of months I have bought about 10 used perfumes on eBay, and 10 new discounted perfumes at Marshall's. They've all smelled awful to me! Too chemical, too synthetic, fake, harsh, offensive, stinky - I could not wear them and I had to return or resell them all.

Then I signed up for a Fragrantica contest last month and won a 1 oz. bottle of Tresor - the box was signed by fragrance's creator, Sophia Grojsman. What a wonderful treasure, it truly lives up to it's name. Tresor has a soft, sweet, feminine, heavenly smell - this, to me, is what a woman's perfume should smell like! There is nothing synthetic or "fake" about it. It initially has a strong blast of roses and sweet apricots. Other reviewers here mention peach, but Tresor is all about APRICOT!! (There's a difference between peach and apricot, ladies!). The drydown brings the delight of a creamy, luscious apricot/amber/vanilla aroma that lingers a long time, in a most romantic and luxurious way. Caramel is not listed as a note, but I get it too, giving a gourmand quality to this fragrance. To some it may seem too sweet and cloying - it is strong, so use it sparingly. I am thrilled with Tresor, and will use it for years to come.

sampled it today because I read alot about it but didn't find it special at all and did not realy stand out to me. I was expecting something peachy (apricot) to come through but I didn't catch it. I guess I saved myself some money.

This is such a lovley and romantic scent. It something for the good girl in you,it perfect for an intimate dinner.

My grandmother gives me this scent every xmas. At first it was to much to handle but I kept at it and now I use it alot. I always get so many compliments when I wear it. The staying power is good as well.

A very soft powdery rose perfume. I have a friend who loves it, but for me, it's just too powdery. I prefer Ombre Rose so I can have a touch of Oriental spice, and this fragrance lacks that. For me, it is a pretty perfume, sort of "old lady-ish", nothing magical about it. For me, all I can smell is a powdery rose. It does mix well with other floral, particularly rose florals (like True Love, 1881, 273, Rumour) but does not mix well with the fabulous Joy or Beautiful (I have tried). I'll use it up and then not buy it again. For a truly magical powdery rose, I highly recommend Ombre Rose, which is far more romantic than Tresor.

Where is the place for EDT version in here ??? Very big different relationship along both of them ,,,I do prefer EDT more than EDP,less sharp and pungent combo more wearable ,light, smooth ,very sheer but really last on me.

I agree there was some reformulation and something changed.. I remember it differently & you can read my past review based on that, and now it has a very sharp note on me which it was never like before. That note just kills it.. I gave it away to my sister who it does not really show up on and she adores it. When I am in the mood for something like my old Tresor, I put on Estee Lauder's Tuscany Per Donna (yep they still carry it) it is rather similar.. a little different though.. I'm sad about my new experience with Tresor..

It is really sad...such a good fragrance, a reminder of past romantic moments..to have such a bad end and reformulation...I loved it, i wore it when i was 16years old...i remembered something else, i repurchased it and nothing seems to be the same...The only fortunate thing is that the body lotion is a little bit closer to the older wonderful and romantic tresor...that suits so much to isabella rosellini s face

I use to like it a lot back in past years. Many years. Did it change? Probably my nose changed and also skin chemistry. I still like it for what it is: an intense romantic peachy-ambery rose with many facets. On some people it just blooms!
I used to love YSL Paris, which is very different in spite being about rose as well.
Both are too strong for me now and somehow too simple, but I think they are still beautiful in their own way.
I don't like to give age range to perfumes, but I think I can say that Tresor is a little old, just because of my memory. Too smelled around before, immediately recognisible. It's a big statement fragrance, with good sillage and lasting power.
What I don't like right now in Tresor is the woody base that now smells too powdery and musty on my skin.
All in all a great work of commercial perfumery. Give it a try, there are many testers around, and find for yourself if it fits your desires.

Strange, that when i was younger i used to like this fragrance, but today i have tried it and couldn´t understand what it is all about! I guess i just don´t like rose scents anymore. All i get is dusty rose, rose, rose, nothing else. For me it is one-sideed scent. Maybe i will change my mind later, but now i am putting this one to the far corner of my closet.
Now i know that this one has been reformulated and it makes sense!! I still have a mini and a soap and they smell much better than those they sell now.

Another very heavy, mature and strong perfume from Lancome. Recommended for 45+

I personally don't like it. I don't think its good for the ones with fair skin. Strangely, it reminds me of a rich old woman over her 50s who wears disgusting real fur, have double rum parties at home with her folks and goes over Sotheby's catalogues for diamond rings.

oh and just like Poem, it might trigger your migraine if you have it...

Tresor is a perfume I wanted to like. I've tried this on so many times. I even owned it 15 years ago before I understood how to choose fragrances. It just never worked on me. I love the color and the bottle. It looks so inviting. All the descriptions of it sound enticing and romantic, like powdery, warm, peaches and cream, sweet, etc. But on me it smells very tart--definitely not peaches and cream. It's more like peaches and plain yogurt.

