Reb'l Fleur Rihanna for women

Just bought this and oh me oh my tropical paradise. Smells tropical mixed with fruit and florals. To me this works really well and smells very good. I would definitively give this one a try. I can see myself wearing this a lot. AND I love the bottle too. Its different. Overall the scent is very pleasant and lasts long too.

Just Bought this one Today :):)
So Sweet...So AWESOME!!!
Enough Said :)

A very sweet perfume, lots of berries vanilla musk a hint of coconut. It smells absolutely yummy dont get me wrong! But it is not unique at all it smells like something I have smelled before, musky typical drydown for most celeb frags these days...nothing really WHOOSH in your face, thankfully its not a POW in your face, more like a WHOOP in your face, in between good and bad. It doesnt tantalize the senses, but it is an over all good every day pick me up.

Extremely impressed and in love with this fragrance,smells absolutely fantastic,lasts for hours on end,always receive compliments,mature,captivating,delightful fragrance! A must have,worth every penny.

Ahhh I just did a blind buy of this and waiting for it to come in...I hope it will smell nice on myself..I will let you all know!!

Horrible..Just plain horrible.. All I smell is chemicals..way strong chemicals.. An instant head ache inducer.

This smells very much like Gucci Flora! I actually might like it better, believe it or not.. I find Gucci Flora.. to be even sweeter than this one .. feels a bit yummy, but for me, I'm kind of needing a break from sweets.. literally and figuratively..lol

Very yummy tho... and not in a britney spears way.. but slightly classier

Just tested this yesterday and I'm very surprised but I really like it and will purchase a bottle soon :)

I really liked this scent and will purchase a bottle of it!!

The scent was not exactly what I expected, but it smells REALLY good. It's a mature scent for a mature woman, so if you are into the whole sweet "body spray" scent I would suggest that you try another perfume. The sillage and lasting power depends on the person. It lasts on my mother and I can still smell it but not as much (almost 3 hours later). It's definitely a scent I could see myself wearing to church or to class- maybe even everyday. Although it shocked me, I would defnitely give it a 8/10, and I'd buy it again.

Both my sister and best friend have this scent and they love it. Personally i've never tried it on my skin, so therefore my opinion is from smelling it on my sister and friend.

At first spray, you can definitely detect the amber and sweet vanilla. At first i thought hey..this kinda smells like a SWEET version to Victoria's Secret "Amber Romance" - a personal fave.

As the day went on i could definitely still smell it on my sister (big plus in terms of lasting power). When i asked to smell her wrist, i could detect the coconut which was nice because it wasn't too over powering.

Overall:

Lasting power - about 6-8 hours (pretty good)

Sillage - 5 hours or so

It's a very nice sensual scent, the lasting power and sillage are quite impressive. HOWEVER, it is not a very unusual perfume and i personally find the bottle to be tacky and HEAVY. I say if you want something that smells SIMILAR then check out:

Victoria's Secret "Amber Romance" - if you're into sweet amber/vanilla scents.

Victoria's Secret "Coconut passion" - if you like sweet vanilla + coconut.

Both are very long lasting and you can get incredible deals from VS.

Reb'l Fleur Perfume points: 7.5/10

I was so excited to try this after reading some positive reviews. VERY strong opening with plum, amber, patchouli, and floral notes. It just seemed weird so I let it dry down before smelling it again. After a few minutes, I was hit with a tsunami of patchouli. The kind of strong musky fragrance that could cause hurricanes, falling skyscrapers, and incite riots throughout cities. I was also hit with a massive headache. I've never been a fan of patchouli for these reasons. I prefer fragrances backed by notes such as sandalwood, amber, or vanilla. As for staying power, I had a headache for an hour and all of the hand sanitizer and baby wipes in the world couldn't tame the patchouli beast (5-6 hours of agony and red skin).

I hope everyone else's experience with this fragrance is better than mine was. :/

smells great just like summer in the tropics, wish it worked with my body chemistry

This is a really surprisingly unique fragrance! I love it! Rihanna definitely stayed true to her Barbados roots, as this is WITHOUT A DOUBT a tropical fragrance. If you hate tropical/fruity scents.. stay clear! This would be perfect for summer nights, and cooler weather. Please don't wear this if it's DISGUSTINGLY humid outside, as it may turn sour fast! Longevity is absolutely wonderful on my skin! I easily get at least ten to eleven hours. Wonderful! I would definitely recommend!

While I don't enjoy the initial scent, I love the drydown on me. For some reason the coconut doesn't come through at all for me.

Hate this with a passion it smells like shit to be completely honest.I almost threw up when I smelled this.

i did not mean to buy this perfume, i wrote it off as another celeb bottle of juice but my curiousity won out and i took a whiff. WOW! i bought the big bottle immediately and whenever i wear it, co-workers tell me i smell great. It smells very feminine and sweetly sexy. i dont smell any coconut, infact i think its a tad heavy in a good way. I really love this scent and i will be wearing it for a very long time.

I love this fragrance!

The first time i tried it i sprayed the normal amount onto my skin and it was a mistake. I think if you spray as you usually do you will find it too strong. The reason i tried again was because the drydown is amazing. Then the second time i literally only put one spray on and the opening was so much lighter and nicer.
It lasts forever, i put it on after a shower in the morning once and it was still there faintly AFTER my shower the next morning.

Tips: Don't overspray, i did this again in a rush on the way to the movies, i almost died sitting there in it for 2 hours and im sure everyone around my must have too! Other than that enjoy :)

Probably the girliest perfume in my collection. Sweet but with a deeper vanilla musk undertone to it to keep it from being boring. Not fabulous, but still very nice.

The bottle is supposed to resemble the heel of a stiletto - for Rihanna's love of shoes. Is what I read in an article.

I really like the scent, it is exotic and coconutty. But I really HATE the bottle. It is the most ugly bottle ever. Especially the 100ml. size - so massive, huge and awkward. Could imagine this scent in a beautiful, black bottle (in another shape!!) with gold letters on it, or something. Anything would in fact be better than the real bottle. Even worse that the follower, Rebelle, has the same hidious design.

this is spicy, powdery, rich, and a little bit sweet. very mature/heavy scent. reminds me of a couple different perfumes... Jessica Simpson's Fancy Nights and Avon's Imari Mystique.
i do love this scent..but it smells like others.

The design is horrible. But this parfume is like the one. I want to buy it so badly.

I got this for Christmas and I thought I wouldn't like it at all, since my favourite perfumes are Davidoff Cool Water and the Hollister SoCal perfume. I normally don't like very sweet scents but I really love this one and have been wearing it everyday! I love the warm sweet smell it gives and it doesn't make me feel dizzy, like most other sweet scents do, such as mariah carry's perfumes. I recommend this for people who like sweet scents, mostly coconut and vanilla is smellt.

I love this scent! Its a very strong, warm, spicy scent. Its very original, I have tons of perfumes & I've never smelled anything like this. Worth every penny :) One of my favs!

When I first smelled this perfume, I thought it was way too strong. Then after a week or so I went back to smell it once more, just to make sure..and guess what? I fell in love.
I don't know what I smelled before but, it was nothing like what I smell now.
It's has a very gentle sweetness to it, whether it's the coconut or the vanilla I LOVE IT.
I always give my coat a spritz and it lasts for days.

I signed on to see what all the scents were 'supposed' to be in this complex perfume. I love coconut but I honestly don't smell it in this, at least not on me. I smell a very citrus-y top note (the combination becomes almost grapefruit = its bitter sweet and bright), complex mid notes, and definitely patchouli base note = which is why I bought it, because its unique! Finally! So many trendy perfumes smell either like roses or candy. This is definitely unique.

A little bit of everything makes this fragrance so fab. It’s sweet, fruity, floral, creamy, spicy, warm and coconutty! Rihanna went all out. On first application it’s fruity, the plum, peach and the red berries take centre stage, then the florals come through and as a Patchouli hater and a Tuberose disliker I still enjoy this stage. They’re not very strong but it gives the fragrance some depth, the coconut makes it creamy during this stage too. Lastly, the fragrance becomes warm, musky and spicy. This is one of the best celebrity fragrances out there in my opinion. It’s bold and not as safe as others. The lasting power is fab too, I put it on in the morning and can still smell it at the end of the day. I love it.

I love this perfume so much I bought it when it released and now it about to be a new year and i have very little left of it! so sad. I love the tropical notes especially the coconut vanilla. The packaging is to die for. however, the smell dies out in 2 hours or so. booohooo! but I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
my #CUPOFTEA

Yes i agree- the opening is a little bit overwhelming ...a bit too much of "everything" in it in my opinion. But after few minutes-half an hour it becomes a very lovable fragrance.

