middle notes
base notes
Romance is a scent of romantic love and intimate moments full of joy and happiness, with an endlessly positive aura. At the beginning of the composition the notes of rose blend with citrusy oils and receive an unusual, unique melody. The pellucid flower of water lily, lily and romantic white violet give this perfume its silent grace and the spicy notes of carnation and ginger refresh. Patchouli, oakmoss and white musk finish the composition gently. The perfume was created by Harry Fremont in 1998.
Fragrance Notes

Feminine, Sultry and Sexy. The patchouli, white musk and oak moss in the base notes are a nice mix up with the lily/lotus middle notes and the citrus top notes. It's fresh, warm, delicate and beautiful. It reminds me of Lancome's Miracle", which I love so much. Its opening is super floral and it dries down to an enormous bouquet of flowers. I'm usually into fruity sweet or musky sweet scents, but this floral fragrance makes for a nice change-up. Romance is definitely a scent of romantic love and intimate moments full of joy and happiness. Ralph Lauren's "ROMANCE" is romantic and can be worn everyday, but ideal for the spring.

I love Ralf Lauren's parfumes,that's one is so light gently romantic fragrance.

This is a very romantic scent indeed! To me it's young and sweet romance, nothing heavy about it. I fully agree with the reviewer who compared this scent to Perry Ellis, it has some similar qualities. I do feel that this scent has much more depth than Perry Ellis though. I smell the rose and lemon together in the top note which reminds me a bit of a lighter and more grown up version of Gucci Envy Me. This scent seems like it would be perfect for either day or night, and I really love the classic bottle. The only fault in this is that it doesn't last more than an hour on the skin. Maybe longer in the hair, you'll have to give it a try :)

Simply the best for evening wear, its light and airy but dont lasts long, bottle is simple and look nice.

it's very odd,both in the notes and smelling.to me this one smells very similar to Ines de la Fressange at the first sniff,both are a bit sour and I smell something like plum here,with a little hint of spiciness.
it's cool,because it's not like a typical floral fruity scent.ginger comes to my nose just after 5 minutes of spraying it.it's not very spicy,but more likely aromatic.
it's not very feminine and personally I didn't find the name "romance" suitable for this one,but it's naughty.it means it doesn't insist in being innocent,it's just about a girl who wants to live her life.instead it's very energetic.
I can smell this kind of sourness even in the base notes,but in fact I like this kind of smelling very much.

I wore this perfume throughout high school after stealing it from my mother, I don't find this masculine on me, it is floral with rose and lily so sweet and feminine. I love to wear this during summer at night.

this fragrance smells a lot like Perry Ellis reserve if you like romance and you want to smell like it just buy Perry Ellis it's more cheaper

got a sample of this and polo blue... sound kinda weird but smells so good when both fragrance are sprayed on together...

This is my all time favourite perfume.I always get back to this perfume :D Very classic perfume, but smells fashionable.
If I have to use two words to describe it, it will be "ROMANTIC" and "LOVELY".Feeling loved whenever I use this perfume and I get all the compliments.It has become a signature of mine among my friends.Very long lasting as well, ard 8+ hours.

very pleasant, feminine, light and wearable for work.I like it alot
02/11/09 14:12:59
For an eau de parfum this doesn't last that long on me. It's a very light unoffensive floral. Not bad but nothing special either.
02/03/09 18:38:22
I grew tired of this one fast. I still have a full bottle after 5yrs of owning it. Its feminine, soft and romantic but the musky soapy smell got on my nerves. It smells like Oil of Olay bar soap.
01/13/09 09:55:13
romance is a perfect name for this perfume!
It was love at first sniff
when i first came across this beautiful fragrance.It has great lasting power!