From far away, Trésor smells exactly like its color - sweet, light apricot blushed with delicate rose, warm and translucent. I can understand why so many women (and men!) love it: the fruit is sweet but not artificial or cloying, the flowers are full and romantic, and the amber and musk lend it a warmly-spiced base. It's classy and comforting, and it leaves that delicate apricot-rose trail wherever it goes. Its staying power is also incredible.

Unfortunately, I grew up taking a certain cough syrup... and somewhere in the heart of this fragrance lingers a note that I can only describe as "Robitussin-esque!" That said, the bottle is beautiful, and the name is lovely - and it appears clear from the reviews that many have come to... well, treasure it.

i love the bottle and really wanted to like the frgrance. sadly, i didn't.

This is way too syrupy for me. I had this but gave it away to my mom. All I get is peaches in a heavy, sweet syrup and a ton of rose. Bad combo for my tastes.

I have ambivalent feelings for Tresor. I don't like the opening at all. It's too heavy and headache inducing. The drydown is actually quite lovely, maybe even seductive, but not at all heavy. The peach, musk, amber and especially the apricot stands out most to my nose. Tresor's drydown reminds me a lot of Neblina by Yves Rocher which I loved. I think I would've loved this fragrance if the opening had been more appealing to me. What a pity.

Treson starts soft, warm and peach in an old-time-glam way, it reminds me of Mitsuko, but in Treson, the peach is optimistic but not overly bubbly or excited (like those sweet fruity girly pink perfume), is relaxed but not the wasted-relax (like the feeling sometimes YSL Opium evokes), is self-assured, but not as cold as a business woman (like Chanel No.19).

Then there’s a bouquet of really muted, tart, soft, possibly boiled flower scent, which softens the already-soft peach by quite a lot; and the combo just blends better and better. At this stage, I think the colour of the juice is perfectly captures what Treson smells like, it isn’t as golden and showy as say..J’adore by Dior, it is not as intense as Femme by Rochas, it’s not exactly happy or sad, it is just content, nice, romantic in a low-profile sense, like a long-term relationship.

Every now and then, Treson makes me think of the Play-doh I played with when I was little, there must be some notes in it reminiscent Play-doh; but in Treson, things are quite harmonic, and wearable as a perfume. As Treson dries down, a certain nutty/dusty notes comes and stays quite dominant, which makes it warmer, more muted and tart in a relaxed way.

I didn’t like Treson at all when it was three years ago when I was 19. I like it now, appreciate the perfume, but find it hard to pull off in my daily life, because I just find myself shy of the kinda experience in life, to really wear Treson and make it shine on me. However, I would say, in my later 20s, one day, maybe Treson would be one of my highly used perfume for day time.
Highly recommend to most people who are 25+.

Tresor is a very nice french parfum, no matter what.
Best worn in colder weather and best when applied with a light and reserved hand. This perfume is not a body spray for angels sake! You need to have some class to wear it. You need to have confidence to wear it. You need to care about your body, mind, and spirit to wear it.
Tresor smells like a peachy-apricot-ambery-sandalwoody-musk vanilla on my skin. There is also a very slight powdery vibe to it. The rose note is like you would smell a rose bunch from afar, very diluted.
The bottle is artsy. The color of the juice is correct.
My man likes this scent too and he has bought Tresor for me as well.
Just so you know that I am not an "old lady". I am a woman that eats right, doesn't smoke, doesn't do drugs, works out at a gym 5x per week and even lifts weights, wears nice clothes, appreciates well designed art and jewelry, loves sex, drives a nice car, and likes french fashion designs. I'm a 40 year old American woman and I've even had 30 year old hunk-of-burning love men ask me out. Tresor fits me perfectly.

This was recommended to me, but I was not terribly enamored, and neither was my husband. It is PEACHY. Very peachy. If you love peach, you will love this.

Nothing particularly constructive to say, other than I hate this scent. I gave it to my grandmother. She covers herself in this every morning. It smells perfectly acceptable on her, she's a very youthful and feminine older woman, and she wears it well...But...I can't stand it on me or in the bottle. SO overpowering.

I'm so surprised to see that so many people don't like it! It was one of the first perfumes I considered PERFECT: rounded, elegant, well blended composition with no outstanding note. It's a very elegant and romantic floral, simply wonderful.

This one has definite opinions about who it wants to beguile and who it doesn't. It went on me the way I remember it smelling in the magazines- rotting fruit. But as it started to settle down, about 20-30 minutes in, it decided it liked me and let loose an ambery and musky peach. Beautiful. I don't smell the flowers here at all but the peach and amber are absolutely stunning. It reminds me of sitting near a fireplace with a cozy throw.

Tresor is a nice and soft sweet smelling fragrance I love anything with a hint of oriental sweetness to it.This smells like a hint of honey was added to this

7.5/10

Mentholated peach, rose, and vanilla. It's great!

I am not so crazy about Tresor. Frankly, I think it stinks and smells like an old lady. I keep on smelling it from time to time, trying to see if the smell would change, but sadly, it still smells the same, though less gagging. Maybe I'll try this again when I'm more mature.