It is a bit rebellious as apart from very sweet notes(i can smell tropical fruit) it also has a lot of vanilla, amber and musk. I think it is quite good combination as the result is stunning. I was not expecting that at all. I thought it would be a boring fragrance, some kind of peachy-soapy thing. I am glad I was wrong . It is different than all the other sweet fragrances, it is very mature and well, I do think it is sophisticated.

I have only been wearing it for couple of days and I like it very much so far. It lasts all day on my skin and clothes.

Wearing this perfume I can actually imagine myself wearing some outrageous, rebellious outfit and be against the whole world ...;))))be an evil character! yes! that's how I feel wearing it :) but it is good, you know- imagine you are someone completely different for a day ;)

The opening is terrible!
The dry down is a warm vanilla smell.
But again can't stretch enough how horrible the opening is...BLEH! I would give it a 6.5

I like the drydown very much in this perfume. The sweetness subsides, and the musk and spice come out to play. It is still sweet, but not as much so, and lingers close to my skin. I think i am going to get the bigger bottle. I cant see this as an everyday perfume or a dressy one. Just for when i need a sweet pick-me-up. I saw this at BURLINGTON COAT FACTORY two weeks ago, but at that time i had not tested it. Now, after testing it at Macy's, I think i will revisit Burlington Coat Factory and keep my fingers crossed that they still have it!

This is a sweet but musky scent. I purchased this in Barbados when I was there on vacation. I kept eyeing it b/c I had tried it on before in the states while shoping one day but since i was in duty free place also wanted to buy a perfume that is very expensive where I can get at better rate this was CHANEL of course. I did buy my CHANEL but like i said wanted Rihanna's to. So after i bought CHANEL and they said"heres a 40% off your next purchase here" i was sold and bouth rebel. I regret I only got the 1.7 bottle because this stuff goes fast. For a few extra bucks i would of had more.
Guys when buying perfume and its you favorite always opt to spend a bit more for more perfume. You will only spend like 20 0r 30 more for twice as much.
I love the strong scent of coconuts and patchouli in this fragrance. Reminds me of a sophisticated bad girl. I guess thats what she wanted.
Now i have to try Beyonce's perfume anything she does is gold.
oh and I do hate celebrity perfumes as well. They are such wannabes in this market.

Hi ..

Nice one !! Just remove the coffee notes from (very sexy 2007 by victoria's secret) then add some fruits you will get Reb'l Fleur ;)

Rebel Fleur gave me the cheesy impression since first sniff, its not a bad perfume but it definatly needs a little bit of "cream" in the composition. This is an 80' chypre mixed with your Escada overly sweet and fruity perfume. It does remind me of coconutt and peach liquor, but not in the glass but in the toilet after a beach party when you drink to mutch! I think its too sweet and strong for teens but it can easily go well in a tropical girl like Rihanna once was.
Its the perfect fragrance for the ones who want a fruity floral in the winter, to remind the hot sun of summer.
It gaved me a headache but yey thats my impression, if you love Escada summer editions try this for winter, you might love it!
Oh by the way, the advert is totally misleading because it gives you the ideia of sophistication when this scent has a cheap quality to it, this is not bad because I'm a lover of Tabu and Tabu is the cheap smelling queen, I'm just saying that dont buy this because of the advert because you are not going to get what you expect!
Ah, and this perfume reminds me of another cheapie that this time I love - Avon, Far Away! Far Away has more class though.

I came from Jakarta, Indonesia..

Frankly to say, really hard to find this Perfume in Perfume Store, but..

Just bought yesterday from Online Shopping for USD 25, and arrived today :)

Rihanna - Reb'l Fleur 100 ml, and I feel so rebel,

I opened the Box, and smell a Coconut Scent from the noozer without spray it,

Then before gym, I sprayed it to my wrist, lower neck and chest,
And I really can feel so Rebel with the Cherries Scent+Super Exotic Coconut !
In fact, my smell sense is the worst one, but I can feel the mixed woody & spicy scents =)
This perfume seems like Sarah Jessica Parker - Lovely, despite SJP is more bold, Rihanna - Reb'l Fleur give You more blast scents,

U'll be so energized & impulsive while smell Rihanna - Reb'l Fleur =)

The only weak is, this's not too long lasting, only 2 hours stayed in myself(Air Conditioner Indoor),

I am Brazilian guy: Meu Deus este perfume é fantastico. No inico acontece aquela magia que enaltece as notas doces provenientes da água de coco, pessegos, ameixas, não se esquecendo das frutas vermelhas (cerejas). Depois vai se desenvolvendo com notas florais do hibisco e tuberosas. O patchouli traz audácia!!! O fundo segue doce e leve bem perto da pele, que traz calor imanado do musk, ambar e baunilha. Perfume para a pessoa que quer ser marcante e dominar. Lembrando que o frasco é unico e especial. Grato

My God, this scent is fantastic. Initiative took place in the magic that enhances the sweet notes from coconut water, peaches, plums, not forgetting the red fruit (cherries). After going to developing with floral notes of hibiscus and tuberose. The patchouli brings bold! The fund follows sweet and light very close to the skin, which brings warmth magnet musk, amber and vanilla. Perfume for the person who wants to be striking and dominating. Recalling that the bottle is unique and special. grateful

Im a bit vain and reluctant to all these celebrity fragrances, but as i used in the past JLo because i liked JLo, i have decided to give this one a try because (surprise surprise!) i like RiRi!:)

And i do not regret it. I must admit i have tried it 3 times in 3 different days as i wanted to be totally objective.

The result was...i bought it!:)

Negatives: i absolutely hate the packaging, u grab the stuff off the shelf and the perfume box falls on the floor while u still stupidly hang on RiRi's picture on a cardboard wrap, not very inspired design really. Next: the bottle design in itself really sucks, looks cheap and nasty and its not very manageable either (especially when u handle the 100ml bottle).

On a good note, and the most important thing, i REALLY like the perfume. It reminds me of Loverdose in a way, just because the opening is so strong and memorable. Loverdose was all about liquorice, this one is all about coconut!

Another positive note is that it lasts ages, sprayed it in the afternoon and next morning was still there!
Beautiful scent if u are into this kind of sweety stuff.

I`m surprised... this id not any sweet water for teenage girls. It`s actually quite mature scent and was it softer, composed of more natural ingredients It would resemble in the middle notes my beloved Zahra by Swiss Arabian. Eventually it turns into sweet chypre. If I was given a bottle I`d most probably use it :)

This smells so pleasant in the bottle. But spray it on your skin....

It may just be my skin reacting with the perfume, but Reb'l Fleur smells like a man's cologne on me. Straight up burly/caveman/WWE wrestler man. I don't get much, if any sweet notes, and I mainly smell spices, amber, and pink pepper, which isn't one of the notes in this fragrance. However, the fragrance lasts quite a while (my friend sprayed some on her jacket 3 days ago and can still smell it very strongly). So, if you like this perfume, you'll find the lasting power is worth what you payed.

Not my scent for sure, and it may sound hilarious, but if you are a guy, you may want to try out this perfume...wow. Did I just recommend a LADIES PERFUME to MEN???

too sweet, musty and cloying as a final touch. coconut barf byproduct, yuck. overpowering, suffocation tool.
try again!

Delicious berries, right touch of floral and musk/amber is what I'm getting. I'm not good with notes yet. It all blends together very nicely. A touch of coconut. It's not too sweet, it's not too fruity... The musk is the perfect offset. I've been sniffing my wrist off and on for an hour and a half. So far, I'm VERY pleased as this was a blind buy.

peppery and spicy,not getting the plum or peach.Not as fruity as i would have liked.To me its nothing like black xs,just not sweet enough.

To me, this perfume smells similar to Paco Rabanne Blaxk XS for Her, which i like, so therefore i like this one too. When i first saw that may had voted for the coconut note to be most prominent in this perfume, i was a bit afriad of testing it,since i dont like coconut in a fragrance, but the coconut note isnt that prominent as it seems luckily, so if you, like me dont like coconut notes, dont be afraid of testing this, it doesnt scream coconut :)

I get a hint of the expensive smell of Angel. They don't really smell alike, nor have I checked if the notes are similar, I just get that rich smell from the top notes as soon as I smell it. That's not a bad thing, but it's not my kinda thing!

Smells like a horrid glade toilet spray used in motels lol, a synthetic fruity floral mess.