very light and floral. draws me in from 50 feet away although that could be purely psychological association.
12/04/08 12:30:03
first of all it's all spicy,even so masculine,then it softens and the flower scents come(particulary lily and rose).at this time it reminds me of floral woody musk scents and then there are citruses fresh notes.it's not very feminine,although I can't call it unisex neither.as I said it's more likely like woody musk perfumes,not floral fruity.
12/03/08 10:17:36
Fresh and clean! Reminds me of high-school :)
11/29/08 19:17:54
Its a very overwhelming scent. Like a citrus-spicy cup of infusion of something not very clear, very charged. Disappointing. Sour. Nothing else special to comment about it.
11/09/08 19:46:31
Nice, but not my taste. Too powdery, or floral, or light, or something...
11/07/08 05:13:10
My favorite perfume. I have a few but I always come back to this one. It makes me feel sexy and fantastic. It's not an overly sexy fragrance. I found it in a magazine and liked it straight away. I have been told I smell divine when wearing it (good enough for me)
10/29/08 12:53:00
It's a punch of florals and citrus which I love. It also lasts a long time. I have a mini bottle of it but I don't think I'll purchase a bigger one, it's just a little to strong for me almost a little masculine. Of course I'll give it a warm welcome if I get this as a gift:)
10/24/08 07:06:18
light and nice, but ife is too short to waste time for usual perfumes:)
10/18/08 08:18:51
This is a nice rose perfum with lovely woodsy notes, very longlasting om me. I don't wear it everday, but when I do I'm suprised how good it is!
10/18/08 08:00:46
I find this perfume to be clean and fresh...it doesn't have any discernable bass notes on my skin, however. It really doesn't last long either; I just sprayed this perfume on no more than two hours ago and I can no longer smell it.
I am always reluctant to say that I don't like a fragrance because I can appreciate the smell of nearly every perfume even if I don't enjoy it on my skin. I like the smell of Romance on a paper strip. It has a fruity clean opening with something that is reminiscent of a masculine cologne. But for me, wearing it just doesn't work. It is underwhelming and with so many great perfumes out there, there isn't enough going on with Romance to keep it interesting.

LOVELY PERFUME.SMELLS JUST LIKE THE BODY SHOP PERFUME, BUT I CAN'T REMEMBER THE NAME? IT HAD A PETAL THING ON IT, PINK AND WHITE BOTTLE. I DO THINK IT CAN GO OFF THOUGH. I AGREE WITH ALTHEA I WAS GIVEN A BOTTLE THAT WAS LEFT OVER, IT SMELT BAD.
BUT IT IS LOVELY WHEN NEW. VERY FEMIMINE.

Romance is very good name for this one. I think young and romantic girls will like it. It’s beautiful and clear fragrance. Fresh, warm and precious - like first love, like romance.
I was surprised there’s no lily of the valley, I could clearly smell it.

too floral for my taste but yet a fresh feminine fragrance..
10/06/08 06:21:00
Yes, not so feminine as I expected - it's rather sharp & clean... Like a cool romance with severe feelings when you don't wanna loose your own head & heart - just to seduce the victim ;)
10/06/08 04:40:24
I remember smelling this a couple of years ago and really liked it, but there are so many fragrances that I completely forgot about it. The other day in Sephora I came across it and the memory of light and warm scent came up to my head.. but.. I dont know whether the tester was "old" or what, it smelled different, definitely masculine and very spicy.. well maybe my chemistry changed, but I was very dissapointed. I need to give it another try one day.
10/02/08 07:00:55
Classic, fresh, delicate, floral smell. I don't rage behind it, but men yes.Perhaps, such easy, simple, feminine, usual perfume communicate man: "see, I'am fragile, I'am usual, so, you don't must afraid of me" ;)
10/01/08 08:19:53
it wasnt really anything special for me. didnt last long and i really only got it cus the collectors bottle came with a charm
10/01/08 07:10:07
Qué buen perfume, es una gran fragancia invernal.
09/27/08 09:58:39
IT'S A VERY SWEET FRAGRANCE WITH LIGHT NOTES.I LIKE IT WEARING IT USUALLY IN THE MORNING.
09/26/08 03:18:30
Romance is a classic for me. It is so pretty and clean. Whenever I want to smell clean, but also very warm I reach for Romance.
08/28/08 18:15:16
I love this fragrance. It is light and airy, and not too overwhelming for everyday use.
08/27/08 13:58:40
I received this as a gift from my husband. I find it to be a middle-note fragrance; nothing particularly outstanding about it. However, my son impliments me each time I wear it. It is a light, non-pervasive perfume that is perfect for office or day wear.