My mother gave it to me a few weeks ago as a gift. It's my first lancome perfume and I love it! It suits me like magic. Kudos to Tresor by Lancome. ;)

I don't often use the word "loathe" in conjunction with perfume, but I might use it to describe Tresor if you caught me on a bad day. It's just too strong for me, and gives me headaches (even when worn by others). It's the olfactory equivalent of being punched in the jaw for me, I'm afraid.

This perfume has always intrigued me, right down to the heavy glass bottle. Its a romantic scent, a scent I would wear on my wedding day to my future husband. Its a powdery, peachy rose oriental that is timeless. Its all woman. Its a woman who is nurturing to herself as well as to others. A sensitive and self actualized woman who knows who she is.

This is by far my most favorite perfume ever created. Scents on my vanity table change on a monthly basis but this perfume is my staple. Ive held off writing a review of this scent as I do not have the vocabulary or the expression to justify this scent.

I could describe the perfume in notes - but to me - there is no distinctive note that could describe the perfume well. It grows and evolves on the skin. Initially you smell a blast of just ripened peaches and then it evolves into a softer powdery note that lasts on me well over 9 hours - I could still smell the lingering scent the morning after. On clothes, the scent lasts longer, my scarf still has the tresor scent.

Tresor to me - smells exactly like new cosmetics - like new lipsticks and blushes when applied to the face for the first time - dainty, feminine and laced with seductiveness.

Its a very familiar scent that cant be described but its also unique - it does not smell like anything Ive ever tried before.

The projection is killer and the sillage (perfume trail) is something that Tresor excels at. Its strong scent but projects softness and naivety. I dont think I will ever get bored with this scent :)

I first smelled Tresor over two years ago, when I was disgusted by its sour heaviness. Older, wiser and learned in the ways of fragrance, I dabbed the same tester on my wrist for another go. I now understand better what I hate about the opening.

The “sour apricot” I picked up the first time has a mentholated edge which, instead of smelling fresh and interesting, smells camphorous and, in conjunction with the fruit, like old-fashioned Ny Quil; the knock-you-out-in-20-minutes-or-less formula.

The heart of the fragrance is better. The peachy although slightly chemical rose takes over and directs the fragrances development over the sandalwood-heavy vanillic base. Tresor is a sweet sandalwood fruit tart. Syrupy, rich and pretty from a distance – cloying and medicinal up close, the love and the hate for Tresor is all justified.

*Note: this review utilizes a miniature from the late nineties, since it may matter.

^^^ that said, I take it back. >_< It's very possible that my original reviews were utilizing fakes. (Mom got them in the Caribbean) My new bottle smells so different, I can't believe it; Syrupy powdery, peachy rosy loveliness and NO menthol... It's very elegant and long lasting. Wonderful!

I wore Tresor when I was in my late 20's, and haven't wore since then.

I have been on a search for the past few months for my signature scent, when I happened on Tresor again.

I read all the reviews here, and was hesitant to try it again. I'd read that the fragrance had been changed, it wasn't the same etc.

I tried it in the store, but there were several versions available and the store always puts those security tags right across the bottom so you can't be certain which version you picked up. On that test, whatever version I sprayed, I immediately didn't care for.

But, knowing I couldn't be sure which one I'd tried, I decided to purchase a small bottle of the lotion and a pulse point roll on.

I'm wearing the lotion with the pulse point over it today. And I was so happy to find that it smells just like I remember it.

It's a slightly spicy, powdery floral with a hint of vanilla and just a tease of fruit. I can't decide if its apricot or peach. I think it's the musk and the amber that make it smell softly powdery. It's a soft romantic scent, and the musk adds a subtle sensuous suggestion.

Ladies, if you were in love with Tresor of old and find it doesn't smell the same, try the lotion. I put on the lotion layered with the pulse point roll on perfume at 7:15 this morning, and 3 hours later it's still fragrant.

Sillage is moderate, and longevity is excellent. I'm so glad I decided to give this classic another try. I remember now why I loved it so much.

I have a 5ml in a coffret with other Lancome minis and don't use it nearly enough! It's actually very nice, peachy and powdery but not cloying at all. It smells mature and feminine and would be a good choice for days when you can't decide what to wear fragrance-wise. Not too strong- seems to have medium sillage and good staying power on my skin.

Sorry, I don't usually do this but just couldn't let this one go by....
Ms/Mr Guest Vanillabean:
Where do you think perfumes are made if not in a lab?
Do you think the perfumers sit out in a field and capture scented air and rain in a bottle?
Cheez.....

TRESOR WAS MY FIRST PERFUME ABOUT MANY YEARS AGO...IT IS ROMANTIC,CLASSIC AND SWEET.NOW I CAN WEAR ONLY IN COLD DAYS.HOWEVER IT IS ELEGANT AND RAFINED PERFUME.MY HUSBAND SAID :IT IS BORRING!AND I CAN'T WEAR NOW...WHAT A PITTY...