Reb'l Fleur by Rihanna is surprisingly not bad. It's a fragrance that appeals to me most of the time, but there are the occasions where I find it a little too sweet, but overall, it's an impressive composition.

It's a rather sensual, sweet and earthy blend of coconut, tuberose, peach, patchouli and vanilla. It's a little bit different I suppose, veering away ever so slightly from the typical fruity or sugary sweet celebrity scents.

It settles nicely, which is the main thing, and I find it very inoffensive and lush. I quite like the dominant coconut accord in Reb'l Fleur because it doesn't smell too beachy, instead it's somewhat foody and sexy. The scent actually makes me think of nightclubs, particularly those popular inner city ones. Certainly not sleazy clubs.

I like Rihanna's style, and so far I like her fragrance. Reb'l Fleur feels and smells like quality, so I applaud her for that. The longevity is good, as is the sillage.

From what I can gather around the stores where I live, Reb'l Fleur sells extremely well, however I haven't managed to smell it on every teen girl as of yet. Hopefully this fragrance will catch on the same way that Britney Spears Fantasy did.

I heard very good reviews for this perfume, so I was excited to sniff! I love Rihanna.. I love sweet, girly perfumes so this sounded perfect but I found it was so light, almost non-existent when I tried it. I struggled to get a clear smell from it, the smell is quite nice. It didn't last long and so I would say it's a very weak perfume that I wouldn't buy a bottle of. Love the bottle though!

I think this perfume is just gorgeous! It's really sexy and sophisticated unlike some other sweet inspired perfumes. I love the way it's fruity and musky. They blend really well together. I'll be buying a couple of bottles of this for my friends at Christmas! Highly recommended.

I ignored this perfume for months, finally I take a sniff and I'm shocked it smells like Gucci Flora's little sister.

There are two ways to look at this, one - the positive way by saying it's a softer gucci flora,

or 2- by saying that it smells like a cheap copy of ut gucci flora, it's fleeting and gone on about 20 minutes, what I'm left with is just tiny pieces of gucci flora

Gucci Flora may be more expensive, but ...there is no need to respray, or to spray excessively

And strange enough I also laughed at the bottle, but now kind of like it

Ouuuuuuu! what a sexual, warm, sensual scent my brain usually don't agreee with patchouli but i don't know what it is in this Rihanna Reb'l Fleur it's SCREEEEEMING... COME TO ME BABE MAMA!!! i just have to say love! love! love ! Not to sweet coconut yah! i get this but not sure it would be a summer frag! i love it & on me... it last FOREVER ... i like that 100ml will last me forever

I was surprisingly pleased with this one. Im not a fan of a lot of the celebrity fragrances out there. But even tho I'm no Rihanna music fan, I sure loved this perfume.

It's teeny bit floral, without smelling like florists shop, a teeny bit sweet, without smelling like a 12yr old, teeny bit gourmand, without smelling like muffin, and a little musky without smelling rotten or off. It all comes together in a nice mix that is very interesting on the skin, dries down very beautifully to something creamy and a tad woodsy.

To me the perfect perfume smells just a wee bit "dirty"..like the aftermath of sex and this one hits the nail on the head for me on that level. Men I have met that complimented me on this also agree-they love it:)

Staying power is very, very good as well

Not a fan of Rihanna, however I tried this out today. Coconut, coconut and more coconut. I couldn't smell anything else. Pleasant enough but I wont be lining her pockets!

first spritz i get is a big smack of gorgeous peach-plum with a slight musky (SEXY) edge to it.
it lasts a very long time with the dry down lasting for hours making me feel really good about my purchase.
first day i bought Reb'l Fleur me and my partner were walking into target and we saw his hairdresser, she immediately noticed what i was wearing and said "what are you wearing, it smells gorgeous, i need to check it out"
id deff purchase again.

It is soft and pretty. It didn't blow me away. It is a safe, pretty scent. If your looking for something bolder and stronger, but similar in style, Stella Cadente Miss Me, a discontinued fragrance. Still can find on Ebay. Another fragrance in this young, fruity, sweet category is Taylor Swift's Wonderstruck. If your looking for a good coconut scent, Sarah Jessica Parker's NYC Crush, very good coconut fragrance.

when i first smelled it i didnt care for it but it grew on me because it doesnt smells like everything else. she did a good job with this perfume. made it original.
a burst of fruit on the first pray and a kinda sexy ending.
i dont understand why this doesnt sell that good where i live?

i love it cuz its different and smells wonderful.
overall and 8
lasting power a 8

good job rihanna! one perfume i can wear any time of the year

Update: i got this for 39 bucks online. cant wait for it to hit tjmaxx at about 24 dollars so i can buy another bottle.

I'm not usually sensitive to scents but every time I wear this perfume I get a wicked headache! :(

Its sweet and sexy and almost a bit powdery. Not amazing but its good for those days where your not sure how you feel

First of all, why does Rihanna have to get almost naked for the campaign add of Reb’l Fleur? The perfume is for women and you don’t have to get naked to sell a perfume to a woman. Or are they hoping that men will buy this for their ladies hoping they’d be more like Rihanna when wearing this?
And what’s up with the shape of the bottle. It’s hard to spray even if you hold it with two hands.
Actually I have nothing against Rihanna. I like her music but I’m not a big fan. But I was interested in trying her first perfume and I finally got the chance. I have never liked patchouli and this is the only thing that ruined it for me. It’s a really pleasant fragrance. It didn’t have a wow-effect but it’s nice with all its fruits and vanilla. I’d consider buying it if patchouli would be more subtle.

wow i actually really like this so much that i literally oversprayed myself
fab lasting power too

This fragrance blew me away.I am not a fan of Rihanna but I have nothing against her.But, I just happened to try this perfume and it left me utterly speechless.Upon first spritz I was like wow what is this.I sprayed more on it develops so beautifully on my skin like burst of flowers and other spicy notes that you couldn't even point out.It smells like a beautiful bouquet of flowers all bright red with fiery spicy notes that make it smell womanly not girly.It lasted about 9 hours on my skin what an amazing first fragrance.I love how it doesn't smell like all the rest.The bottle is like scultured glass very nicely done.I adore this fragrance so much I will be buying a big bottle of it soon.And will start hoarding bottles of this just in case.This is the best fragrance I tried in a very long time and I was so ready to not like it.It just goes to show that you never know.I love it can't wait for her new one.

A pleasant fruity scent that left very little impression on me. Won't be buying a full bottle.

It is an okay perfume. I like it yes but it doesn't last long and it is very sticky. But the smell is amazing! It's like fruity at first then sweet at the end.

I test-sprayed it and didn't like it. I found it too intense and cheap somehow. Like a bad copy of a floral-gourmand.

PS: I did the skin test yesterday. The start was a bit like pina colada but soon it developed into something like a rotten sweet fruit on my skin. My friend didn't like it either. The lasting power seemed unfortunately good.

this is the only perfume with coconut that i can stand! i absolutely hate coconut anything, but this perfume is so nice i can ignore the coconut. had they toned that coconut note down, it would've been perfect! i think it makes it smell like a cleaning product almost.

i love this! summer sexy!

All berries smell similar when used in perfumes, but REB'L FLEUR has slightly more distinctive notes, which lean towards tart rather then sweet. Cranberry perhaps? After the berries the plum is the next strongest fruit, but I can't separate any peach in the sweet/sour jumble. The soft coconut and vanilla are present through all of the fragrance, with adds a creamy sweetness and warmth to the mix.

REB'L FLEUR earns many bonus points with me because the tuberose is watered down and the subtle violet sort of powders the note down. As far as I know real hibiscus doesn't really have a discernible scent and as far as I can tell the perfumers have used a mix of florals, including frangipani, in it's place. I catch occasional hints of the other florals used, but nothing else is strong enough to stand out from the other key scent notes. Fragipani is sweet and a bit nutty, so the vanilla and coconut make it stronger.

There is no strong indication between the heart notes and the base of REB'L FLEUR, thanks to the constant trickle of coconut and vanilla. The amber, patchouli and musk are mingled closely together so it is a warm and creamy mix - it is nice, but it is a blend that is used in many fragrances today. Looking at my dresser I can immediately see two different perfumes with the exact same ingredients.


I found the idea behind REB'L FLEUR (rebel flower) intriguing; blending together tougher, attention grabbing notes with softly feminine florals. And the tagline 'Bad feels so good' seemed to confirm that this would indeed be a bold fragrance, with noticeable contrasts between the scent notes. I don't think that the finished fragrance lives up to it's image and marketing, but it is 'nice'. However, I won't be replacing my almost empty bottle -at least not before checking everything else on offer out first. As you can see it's a short review and that's because whilst is is very pleasant to wear, it's nothing new and it doesn't excite me.

I initially smelled this on paper and decided I liked it. BIG MISTAKE. Once this developed on my skin, This perfume reminded me of the little tree shaped car fresheners that you hang on your rear view mirror. It smells like a coconut, peach, and musk one mixed together- but not in a good way... More like in a stifling, plasticky, "please open the car window because I feel sick" way.

It seems like they tried to make fruit, floral, and musk work together....and were unsuccessful. It smells like my Dad!! Only with fruit salad slathered on him. It's THAT weird.

At first spray, it seems as though Reb'l Fleur is going to be a unique offering in the celebrity fragrance sub-genre. It is heavy on the musk, warm coconuts, various exotic fruits that are almost rotten but not quite, a dash of patchouli and some tamed tuberose. It doesn't smell terrible, but like many others have mentioned, it teeters on that "cheap smell" that is difficult to explain but most of us know it when we smell it. This fragrance is very thick, but it has just two layers. The tolerable, likeable, wearable opening phase, (this lasts about 20 minutes), and the uhh-ohh-no-way this smells flat, cheap, I hope it wears off quickly phase. No such luck, as this rebel is going to...well, REBEL! I mean, really. One spray of this juice lasted until I felt a bit sickly, so I gave up and took a shower. I don't say that about many perfumes and truly, I thought I may like this. Something about Reb'l Fleur reminds me of Beyonce's first, Heat. Both Heat and Reb'l open with that boozy, rich sweetness that thickens into nearly rotten, uber sweet fruit and cheap vanilla musk. The differences? Heat has about 30 seconds of a really pretty peach note before it evaporates into unpleasantness and Heat doesn't have Reb'l Fleur's Tuberose. Just to be certain, I am putting myself through a testing as I am typing this. I wonder if anyone else has noticed the similarity between Heat and Reb'l?

there is a note in here that is nice! it just gets crowded by other ones fighting for attention, the first half of a sniff is lovely but the smell at the end, disgusting !

This perfume is best suited to teenage girls who enjoy sweet sticky cloying scents like: Can Can by Paris Hilton or Fantasy by Britney Spears. I impulsively purchased this scent because I was under the illusion it would be one of those unique fruity musky scents which celebrities sometimes surprise us with. This fragrance is nothing spectacular very run of the mill cheap fragrance, nothing to write home about. PASS. For the bottle I give ** for practicality. For looks ****

I really love this perfume. It smells amazing!!! It's nice and sweet.. very floral, but not too much. I would recommend it :)

Update : (addition to my last review)

I broke down and ordered a bottle of Reb'l Fleur for a good price. I honestly like the scent, but no way I will be carrying it with me in my handbag - my 100 ml bottle is extremely silly, chunky and huge!
High heel? It`s a trumpet.

Longevity is not really good on me - I`m jealous of those saying it`s too strong. To me it`s not long lasting enough , not better than other celeb efforts really.
Also, to me this is not a chypre but a fruity floral.
It`s a "like" from me because the scent itself is lovely indeed and I`m glad I have purchased a bottle.

I dont know why people love this scent so much, whenever I first smelt it all I got from it was rotten fruit and patchuli! I dont think it smells exotic at all in fact it smells the opposite, if you want a nice exoctic scent try fancy nights by jessica simpson, it doesnt have that nasty rotten fruit smell to it.

I spritzed this on a tester card at ULTA and was disgusted, but found myself complimenting a woman who came into my work wearing it... I think I need to try it on, because it smelled nothing like what I had originally experienced. It seems like it has a lot of potential to smell cheap.

I purchased this perfume recently. I normally dont buy celeb perfumes, but when I smelled this one in the store I liked it. I sprayed the perfume on once I got home. It reminded me of Calvin Kleins Euphoria. Even though they are different, I found on my skin it had some similarities. Reb'l Fleur was a little more vanilla and the Euphoria was just a little more floral.

I don't know why, but I just cannot handle this fragrance anymore, I loved it when I purchased it, but now it is starting to smell a lot like rotten oranges. The drydown is beautiful, the most exotic scent I have ever smelt, but I can't handle the top notes and thats what ruins the fragrance. I am still trying to like it. I love Riri, but I just cannot love her perfume.

EDIT: IMO this does not smell anything like angel or alien.. This is just a big rotten fruit salad/orange mess!!!

I was really trying hard to like this perfume as I am a fan of Rihanna but I just couldn't :(

Words to describe this perfume:

'In your face'
'peppery'
'Potent'
'Fiery'

So if these descriptives appeal then this perfumes for you..

Sorry Rihanna - still love your music though :)

I think the reason why this smells weird to many people is the aspects of so many other familiar perfumes appear to be rolled into this one. I imagine Riri likes those perfumes and wishes there was one which balanced them all together so she designed this. Of course you will either like it or struggle with it. I don't think it is safe as a present to someone nor is it safe for the office only if you spray too much. The lasting power I found to be really good. I liked the changes in it rather than a flat one dimensional smell. I like the bottle it is very different and suits riri's style. I like all the other designer perfumes that this smells like so I was really pleased to find a perfume that melds them together and some how doesn't mess it up. For me I like it and it works on my skin but I am sorry for those who tried it and it just didn't work because it is a shame it is everywhere and easy to afford and lasts. I can't wait to see if she does another flanker. I didn't expect her to have a tropical perfume just because she is from Barbedos, Riri has never been one to stick to what's expected and that I like she has guts to be herself and her perfume reflects that.

This perfume smells just like her new album, horrible. She obviously shouldn't be targeting an older audience so she shouldn't make her fragrance a mix between angel,alien & euphoria. The fragrance should have been more flirty and sweet not this. She needs to recover herself and come out with the hottest fragrance next time. disappointed. beyonce whooped her fragrance

It DID smell really nice when I sniffed the bottle, so there was mistake no. 1.
On my skin it changed immensely, starting with a strange plastic-like peach smell and then leaving me with an annoying ridiculous fake-coconut smell. Then I went to work, so there was mistake no. 2.
Unfortunately for me, lasting power is great so the fake-coconut lasted forever on my skin, sticky and cloying.

Let's just say - Reb'l Fleur did not work for me. It should be great because the bottled juice smelled divine. I guess it just doesn't work well with my body chemistry.

To me this is more of a fruity floral rather than a chypre fruity so it was surprising to see it labeled as that. I really love it and I got the big bottle which is sure to last AGES because you only need a few sprays to make it last forever. I love how this perfume has different stages, its like an extreme roller-coaster ride for my nose! You get the fruits for the first 30 seconds and then the florals for the next few seconds, and afterwards you are left with the loveliest base ever. I can't believe I waited so long to try this.To be honest I was initially put off by the bottle but after smelling it... I really think this ones a keeper. I don't ever want to be without my Reb'l Fleur.

Do they have an EDT version, because this is a bit too strong and cloying for me...

The red berry smell in the top notes really ruins the fragrance, but once it starts to dry down, its the most wonderful coconut scent I have ever smelt...

reb'l fleur is a verry sexy smell! I really enjoy wearing it! The peach and the berries make a big entrence to fade quickly into a coconut-plum! The hisbiscus,being an exotic flower,makes you dream of an exotic island...the tubereuse create a femme fatale smell ,joined by the hisbiscus, it's intoxicating! The coconut water creates that fabulous exotic vibe to it! Of course there is patchouli that spices things up!but,next to a coconut smell,it is verry delicious!the vanilla completes that smell nicely,like a sunset!the musk brings caracter to the fragrance! I really think that this smell represent a sexy,exotic,feminine woman! Those who enjoy:lady million, halle, pure orchid,angel,should add this one to your collection! Love that one!

Idk where people are getting off by calling this fragrance "fruity", because it is NOT fruity at all. It's really strong. Go in and smell Dark Kiss at B&BW and it's basically like smelling Reb'l Fleur.

I feel once I spray this on it's really strong and sticky, and I've even had some say that it smells sorta manly-ish. The lasting power, at least on me, is so-so.

I was told by the lady at Macy's who sold this to me that the bottle was suppose to be like a stiletto heel. I guess you could see it as that, maybe if you're a hooker or a tranny. Either way, the perfume is decent and I love Rihanna so it just works.