I brought Tresor when it was first launched in the 1990's. It was a beautiful fragrance and it became my favorite. Many years later, I noticed that it started to smell different. So I have been hoping these "new" variations will smell like the Tresor of old. I see the same thing has happened to J'adore by Christian Dior. Reading all these comments here, I think it's pretty much over. That lightly sweet, powdery and magical smelling Tresor will never be back. :(

my first perfume. i wear it when i was 12. quite expensive for me at that time but i just love this scent! good memories in bottle

God, I think Tresor is one of the worst scents ever. I hated the scent when I was a teenager and I still hate it. Rose and apricot? Where would anyone get that idea? It smells like a cheap drugstore perfume. I can't detect any particular notes because it seems so artificial--like it was created in a lab.

Tresor is a nice fragrance but it seems to get too strong on some people. It has a kick to it so you have to be careful. I knew one woman who couldn't stand it when she had PMS but loved it any other time. When it is over four hours old on my skin it smells lovely. I was told that I smelled like clean laundry once. I notice the faint rose scent myself. The trouble is that I have to wait until the afternoon for it to smell good on me ! The lighter versions of it are nice if you can find them. The regular EDP is too thick and sweet when first applied for myself.
It has nothing to do with your age but Tresor just doesn't smell good on some people , let's just leave it at that !

This has been my perfume for the last few years. Everyone seems to love it on me and other girls ask me what I'm wearing. It's sweet, romantic, very classy and somehow sexy, too. However, I think I keep wearing it just because I haven't found mine yet.

love it.!its sophisticated,feminine,peachy.flowery.woody.a bit sweet.a bit vanillic.different.majestic rose too.lancôme make great feminine fragrance!for those who are feminine and different!i suggest lancôme to make u happy* i must add that i love this one to go to sleep!it's calming,peachy,flowery,sweet,sexy,sensual...love it!one of my favorites!

I just came to know about this one from a friend of mine so have added it in my want list. She used to wear it in her teens but now she says she wouldn't like to wear it anymore, in fact it surprises her that she used to wear it. But as I can see the nose behind this fragrance is Sophia Grojsman can't give it a miss.

I know this is one big Classic...
So very strong, thick , heavy, sweet, peachie , a bit dirty- stale and very powdery...suffocating almost !

I really don't like it !...I can't stand it !

.... must be the pinneaple , the peach and the apricot mixed with other notes that makes it an love or hate fragrance !

....There is something very depressing about this scent ;(;(;(

It has that "old " dusty style ! very oldfashion !
Not for me !

Peach is a queen here with apricot being a little princess :-) I do not get much flowers or spices here, to me the fragrance is more of a fruity nature (but not a teenage-girl fruity one). There is hardly any oriental feel about it, take my word for that!
I cannot detect any flowers on their own, I can only say that the fragrance is a creamy peach shawl with a bit of sheer vanilla, (which is not aggressive or too dominant), the one that will keep you cosy and comfortable all day long :-)
The lasting power is above average, as is the sillage.
When I wore Tresor for the first time, the smell appeared familiar. It was Oriflame's attempt to copy Tresor by creating a perfume called 'Volare' - the cheap substitute of Tresor for less wealthy ladies.
Being quite open minded about perfumes, I will say try it regardless of your olfactive group preference.
I am sure you'll appreciate that little treasure :-)

A superb eight hour perfume!!!! When I go to bed and wake up eight hours later and still smell the scent, it then passes my eight hour test of distance. This passed with flying colors! Very nice apricot scent. It smells a little like Realities by Liz Claiborn but not identical.

i love this scent the lilac its amazing and the apricot come through the most on my skin i wear it every day !!!!!!

God Tresor stinks. My best friend wears it and I can't understand why. I hated it when I was 10-years-old and I still hate it two decades later. To me it will always smell like some cheap junk you could buy at a drugstore.

It amazes me how different perfumes are on different people - some of you are saying here that it is too strong, I sparay 3 sprays on myself and can't smell it at all after 10mins! Is that a good sign?? I love this fragrance, it smells unqique and fresh and makes a good casual every-day scent.

beauthiful amazing fragrance but not for teenaige its for women vhen i vas in a H school i lovet but it vas a lite stronger to mi then but,now its time to buy i have 30 years and its vorking and i gate a lots off compliment even today vhen i tried in a stoor greate

I'm a huge fan of tresor! whenever I wear it I receive a lot of compliments and I havent met a single man who doesnt like the smell of it! it's so charming and seductive that I almost instantly feel myself as a goddess. it's perfect to wear for all seasons except summer and I'm gonna but tresor in love to wear in summer, they're not the same but I like the smell of tresor in love as well. also I'm 23 and I think every women can wear it at every age!