Okay, this is sweet. At first it's pure grape jolly rancher. Next, I get the most realistic sticky sweet cotton candy, almost like I've just eaten some and it has melted onto my skin and I haven't rinsed it off yet. Then it begins to fade, losing the sticky quality, retaining the sweetness, until it picks up a musty odor towards the end - and this is where I stop enjoying it. It does get musty, not musky - musk I like, musty like damp stagnant air. Almost like walking through a crowded fair on a hot humid summer night (sweat and all) with a puff of cotton candy in my hand. I do enjoy the beginning though.
Sillage is good. Lasts a few hours.

When I reed what was in Rihanna's perfume I through that it was going to be really sweet and not nice.I was so so so wrong it's a really nice smell.It's a different smell not sweet but not strong.It also smells nice and fresh just I like.You can smell the coconut but it not a heavy smell it's fresh and you cant really smell it.The coconut and the cherries or not over powering which I'm glad about.I still cant believe that it smells so good I was shock when I first smelt it because I through in was not going to be nice but I was so so wrong.I have tried Beyonce's perfume Heat and it was not that nice went of it really quick it smelt too sweet and sickly.I tried Britney's and they are too sweet the only one I liked with her Believe perfume but it does not stay on your clothes for long.I have also tried Coleen's x perfume with one in the purple bottle did not like that I have tried Christina's,Paris Huston's,Mariah's and a lot more I didn't not like them.I'm very fussy when it comes to perfume but I have not say that you should smell and buy Rihanna's it's so nice

It's nice, but it's almost similar to the 'Beyonce Heat' perfumes.. The drydown is a little disappointing and not that deep as i axpected it to be, does not last very long on my skin, but the bottle is beautiful. This one is not an original one, but if you like warm and sweet scents you should try it.

its a weird smell... it starts smelling really good then 5 min later it goes a little bit old lady smell perfume rancid dry!
i wore it but no compliments or nothing...

getting rid of it... to old smell for me proly my mom would love it its an older sexy women smell.

rihanna i was expecting more of a tropical smell from you common you are from barbedos!!!!

it's ok, to my smell like miracle forever (lancome), nice fragrance for spring or fall, it's really sweeeeettt!!

okay so it does smell lush,but i dont see where everyone is getting the coconut from,okay so theres hints but nothing in your face which is annoying : / smells lovely though,peaches is defo strong. lovely summer frangrance!

seriously clumpy packaging, the fragrance is an initially pleasant warm fruity floral which suffers from the usual cheap and slightly masculine drydown. Not a celeb smell triumph, I'm afraid, though the idea may have been good, the budget is too low and it shows.
However, I will try it on skin next time and see if the development is better!

This fragrance has a very fruity scent. I tend to lean more towards floral based fragrances. When I first smelled this fragrance for some reason I wanted a big bowl of ice cream. Personally, Reb'l Fleur is NOT for me. However, I do love the simplicity and elegance of the bottle.

i do not get any fruity notes in this one, nevertheless i love it. it is warm and really strong and it contains vanilla and coconut:). the lasting power is amazing. i would have never expected that rihanna's perfume would smell like that. i think the creators did a great job with this!

It takes a hell of a perfume to make me stray from my Britney Spears collection, but DAMN Rihanna you got me with this one.
I just got this today and I am in LOVE with it.
I have never smelt anything like this before, I have been looking for a perfume with Coconut in it for so long and I have found a diamond with this one.
Its gorgeous, I love how the Peach, Vanilla and Coconut blend together to give an alluring sweet seductive, scent. It does not smell cheap or overly sweet though when I had my first spray, it gave my skin a lovely warm sensual feel.
After it had been on my skin a while I got a lot more sweetness but in a more subtle way.
At this point I got a beautiful smell of Toffee, Caramel and Milk Chocolate. I always think its funny how people can smell different notes in perfumes even when they are not listed.
A FANTASTIC creation Rihanna.
I hope you add another fragrance to your line very soon.
:)

I tested Rihannas`s fragrance yesterday. I have decided a long time ago that I would only buy nice and expensive perfumes from now on, but I loved Reb'l Fleur so much that it instantly landed on my Want list! Too bad I can never resist a nice sweet perfume!

Very warm, fruity and surprisingly longlasting on my skin. In fact this is one of the better celebrity offerings out there, very nice indeed with decent sillage.

I can smell a sweet blend of red berries, peach, vanilla and coconut. Definitely has a hot vibe to it, this is something you could wear on a summer night. I don`t find it young or childish - classy enough for ladies of all ages!

One last thing though - the bottle is just ridiculous IMO! Makes the fragrance appeal cheap. Also to me this is a "RED" fragrance , I would have given it a different color and design, but it is purely nitpicking, I am so getting a bottle of this!

My initial thoughts were that this was unsophisticated, too familiar and that the top notes were too sharp and startling. The middle notes are warm sugary and a little sultry, but definitely a summer scent; but I keep thinking that this is for a young party girl. What I do like are that the scent is longlasting. It has nice warm base notes although sometime in the before the final phase, I sensed the distinct scent of latex rubber gloves. But that must be just my body's chemistry. The base notes to me are vanilla with a hint of citrus. It's not bad; it's just not something I want to smell on me.

I gave this a try today and i've only sprayed it once but I thought I'd write down my initial thoughts on it anyway. It's very strong not a great idea to try it on a really humid day like I did!. It's ok like a previous reviewer has said it seems kind of familiar...I couldn't think what it was and then it struck me, the initial burst is to me like thierry mugler Angel (which I love by the way). However when it dries down a bit it starts to go off in a different direction. I had to wash it off it was simply too overpowering for the day. Perhaps I'll give it another try but all in all I don't think I'll bother seeing as I already have Angel and like it alot better!

Edit:
Well I tried this again and this time on a cool day.....I don't know what I was thinking likening it to Angel as now I can detect that it's very different, must've been the heat! It's quite strong at first spray and I get a sweetness with a strong spicy base which I really like, it reminds me somewhat of Hilary Duff with love only I think it's more complex. There is also a strong exotic floral element which I'm really liking hmmmm this is going on my maybe list!

Edit again: Well I finally decided to get this......and I have fallen completely in love with it! (even though it took a while, its a love that will last not one that your bored with after a week!lol) It's exotic, incredibly warm and spicy and whenever I wear it I feel gorgeous (and on another planet)! Like i've been transported to a wonderful sunny island in my dreams! A wonderful antidote to the last of the dark winter :0) Wonderful quality as it lasts for hours even on me, oh so happy with my purchase and will be anxious to test the next offering from Rihanna!

This perfume is very strong and the peach is overpowering. As it dries down, your skin smells like smarties candy. Reb'l fleur is not worth purchasing. It's a childish, overwhelming scent with a crazy price tag.

I only smelt this briefly in a store with one of my friends. I sprayed the little card and gave her a whiff. "What does it smell like?" I asked. She scrunched up her face and replied "Skank." LOL
No offense to wearers of this perfume! I think it is more of a clubbing scent though, strong, party-vibe... cool for a confident girl.

I've got to admit - I was quite disappointed with this fragrance. After reading many positive reviews about it I was THRILLED to finally give it a spritz to check it out. It wasn't anything special and smelt just too familiar, like a perfume I've already smelt somewhere else. I'll compliment the staying power though, I just couldn't wash it off! :)

i do not really like rihanna, but my boyfriend is a huge fan of her, so i tested it and i have to admit: it is gorgeous!!! it does not smell as "cheap" or boring as other celebrity fragrances, which are nothing more but a typical drugstore scent. this one is sweet, warm but with edges. it is really strong and the lasting power is really great. i can smell it all day long on my skin. as it is really strong i would recommend not more but 2-4 sprays (i prefer 2-3). it is very delicious and kind of exotic (coconut), but not candy or girlish. thumps up for rihanna's perfume ( no matter if u are a fan or not)!

I had a chance to test this last night and I was really surprised to like it as much as I did. I usually stay away from celebrity scents just because they seem to use low quality ingredients as they are mass produced. They usually smell inferior because of this.

But this is not bad! It starts out fruity with a nice light and dry coconut note. This is not a sweet coconut by any means - it's actually quite nice. It is pretty linear but after a while you get to a nice smooth vanilla base. I wouldn't call it gourmand because it's not sweet. It's a good fruity chypre, perfect for summer.

All in all, not as bad as most of the celebrity scents I've tried, but I would not buy a bottle. Not even at a great price. Here's where my "perfume-snob" kicks in. If I'm going to spend my money on a fragrance, it better knock my socks off and this one doesn't even come close to THAT.

W.0.W.
One of my fave perfumes ever !!! I love Rihanna so much and when I heard about this i wanted it so bad i got it a while ago ! but still love it the smell is hard to discribe but i love it !

When I first sprayed this perfume I loved the smell. About 2 hours later, I was left wondering if I had really put perfume on before I left the house. I have found most celeb. scents do not have much lasting power. To me, it is not worth the price simply because it doesn't last. Guess that is why I took it back and exchanged it. When I first put it on there was a berry/creamy coconut scent on my skin and like I said POOF it was all gone. If it had lasting power, I would for sure wear it.

Anytime I wanna feel like I'm at the beach, I just put this on. Blast of pineapple at first, but the dry down is warm and tropical. I bought it because it reminded me so much of Miami Glow, but I think this might be better. The lasting power is crazy on my skin-can still smell it the next day! Very nice summer and fall scent, but you could wear it in the colder months to chase away the winter blahs. I think RiRi was trying to capture her native Barbados in a bottle and she succeeded! I know it's a celebrity scent, but if you go for the tropical, beachy frags, do try this one.

This perfume is so lovely. I love smelling this on women, it's delicious to the nose. The scent is like going on a tropical vacation during December; going from somewhere cold to somewhere warm. On your vacation you get a heavy dose of tropical life, and arrive home to a cinnamon coffee cake your mom made you for Christmas. This scent is fruity, tropical, but comes back to being warm. In this way, it can be worn in any seasons. Bottle is slightly tacky in my taste, but the scent is gorgeous, just like Rihanna herself.

i was soo excited to smell this one, i am looking for a good coconuty smell, love peach, like rihanna and i think the bottle is pretty. i went to macys just to smell it, and was excited that they had a big ol bottle set with lotions and roller ball and everything. so i spray it on and like it for a second then yuk. :( booo! just like britney crap, chemical sugar headache. i seriously had to find some tissue and used makeup brush cleaner and antibacterial stuff to get it off asap.
why do they keep putting this out? i would never like to smell like fake chemical sugaaar headache. if you want sugar go to bath and body and load up on it there.
i am giving up on celeb scents, except for gwenny's L they all suck, well i want to smell halle and her orchid one but am not really hopeful.

Too soapy for me, I got it because of the reviews and the art deco bottle but hated the scent. like old soap.

I love the fact that this fragrance is so Mediterranean, it reminds me of a tropical holiday. I've fallen in love with the coconut notes. This perfume describes my personality and symbolizes my love for tropical places and the sea. I adore Rihanna for creating this scent. WELL DONE.

I smelled this passing through Macy's today without knowing any of the notes and immediately I thought "Flowerbomb". Its a bit more fruity and syrupy than Flowerbomb but still too much like Flowerbomb for me to enjoy any of the gourmand notes. Don't get me wrong I don't hate it (although the design of the bottle is a whole different story!), I just prefer softer fragrances like "Chloe" which I also whiffed for the first time today. I probably will recommend Reb'l Fleur it to my gourmand fan of a sister to replace her sickeningly sweet "Pink Sugar"!

Ok, this is the exact coconut fragrance I've always searched for! The longevity on this is fabulous, and I could see myself wearing this all year round (not just in the Summer) and for this reason this fragrance deserves its praise. It has the oomph factor for my skin, which is a huge plus. The fruity top notes of plum and peach, not to mention the assorted florals- are so well blended and anchored so well with the vanilla, amber, coconut, patchouli and musk base. A must try for the coconut lover.

I tried it last night at dillards along with beyonce heat rush, katy parry and jessica simpons fancy love. I didnt like this one at all along with katy's they both had a funky smell to them rihannas smelt like rotten fruit with old wet sugar all over it. I did however like beyonce and jessica's so I went with those two instead.

Went to Macy's last night & got a feel for the scent. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very sexy & last very well. This morning I went to Macy's & I bought a bottle. With my purchase, they gave me a free purse. Very nice.

I bought this perfume yesterday and I love it soooooooooooooo much! :)) It is excellent for summer, because it reminds me of long evenings at the beach, while you sip on your cocktail of exotic fruits, look at the incoming waves and hear some relaxing raggee music. A lot of this typical summer fragrances don't have a long longevity, but Reb'l Fleur is going strong for hours! That's definitely a plus.
You also shouldn't think that this is a sickening, girly, teenager scent. It is the scent for an exotic or exotic-minded woman. :)
My 50- year- old mother said that she personally wouldn't like that perfume for herself, because it would be too tropical for her. She's more into rose perfumes. So you need to have a taste for fruity fragrances to like this.
Reb'l Fleur is definitely going to be a part of my permanent collection. I bought the smallest bottle for 30 Euros, which I think is an okay price.

One more "celebrity" who has absolute no taste in perfume. Why are they all so sickening sweet?

To be perfectly honest, when I saw this perfume (and bottle resembling a high heel), I burst out laughing. I love this woman's voice, and "style"; but I am ever the skeptic when it comes to "celebri-scents". When I saw this tester (behind the counter, away from young girls with sticky fingers and oversized purses) I thought: "Weeell, why not?!" and sprayed it on paper...

THIS is gorgeous! It opens with a delicious fruitiness that is dark, sweet and tart all at once. Sure, it is "synthtetic" and mass produced, but what isn't these days, for under 100 dollars a bottle??! I imagine eating juicy fruits like plums, nectarines and the like, and then kissing someone and feeling all warm and loved. This is NOT (at least to me) your typical "plastic fruit" perfume for fawning pop fans, this has some depth and some actual "mystique" to it. As the heart begins it's "island beat", the hibiscus warm and full blends with tuberose and its dirty floral dustiness and violet tops it well with just enough green dryness and sleek coolness without overpowering it. Coconut "water" (what you actually hear sloshing around in a coconut when you shake it)is nowhere near as "thick" or sweet as the milk is; and adds some tropical feel to this, without going all Ban de Soleil on you! The vanilla (supposedly in the base) is detectable throughout, giving it an almost gourmand feel, and eventually joins a very raw patchouli, a warm amber resin and a sexy musk...settling to something very appealing and quite yummy! Yeah it's fruity and floral, and has some sensual warmth to it, but I would not actually call it a fruity chypre; maybe a fruity floriental vanilla...?!

Sillage: good
Longevity: very good
Overall: 3.75/5

While trying to rate this scent above, I changed the rating THREE times (going incrimentally higher each time). I do "love" it; but, would I buy a full bottle at retail? Uuuh...NO. I would scoop this up in a "hot second" if I saw it at a discount store though! Much like her music (which I would not buy at full price either), her first perfume is very good and I look for some big things from this girl who took the world by storm with her debut song "Umbrella" and now me...with Reb'l Fleur.

YOU GO, GIRL!!

I wonder when does this perfume will be on sale in Malaysia? hmmm... i guess that i have to wait in patience... huhuhu...

I quite like this. I think it is very good for a celebrity scent, especially if you like fruity fragrances. The dominant scent in this for me is a tropical, fruity, pineapple scent (even though it is not listed as a note). A bit creamy, quite sweet, but still has character.

I don't notice the violet in this (thank god!) but perhaps a little bit of tropical flowers and muskiness. The lasting power is also great.

This scent smells like what I expected J.Lo's Miami Glow to be like. While Miami Glow disappointed me with it's weak fruit-punch scent, Reb'l Fleur is much more juicy, intense and fun.

As a side note, the bottle is a little tacky, but I don't expect much in this department when it comes to celebrity scents...I fail to see how it bears any resemblance to a high heel, lol.

I really really like this scent even it´s too expensive for a celebrity fragrance. I´ve smelled it first in January at Macy´s in Boston and was quite surprised of this strong and delicious smell. A mix between Angel and a yummy vanilla pudding. Bought the biggest bottle in march as it was released in Germany. Now I know I coult get a fragrance like that much cheaper. It smells nearly like Ulric de Varens "Vanilla" and that´s a very cheap but delicious perfume (3 Euro). I regret this purchase a little bit but still it´s a lovely and luscious fragrance, but simply too expensive.

I am pleasantly surprised by this perfume. For a celebrity fragrance it well done and doesn't smell cheap. It's actually sophisticated while still remaining playful! The longevity and spillage is great.