I realise this is going to be wildly unpopular.... but good grief... The peach and apricot in this seem to have grown thorns, they are sharp, unrefined and to my nose headache inducing. I thoroughly appreciate the musk and amber in the base, these are readily identifiable to me and are very welcome notes, but they do not allay the indolent head of the peach & apricot. I get the warm cozy feeling and ordinarily the notes should work for me, perhaps its the formulation, but I have had this twice now, and twice given it away. I wont try a 3rd time :(


EDIT: Ok, I must be out of my mind... I just cannot leave this one be, because on many levels I actually like it. I have obtained it again and will try again. I am starting to think that this is going to be one of those perfumes that I don't love, but don't hate either. A lighter hand on a cold day might do the trick ;) We'll see...LOL!

Tresor takes off with a delicious peach followed by an intriguing combination of rough iris root (like the one in Chanel No 19 pure perfume) and fresh roses.

The irisroot seems to erase the sharp edges that any rose may have and is also adding some oomph to this beauty by making it damp, almost wet and even cloudy when the top merges into the heart. Amazing...

After a while the rooty powder leaves the scene and the rose bursts out in its full complexion and loveliness. But instead of wet orris; soft musk, vanilla and silky powdery sandalwood is is now supporting the rose, making it dryer and even more sensual.

Tresor has an almost perfect longevity, sillage and bone structur. Simply adorable. Another must have creation by Grojsman.

Very rich, slightly vintage, complex and elegant scent. Respected classic. Must have for me one day.

This sat on my mothers dressing tabe for years in a box! I think she hated it and didn't know how to tell my Dad! She finally gave it away and I was traumatised because I used to steal a dab before school!

I may need to sample this again.....

One of my all time favorites. Very well done. Enough said.

This is the perfect perfume for autumn with its ripe fruit notes mixed with voluminous florals. For springtime and early summer I recommend the recently released modern version 'Tresor in Love' which contains light creamy fruit notes on top and a rose-based heart - delicious!

I agree that it is a nice smell but I'm sorry it is way too strong for me. If I were it my self, after one hour I have a headache, but when someone else where's it I still like it.

I love this! My mom used to wear it a lot when I was very young (5ish years old) and every time I smell it I get a flood of memories! I don't know if I could ever wear it because it reminds me of her but it is a very nice one.

Yes, this one is a true classic. Just like the Aviators. It does not matter how old the scent or desing is and who in the history has worn it, because I will wear it all over again. One of its kind.

I have always wanted to test this perfume but at the first sniff, OMG, it's too overwhelming, and even the dry-down is strongly powdery, which seems to lack some... grace I have to say. Maybe all the classic perfumes are not my cup of tea. Sorry to all the Tresor fans.

I really hoped I'd like this. Unfortunately, Tresor, which smells divine on a good friend, is overpowering and gives me headaches. It hits me HARD and overwhelms my senses. Sorry, takemyhusband...it smells nothing like Champs Elysees, which I DO wear often. CE is lilting and soothing, but I had to give my Tresor to the same friend on whom I'd admired it.

this one is really great, it's my mom favourite scent, her signature smell :D she loves it! and it gives me pretty good memories

I received a bottle of Tresor from a new "friend" when this first came out in Europe. He had never bought a scent for anyone before and I had never accepted one before testing *alot*! Despite my hesitation, it became my signature scent. It drove him crazy. All my air mail notes were scented with Tresor.
Our relationship is still long distance; but, I always look for that duty free bag of European Tresor when he visits his "Princess". (It still smells better than US distributed Tresor!)

See 12/21/08 post. My mother lives out of state. I just came back from a visit for Passover/Easter/Spring Break 2010. The one item I continually look for in her house is the "Bath Powder" I gave her for Christmas in 2008. I don't think she ever got to use it :( I truely believe a family member saw it and immediately took it for themselves. Everyone in our large family loves Tresor! What to do, lol?

Isn’t this a caring mother in a bottle? Ok it’s not for you if you want to be unique. It must be one of the best selling perfumes ever. It is lovely and gentle like summer wind on soft skin. It’s got “Love me I’m a good girl!” written all over it. It’s so comforting, motherly, romantic, powdery, honest it nearly hurts.

There is perfume better than this?

Yes, only 1: Gió, Giorgio Armani, only.

Tresór is a wonderful, sweet, classy, intense, elegant, awesome.

Every time I smell it I stay marvel. How can someone have invented fragrance so happy?
I'm in love with him and definitely not a perfume for older women but for women elegant and very feminine

This perfume has always confused me. its sweet but woody and i can't decide whether it's light or heavy! i've worn it for almost 5 years now and i've never smelt it on anyone else. it's a classic scent but definately an aquired scent!

As I am a fan of Lancome, I bought a small bottle of this to try. As it had vanilla as one of the notes, I thought it would be O.K, but wasn't impressed at all. It comes across very sweet and cloying. I love a good staying fragrance, but this was headache material!! Have had much better Lancome perfumes, wouldn't buy it again!

I was planning to review Gabriele Strehle STRENESSE today, but it wasn't in the database. I liked it, and it reminded me vaguely of an old friend, Lancôme TRESOR, with which I have a long-term relationship. When I dabbed on the perfume for the first time in years, a flood of memories filled my mind, back from the time when Isabella Rossellini's image was ubiquitous.