I love Rihanna and this perfume is awesome! I just adore it and my boyfriend says it's one of his favorites. It's fruity, spicy, warm and creamy. Totally sexy! Tranforms so beautifully on the skin. It lasts for hours and sillage is great too. Try it :)

I thought this was really heavy and strong
Not for me at all

I'm writing another review as my other one will be about four pages long if I add to it ;)
I previously mentioned that I was purchasing this for my friend's birthday, and she loved it - doused herself in it immediately and every time I catch up with her, she's wearing it! On her, it smells totally different to how it smells on me - I don't get the spice and dark, radiant heat, just the creamy, sweet and tropical notes with a little 'edge' that's almost indiscernible. On my friend, it's the darker, more pronounced spice and 'sex'. It works great on both of us, just in very different ways. I haven't purchased a bottle yet (it's still very scarce in town, sells out the minute stores get new stock!) but I definitely will when I can find it (cbf buying online right now, waiting for Priceline et al to get more stock in for Mother's Day sales so I can get it at a really good price), it's a great effort for a celeb fragrance. Well done, Rihanna and team!

I loved it! It is very "expensive" smelling. And, I am very particular about perfumes being a long-time Versace wearer. It is a warm fragrance, a little woody like Versace Woman. Men stop me all the time to ask what I'm wearing!!!

I have to be honest I hated this perfume! It smelled like peaches and musk.Very old.Maybe I smelled an old bottle.I dont know but if you like spicy/peppery perfumes you wil probaly like this.

Spotted this in Macy's today, I really like the bottle, it drew me right in it's very creative. The perfume itself is a bit of a disappointment, it smells like cough medicine or some strawberry shampoo or something with a bit of coconut mixed in, it's okay but nothing very different from others I've smelled and I don't love it so I won't be purchasing.

6/10 :o)

It has plenty of coconut made sultry with spicy patchouli... there is also a peaches and cream like vibe, a bit of woods, and tuberose which definitely makes its presence known amongst the rest of the notes. Because of its unique blend and homage to a tropical, rich coconut, I give it 2 thumbs up!

There is something about this perfume that make me think of the 90's and I can't figure out why. Maybe it's the bottle's design, maybe it's the heavy hitting fume reminiscent of a decade where scents were a little bit braver than most tend to be nowaday.

It's unique in its own right and deserves to be tested, if not owned. I won't go out of my way to own a bottle myself, but I do appreciate the innovation. It's not your ordinary celebrity scent.

The opening spritz is like a blast of sugary candy, something teenagers would wear. As time goes on, a sweet-n-creamy coconut scent takes over. I agree with Mandashell that this perfume is better than Miami Glow, more coconutty, if you're into that. The bottle is kinda big, and it's an awkward shape. I don't know why the word "fleur" is in the name of it because this perfume doesn't smell like fleurs whatsoever. I do think this makes a nice summer fragrance with very good sillage. It would do wonderfully in hot weather if you're taking a trip to a tropical island...like Rihanna's home country of Barbados.

Coconut-meets-Black XS-meets-Lady Million, that's basically my interpretation of this fragrance. To me, this is a been there, done that fragrance, but it's nice none the less. I personally wouldn't buy it unless I could get it for a very, very good price(or was given it as a gift). It just doesn't have that X-factor for me.

Not for me, way to sweet. The sales lady tried her best to get me to purchase a bottle. It is like carmel in a spray bottle. I know others like it and I as sure it smells wonderful on them. :)

I thought this was a fantastic scent! You know how some people think a perfume is wonderful and you think...eh...what's so big about it? This is one of them for me. It doesn't have that certain something that makes me float on a cloud but it's GOOD! expensive smelling! not offensive and just super everything you'd want in a perfume. WELL worth the money. I have too many "cloudy" perfumes to purchase this but certainly not because it's anything less than any of my favorites! It's a good "go to anything anywhere" perfume. If your a blind buyer like me, you'll want to grab this for delight and safety sake!

Umm yeah, this will have to go up there with one of the best "celeb" fragrances I have ever sniffed. Better than any recent celeb related perfume that is out at the moment, IMHO. Smells so darn good to me! ;'D It's perfectly fruity, warm, mildly creamy and sweet with the perfect addition of coconut. And patchouli haters have no fear!!! I'm not a fan of that note but it really works here and doesn't bother me at all.

Anyway, for me it was love at first sniff and I happily snagged a bottle. Of course for some it may not be groundbreaking but for me it is great because I own nothing that smells like it in my small collection. What really makes me love this so much is that it reminds me of Pez candy!! LOL! Maybe that sounds odd but that is what I associate with the blast of the opening notes.

Lasting power seems good and it doesn't smell cheap in the slightest. Yep, the bottle is weird to hold but I didn't feel as if it might be dropped. You just have to grip it with your hand and press the sprayer with your finger. Really quite simple actually. ;')

WEll, if you are looking for something fun, fruity and sexy for the summer then you may really enjoy this one. I think this is better than Beyonce Heat, Miami Glow, Glow After Dark and not nearly as sweet as Flowerbomb. It's very well balanced and lovely but also reasonably priced for a new fragrance at Macy's.


Update: This one is very strong but not overwhelming. It has great sillage because I can smell it on myself all day. It also lasts at least 10hrs on my skin which is fantastic!!! So yummy! Love it! ;'D


Update #2: That pineapple note is starting to bother me and maybe this would be better for colder weather. I am finding it too sweet/heady for these warmer temperatures. o.O

I didn't hate it, but i didn't love it either. I guess i like perfumes that are more sweet and subtle. This one is a bit too strong for me. Maybe it might smell better on someone else.

this smells like a floral fruity gormand to me...
prada by prada it slightly resembles too as well as so many others so i dont find it extremely original
i sprayed it on a card and got a little on my hand it smelt for ages (strong,lasting)i couldnt bring myself to spray it on me something like one of j-lo glo as well i dont personally like it but i know my friend would she likes heat by beyonce i pointed it out knowing she would like it even tho i dont like that either
plum annoys me in perfumes i always like the concept and want to like it but it hasnt happened yet

I was reluctant to try this at the store the other day because I'm never too fond of celebrity perfumes.
This one is definitely an exception though!
Rihanna really hit the nail on the head with her debut; it makes me feel edgy and beachy all at the same time.
I think it'll have to be my new signature.

This is a deeply sensual yet fruity perfume. Very well done for a celeb fragrance but not worthy of it's price tag. I'll wait until it gets down to TJMaxx or Marshall's.

A very nice surprise! I tested this one today and I'm quite pleased with it. The fruity, floral coconut top and middle notes are sweet and girlie without being disgustingly sugary, and Reb'l Fleur has a kick in the tail with a spicy edge in the drydown - and the creamy vanilla just makes it. It's wonderful.

It's very coconutty all the way down, but in an unexpected way - instead of a milky, sweet coconut, there's a harder edge to it that gives it a more grown-up feel than what you would expect from the note.

Reb'l Fleur doesn't smell cheap, at all, but on the other hand it doesn't smell expensive either - it's a very good middle-of-the-road fragrance that's quite safe but still unique enough to leave an impression.
I'll have to give it a couple more goes before I decide for sure whether I want to buy it - it is quite a nice fragrance but I'm not sure it's my style. Based purely on one test, I have to say it feels a bit 'young' for me (said by the girl who's not even turned 25 yet lol!), but it would be a nice daytime fragrance for casual summer get-togethers when you're dressing down and just want to have fun.

Give it a shot - for a celeb fragrance it's quite nice and whether you love Rihanna or hate her, I think she's hit the right mark with her debut fragrance. It's not strong enough to polarise opinion but it's not quite 'safe' enough to go out with a fizzle.


ETA: This one must be popular! I am buying it for my friend's birthday and went to every fragrance retailer in town yesterday - sold out everywhere!
I was on the phone this morning to no less than 4 retailers in the nearest city (more than an hour away) before I managed to get hold of a stockist who had 3 bottles left and was willing to put one behind the counter for me so I could pick it up tomorrow morning (my friend's birthday is tomorrow, I couldn't order online as it wouldn't be delivered in time!). That just proves to me how good this fragrance is - great scent for a decent price, and the 'face' behind the fragrance is a hit with nearly everybody.
I know my friend is going to adore this perfume and if the retailer has any left tomorrow morning, I think I will grab an extra bottle for myself!

I was given a bunch of samples to test this out and my impression is that I like this perfume but only for night time like when I'm going out to a bar or a club. It is sooo strong and lasts forever which is really impressive. I could still smell it on my arm the next day after a long night of partying. I smell the fruits in the top mixed with coconut...reminds me a little of Miami glow but it also has a spicey kick. Overall its a nice fragrance, very powerful, too strong for daytime use in my opinion. Not sure if I'll purchase a bottle because my partying days are over and I only go out once in a while.

Smells nice, but nothing very creative. Similar to Beyonce's Heat (but better) in a lot of ways...I might buy it when the price comes down.

If anyone has the perfume Dead sexy by tokyo milk, this smells like that perfume minus the rubber smell Dead Sexy has. I love this perfume. It doesn't last as long on my skin as I had hoped, but it is definetely a very soft sweet smell. I also think it smells a teeny bit like Beyonce's Heat as well but not as sweet as Heat... deeper, fuller and a bit more sexy to be honest

I`m very curious about this fragrance:)Can`t wait to see it in my country,sounds very interesting for me.I`ve never tested anything scent from chypre fruity category.

I was searching for a new fragrance and was impressed with this one. I can care less about who face or name it's link to. It has the right ingredients for me. My husband loves it. I don't like the fact the bottle look like some one used it already. I want a full bottle for the price.

im reading everyones reviews and i see how they think it smells fruity... honestly, i LOVE rihanna and i really wanted to LOVE this fragrance... one good thing about this perfume is that it is strong, doesnt smell cheap and def a standout scent. however, i found it kind of giving me a headache, and it sort of smelled like something my grandmother would wear.

This smelled much better than I imagined it would. I was impressed! But then again I am a HUGE coconut lover and I could smell coconut in this. To me this smelled warm and yummy. I think it smelled similar to Baby Phat "Dare me" and a bit like Beyonce "Heat" nothing the world has not smelled before but certainly wearable and nice.

Tested this out in Dillard's today, actually really well done... I imagined it would just be tropical scented water but I think it is more sophisticated than that. Definitely spicier. The coconut is just the perfect amount! I will have to test this more before purchasing... It is pretty strong and doesn't smell cheap.

Also, seconding the awkward bottle. It is pretty but really hard to spray without almost dropping it.

I think this smells pretty good.The bottle is very odd to hold.I thought i was going to drop it!I went to Macys today and drenched myself in it just to see if i can live with it.It smells warm and cozy on.I do smell the coconut and vanilla.It doesn't come across as Chypre fruity at least on me. I think i'll get it next week!

Sampled at Macy's and I don't like this it is sharp and spicy in the beginning and the bottle is very ugly reminds me of Cabaret by Gres big clunky and cheap looking.I don't like Rihanna anyway but I think now that she looks like ronald mc donald with the red wig the bottle should have had red color this is more for her good girl gone bad hairstlye I think. Oh well I am sure this will be at Marshalls soon and even then I wouldn't buy it.

The berries top note reminds me of Britney Spears fragrance, especially the Radiance, and it has this smooth and warmth from coconut and vanilla; a tiny bit similar to Heat by Beyoncé. It's very fruity, quite sweet and strong. Nothing groundbreaking. There is a subtle, very subtle, hint of tropical vibe however. In addition, I find the bottle is very hard to hold and spray. It almost slipped off my hand at Macy's today. Phew! So I had to hold it like a lighter and sprayed with my thumb; a bit awkward.

I expect more from Rihanna, but this Reb'l Fleur is nice but just another perfume created to please today's mass market. Look for one at discount store soon.

I thought this would be something I'd purchase for my nieces who are all #teamRIRI and be done w/ it. But there is a scent story going on here that needs telling.

Opening w/ a very Spring like fruit basket of plum, and peach with the loveliest tang!! The middle was perhaps less than appealing but it was so short lived- and segued into the warmest autumn vibe. Just lovely- though I found the sillage a bit weak (on me)

I was able to test this yesterday at Dillard's. This smells familiar, but is definitely different than what I expected. The top and middle areas were much brighter and slightly fruitier then I expected. Which is actually done very beautifully! I was worried that it was going to be a sickening coconut mess, not at all. Also, most of you on here know that I am an AVID patchouli hater. But there are a few scents where I can handle it if its blended well. I can't even detect striaght up patch here! I smell a veeeery long lasting SPICEY base. It almost makes my lips tingle. Rebl almost seems like a fall scent in this aspect. I will have to smell it more to see if its for me, but for now its different, and definitely adds a punch! Good job RI RI!

I had an opportunity 2 smell this at macys the other night and I have 2 say I honestly cant wait 2 buy this one... It had a very sophisticated scent 2 it and is very long-lasting... It also isnt a "common" bright fruity-floral like Heat Rush(which I do like btw)... After I make my purchase I will go into further detail...


EDIT- I purchased my bottle about a week ago and I still love this one very much... I tend 2 save this one for nights out because its rather serious for daytime... Its also SERIOUSLY potent so go easy lol and enjoy!!!

Oh no miZZpuRRfect! That totally sucks! I hope you weren't excited about purchasing it. I would not spend 80 dollars on it. I love Rihanna but if they did that, no thanks. : )

80.-- US dollars for 1.7 oz! c'mon Rhianna, don't rip off your teenage fans !

I just went to a local perfume store, and i smelled this, and fell in love. This stuff smells so classy, strong, sweet, & amazing! Keep up the good work rhianna!

Rebe'l fleur smells REALLY GOOD! To me it smells like coconut & berries its very beachy maybe she was trying to capture barbados in a bottle.
it does smell a liiiiitle similar to miami glow but this doesnt smell cheap. i highly recommend this fragrance! cant wait to wear it in the summer

Ok, so I've had some time to be with this fragrance.

It starts off sweet and tangy and then comes this part I can't STAND! It goes into a tangy sour Pineapple drizzled in Honey, Sugar and rotten pineapple smell! It's the worst part of the fragrance and it comes about 5 minutes into it. After that, about 3 hours later it turns into Flowerbomb and a Forest backdrop smell. That's my favorite part. I wish I could have a longer time with the top notes, DO AWAY WITH THE MIDDLE, and go straight to the bottom notes. If I weren't in love with the top and bottom notes I would return it because the nasty part stays too long. I guess the trick will be to spray this 5 hours before I go somewhere or right before I go to sleep and hope it doesn't completely wear off.

Got to try it 2day at Macys and RiRi's first scent is definitely a winner in my book! I LOVE it! It smells very different on skin then on card so do try it on yourself when you can. On card I found it to be much more coconuty and fruity sweet. I thought I was smelling a spicier Miami Glow for a second. It's nice on card. But of course it has to smell good on skin right? And it does. It's kinda weird. It's a fruity, sour, tangy, powdery, patchouli scent. LOL! It reminds me of something but I can't put my finger on it. So annoying! I agree 100% w/ APJ that the dry down is very Flowerbombish. It's really well done and I couldn't be more happy w/ it. I hope everyone else enjoys it and it's a big big hit! Oh and I like the bottle too. Nice job Parlux & Rihanna! : )

this is strong at first....but really dries down to a very soft sweet scent...you have to allow a scent to develop on clean fresh skin...then judge a scent...ppl never allow a scent to settle in, and they judge it on the first spray....this is nice ..wish it lasted longer on me.

This STINKS on me and I really wanted to like it. It's very nauseating and strong. Everyone around me agreed. Unlike most people may think I DID allow it to mix in with my body chemistry and it was sTILL a horrible scent.

I love it!! The smells stays true when I spray it on my skin and it last.

I bought this at Macy's last week and I actually love it. Its not a heavy floral. Its sweet and fruity. When I run out I will buy this again.

smells good...better that beyonce heat i think...heat is musky.....this is fruity,warm,sweet,beachy coconuty sexy.....very nice and last all day!!! love it!..if u like sweet and fruity and warm scents this is for you! i love flowerbomb,viva la juicy,jessica simpson fancy, britney fantasy.....this is another one added to the family!!! love it!

This officially launches in Feb but my Macy's already has it. It smells like SOMETHING but I can't for the life of me make out what it is!

Upon first spray, it smells like sweet plums dancing around peaches and other fruits all in one but there's a tangyish Pineapple background to it. They're all very well blended so I can't really detect just one note. It's also a tad musky and in a way reminds me of a sweeter J.LO Glow After Dark but kinda sweeter. I've only had it for one day so I'm sure I'll write a better review but the drydown is FLOWERBOMBISH, kinda. Well done, Rihanna!

it smell good i love it! is not soft but is loud! lol but in a good way it will fade soft but your sitll smell it and everyone will too!!! love it <3

Its really interesting to see a celebrity lauching a chypre perfume, but for the notes (especially because of the coconutt) I believe this is going to be another fruty floral :P lets wait and see...
the bottle is gorgeaus, reminds me of art deco, I was not expecting something with such class coming from Riahnna to be honest. I cant wait to smell it :)