I approached TRESOR with some trepidation today, not wanting to disrupt all of my past fond feelings for this fragrance. But my worries were for naught, for I still, after all these years, love the sweet rose, peach, and vanilla concoction that TRESOR is to me.

TRESOR, like it or not, was a trendsetter, perhaps the perfume that set off the explosion of sweet scents that have become so prevalent over the course of the past twenty years. TRESOR is an oriental floral in the sweetest sense of those words, for its vanilla infuses a slurry of pineapple and apricot--in addition to a double dose of peach--in which abundant rose petals float along with a few other diverse floral garnishes.

TRESOR is oh-so-sweet, yet oh-so-loveable, a guilty pleasure hidden away in a cookie jar to eat when no one else is around... TRESOR may have been my first comfort scent, and for that reason I hold it in esteem, despite my belief that its allures are somehow superficial. But I still cannot deny, no matter how hard I try, that I love the way this smells!

I remember I wore this perfume when I was in college. And all my friends commented," Why do you smell like an old-lady?". Hahahaha I dunno but I think I'll make a repurchase of this one. Despite of all the negative comments, I feel comfortable and feminine when I'm wearing it.

My mummy uses the often this scent.She is a delicate person and blonde. These were first good scent which I felt at home and I interested myself as the teenager . My mother adore it , and I adore my mummy. :)

Fermented fruit!This perfume smells just like a fruit liqueur I made for Christmas gifts.It was dried pineapple, mango, apricots, sugar and vodka.I bought a gift set from ebay unsniffed, because I like a lot of the notes that were listed in this perfume, especially pineapple, bergamont,vanilla, amber, and lovely lovely jasmine.I can't pick out any one note in Tresor except overwhelming apricot/peach.There is no beginning, middle,or end. It stays the same all the way through.A disappointing usage of my fundage.This is the first perfume that has ever given me a headache too.If anyone wants to buy/trade PLZ contact me.

This stank on me of overripe fruit, the pineapple and apricot notes too distinct. I do like a fruity note ie; I love Femme but this isn't dark enough for me, it's more like apricot jam. I've come to the conclusion that I'm not a Sophia Grojsman fan. I also find the bottle rather clunky and weird.
Tried this one again the other day and found it comforting...maybe it's a winter thing!!

I Think this has to be the most beautiful Bottle next to Chanel no 5
I Just love the coloring. it reminds you of the sun setting driving though
the Fashionable Parisian district of
Champs Elysees. Very Elegant.

The first notes is very sweet Apricot Blossom Peach.

and it dries down to Vanilla Amber And the last Sandalwood.

As much as i love the Bottle this is not one of my favorites because i not a
fan of Vanilla. but i will give this a

4

I got this tresor because a friend of mine who works as a stewardess recommended me. She told me that this is very excellent and divine.

So, I got it and it didn't work for me.

I don't like it at all. I gave away to other after few times trial.

For me, it just failed. It's gave me a headache, too heavy not suiting my age.

I'm sorry, but I can't even smell any roses notes. I don't think this tresor consider flowery. It's too much... maybe too much alcohol in it.

However, Tresor does has, long staying power. This is the quality that one might like.

Honestly, I wont buy Tresor again...

And don't even think to give Tresor as a gift to me... I won't be that eager... :(

sorry dear friends...

Someone mentioned the vulgar adds. I have to agree that most of the women rolling around in a bed or the flashy MTV-like adds where you can't even focus on the subject and have hard music makes me think the girl would grab the man in a dominant manner! Tresor with Kate Winslet was so soft and pretty and tender, I definitely want to try it now. I want to smell pretty, not like a female wrestler. The Tresor add accomplishes this!

Another Grosjman not understood by everyone. I used to dislike it, very much...but now I love it! It grew on me. Now I find it a real treasure. Will not be saying that for Spellbound however!!

I love strong florals, even the headache-inducing, overpoweringly heavy ones. I assumed that I would enjoy this classic fragrance, however this was not so.

When I first sprayed Tresor I had to smell my wrist a couple of times in order to clarify that it was perfume that I was actually smelling. It smelt like decay to me. Rotting fruit, wet sand, stale sweat and mothballs. I will add however that this was from an EDT tester bottle, so the EDP may be a lot nicer. This review may also be on one of the Tresor versions, so please correct me if I am wrong.

Needless to say, I was shocked by what I encountered. A tinge of sweetness later on only made this fragrance more nauseating. Something tells me that this has to be a different perfume, perhaps even an off bottle. I cannot understand why anyone would want to wear it.

In conclusion, thankfully, it's lasting power was very poor.

I was 100% sure before smelling Tresor, that I would hate it.I was expecting to smell this Chanel 5-type of old-smelling, extremely heavy perfume, but my gosh was I pleasantly surprised when I got this lovely non-overbearing flowery, dreamy scent. :)

This is a beautiful masterpiece of a fragrance that definitely has to work with a persons chemistry. As for those who say you have to be this hair color/skin temp or that I think that is silly.. but, well here goes:
I am a natural redhead/more on the strawberry blonde side as I have hit my 20's, I have a low skin temperature, and I live in a hot climate. For some reason this is nice and warm on me. I do not wear it in an overpoweringly manner and a little goes a long way. I can wear incredibly heavy perfumes and get away with them, many people have told me this - so I am not imagining it, hahaha... It is all in how you apply and how well you wear them. & this one is gold. I need to get more of this one.. I adore orientals, they are my favorite next to aldehydes.

Tresor was an acquired fragrance for me = I initially despised its pungent smell but gradually understood why Tresor is famous for what it is.

Heavy florals with underlying dark spicy basenotes.

I don't see myself ever liking this,but I hope Tresor will have my grudging respect in the years to come.

Tresor bu Lancome deserves to have another name definitely! It is far away from some treasure, i can call it Horror or Migraine or Chemical Weapon etc. and i am trying to be polite here. It happened to me once that it really made me vomit and after that i am literally scared to death of this (so called) perfume.

It doesn't work with my chemistry but I think it smells great on other people. My husband took a whiff of it and thought it smelled like "a little old lady".

love vanilla base note, reminds me of Poeme a bit.

This to me is what Lancome stands for-heady and strong scents! This is a crisp green scent with Apricot mixed in. A truly beautiful scent! Used to be one of my favorites back in the early 90's. Magie Noir was too!

Old good Tresor! how I loved this back in time! It is a very romantic but not frilly scent. I used to wear it when I was about 20. Rose is the core, then apricot notes and woodsy soft notes in the drydown make it a glorious, warm, all woman, sweet and late spring perfume. It is actually a powdery rose, but in a total different way for that age. It smelled very new. I still remember the lady in a perfume store in Germany telling me: "Ja, ja, das ist ganz neu!" Well, it doesn't mean that only new perfumes are nice! Of course, it's no like so, but I really like when a new release is so meaningful that can be representative of a decade. I loved the elegant, sensual and romantic ads with Isabella Rossellini, so different from many vulgar ads today who push so hard on sexual stereotypes.
You need to spray only 2 squirt, not bathing in it! I always liked this kind of perfumes that you need to wear with sense, beautiful romantic bombs, half way between florals and orientals, a beautiful invention! I totally agree with previous reviewer.
Many ladies wore this back in time and it became kind of overused and abused. It smells a little dirty on some skin chemistries.
I grew tired and bored of it in time, but I 've worn it recently from a tester and felt in heaven! I'm thinking about buying a small bottle again.

Tresor has probably paved my path to orientals. I remember the very first experience of it clearly. The fragrance had not arrived to my hometown yet - but I was on vacation and tested it on on a duty free shop.

I fell head over heels for it - I never experienced anything like it. Every single note was pure enjoyment and it agreed beautifully with my skin chemistry - although florals tend to be difficult to me. I got my first bottle instantly and wore it for years, on my early twenties.

If you get the feel that Tresor is heavy I suggest purchasing a touch bottle instead of spray. EDP has amazing staying power and presence, just a light touch to pulse points was enough for me.

I note that there are some reviews that suggest it to be a spring perfume - agreed. The mood of Tresor is perfect for the time of year when the nature starts to wake up around you - but the weather is still quite cool.

On my skin Tresor is fruity rose with beautifully blended oriental base of softest, warmest amber, very rounded wood and vanilla. It might be the iris that brings a hint of powderiness and old school charm to it. For me it has always been a small wonder how well the fresh peach accord lasts in this scent, the fruit notes tend to be relatively short lived in many perfumes.

I would also describe it relatively ageless scent. The long lasting fruitiness and sparkling floral notes exude youthfulness, the complex blend and light powderiness carry some history and tradition. I also agree that it's strong presence needs some confidence from the wearer - but it is not all over your face if you don't overdose it.

Tresor is very recognizable but still very reactive to skin chemistry. And the downside is the popularity.

Haven't worn it in years, but I think that I might be ready for a small touch bottle for special occasions - and next spring.

This is the only fragrance from Lancome I actually enjoy.

OOh I do love this..

It smells like a powdery fruity floral, not as spicy as I thought by looking at the perfume content!

I think this perfume for mature women,not for young and romantic girl.
Not for every day,only for special occasion.
Smells too stong on me.

Many of the members who've already reviewed this scent have written very romantic descriptions, which to me, are very fitting. Tresor is a very romantic perfume that expresses a femininity that is derived from strength, spirit, emotions, and happiness. To me, Tresor smells like falling in love - everything is in bloom, everything feels light and full of wonder.

It's true that Tresor is a very strong scent, but it's not strong in the way that so many classic, aldehydic florals (like Beautiful, and Chanel No.5) tend to be. Tresor is a wonderful, powdered rose, that is kept in check by a generous dose of peach and apricot, which keep things light and fun, and it's also weighted by a layer of amber that's been woven with vetiver.

Though this is a perfume that some may consider to be old-fashioned or matronly, I think this is because it's been around for awhile, so a younger generation associates it with their elders who've worn it in the past, or have remained loyal to the scent and wear it to this day. It is one of the only classics I can tolerate, and to me, it doesn't feel old at all. Though the main component of Tresor is a rose accord, I wore this in high school and I never recognized the rose for what it was; it's beautifully blended with the amber, fruits, and powder, and leaves a lovely, light sillage that never feels dominating or "old woman-ish."

I think this perfume really was a gateway scent, which paved the way for other sweet, powdery florals that my younger generation and myself adore, like Flowerbomb and Alien.

I don't currently own a bottle of this, though I've owned bottles in the past but everytime I come back to it, I'm swept off my feet. In small doses, Tresor can be a great scent to wear if you want to add a romantic aspect to a night out (or in).

I work in a nursing home and have had the opportunity to take care of some wonderful, smart, and courageous ladies. Some of these ladies fought in World War II. For some reason when I wear this perfume, I feel like they become a part of me (these women). Now don't get me wrong, I love being a guy. For some reason one day I was curious and bought a tiny bottle of Tresor. Just the way it looked caught my attention. The rich amber-colored bottle: it was elegant and beautiful. There are not many times in a single man's life that he can experience something beautiful and elegant such as this. When I got home I sprayed it lightly onto my wrist and immediately I was transported to another time. A time when men were off to war and women were left behind to take care of this country. However, this fragrance somehow gave me a feeling that a woman who wore this would not have stayed behind. She would have joined the military and fought alongside her man. It is majestic and soft, confident and gentle. Some may believe it to be 'repulsive' or 'cloying'. I believe this fragrance is what it is: a treasure. Even for me, a single guy, I appreciate the beauty that is Tresor. It gives me courage when I wear it, and I'm not afraid to say I'm glad I tried this one.

This fragrance is a classic. I remember wearing this in college on a cold winter day walking to class. I did not like it than, as it was and is an extremely mature fragrance not for the faint at heart.
On my chemistry, it is STRONG. Really, a little bit goes the whole day, a long way for me. This fragrance reminds me of my mother, and its matronly, yet it is also pretty.

The complexities of the many layers of fragrance add to the "power" this fragrance packs.
For example, the peach, heliotrope, iris, along with the vanilla, sandalwood and amber is enough aroma to last years!
For my chemistry, the peach and heliotrope grandstand all of the other subtle nuances throughout.
Only to end with a shout of amber and vanilla. Sweet and strong

When used sparingly, and in COLD weather, this fragrance could prove to be extremely classy.

Give it a try!

I read so many good reviews of this perfume so I bought some. I really wanted to like it, but I was overwhelmed by the smell of rotting fruit. I'll try it again sometime, as I have found that my tastes seem to change. But this will probably not be anytime soon.

Heavily reminds me of old ladies on a tobacco smoking marathon.
It's not exactly unpleasant, but there's a particular note I cant make out that makes it a little off-putting.
I wont be wearing this till Im 90.

Ummmmmhhhhhh Tresor :))) I felt in love with it the first time I smelled it. It was 1990 I guess... I tried it and visited my ex-husband's office. I remember the effect it made on him :)))) It helped me several times to smoother men throughout my life-cycle :)))

Well,
1 - I love roses;
2 - I'm not blonde;
3 - My skin temperature is high;
4 - I live in a country with a warm and humid climate;
5 - I tested Trèsor EDP today and it works pretty good on my skin. It's majestic! I got compliments!

BINGO!

EDIT:
IMHO, I don't think it's a perfume made for a specific kind of woman and/or the country she lives. That's not the point. The key is not to exaggerate the dose.
With a little sense of taste and style, Trèsor can be classy no matter where you are!

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.

This is my grandma's favorite perfume. I think it's classy and elegant but old fashioned and a bit too sweet for me.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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!

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 )

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....

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.

I like the smell, but on my skin, it turns into a smell very much alike dead rotten bugs. :( Can't wear it :(

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.

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.

As Joseph Welch said to Senator McCarthy: 'You have done enough. Have you no sense of decency. . . at long last?'

Unbearable.

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.

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

I bought this a few years ago, it's a classy musk, nice daytime fragrance.

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!

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.

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...

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.

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.

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.

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!

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...

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.

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.

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...

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.

My favorite perfume, it can transported me to a better place, evey time I wear it.

sharp and too sweet at the first,but then you might find it so romantic.

On me it smells very sweet almonds. Too sweet I think. It would make a nice body lotion though! :)

it's a attractive scent , i get many compliments when im wearing it ..

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.

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.

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.

i like this... very senzual and so elegant. perfect for a romantic dinner

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.

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.

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.

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.

i love this scent it reminds me of my mother. who pasted away

It's flowery, romantic, perfect for dream girls. Elegant, very 'french', seductive, classic.

I have tried to like this -- over and over, again. And my conclusion is the same, time and time again -- it's repulsive.
