Clea Fragrance Reviews

Clea is a beautiful, warm sweet perfume. The sandalwood and vetiver give it a very slight woody touch. The florals are wrapped in sweet amber and vanilla, creating a very smooth, rich formula. Patchouli is light, but gives Clea staying power. Definitely a skin scent, Clea is soft and delicate....very ladylike.

Lasting power is more than 10 hours. Projection is moderate to soft. Really beautiful totally feminine fragrance. A truly lovely floral classic.

For those who say it remindes them of Chanel5,I say if you are a serious user of 5, and wore it for sometime,you will not say so,Clea is another melody

When I was little girl, I always sniffing my grandmamas parfyme bottles, she had large collection cosmetics, what a little girls dream :) Im pretty sure, that she got Clea, becose when I smelled it now, Im back to my granmamas place, and I can remember that beautiful and loving old lady, who was one of the greatest people I ever known. Clea is not my type of fragrance, but I have a bottle, becose sometimes I want to be close to my grandmama, and this scent will always bring her back to me. Thank you Clea.

I remember this scent from my teenage years. My best friend back then and I used to get ready together in her room to go out. Putting on make up and perfume... She had this perfume, but she never really liked it a lot, but I truly adored it, so I would always be using this whenever I got the chance.

I bought it based on the reviews here, and I must say that it is really an amazing fragrance! It doesn't remind me of any other fragrance, it is truly unique! It is classic, but not old fashioned! Unfortunately it doesn't last long on my skin! but I still love it!

edit:
it ends up too sour on my skin!

This was my mom's, but I used it, as well. So this was my first perfume. Good memories, tender, sweet. Certainly not for young girls that I was at the time, but I liked it very much. I will buy it someday, just in purpose of bringing memories back.

I was a bit afraid of blind buying this one, because of the flowery aspect.

But I`m so glad I did! I get no flowers in this at all.

It smells just like Dove bar soap and Nivea lotion... soft and smooth, no harsh edges. Clean, warm, womanly, comforting... Not out dated at all, even though it has a classic feel to it.

Smells way more expensive than it is!

Very nice price, and the bottle is stunning.

I highly recommend this.

Nice creamy and bitter gardenia,
so lovely perfume! It's so much better than new generation's artificial perfumes. I had a fortune to find Clea in charity chop with ridiculous price.
Longlasting (8 hours on me edt!!!),strong,classic perfume for who loves flowers.Remands me a lot Organza.

I sooooo agree with the three reviewers beneath me. Clea is a true masterpiece!! It might be the only Yves Rocher 'vintage' that survived decades!! Knowing Yves Rocher discontinues almost EVERY perfume (just a matter of time), that is an accomplishment for Clea. It seems that people never ever get tired of this masterpiece.
And rightly so..

I like this very much.
Many reviewers seem to think it smells like Chanel
n° 5, and I agree.
But as much as I dislike N°5, I love Clea !
I find it a lot more subtle and elegant and, unlike some I actually think it is more modern and less "loud" than other more famous - and more expensive !- aldehydic fragrances.
The thing is I associate strong aldehydic scents with haughty, upper class French women who used to wear them during the seventies.
I was only a teenager then, but I remember how the powerful aldehydes or chypre notes that surrounded them always seemed to remind me I was just some kind of peasant.
Clea is much more understated, but manages to be just as classy and sophisticated.
The amber is very noticeable, a bit too much for my liking since I am no fan of amber, but it does make the fragrance less formal than, say, Hermes Caleche.

I call it my "little black dress " scent, because I know I can reach for it on almost any occasion without wondering whether it is appropriate : I just know it will be.
And it is one of the very few fragrances that agree with my skin chemistry during the colder season, with very good lasting power.
I wouldn't wear it in summer or spring though, at least not during the day as I find it to be a warm, intimate kind of fragrance.

I don't understand why some people use the word 'Granny'????? Granny smell ? I know a lot of older women who smell delices, Sometimes i asked what they wearing and it surprise me often. Well now to the point of Clea :) i like it a lot, it is not overpowering, not dusty or too loud. It turns on me in a beautyful vanille, woody and flowering fragrance. I often get manny compliments. Well done YR!

What a beauty of a scent this is: for lovers of Classic scents look no further. For lovers of jasmine and aldehydes, take a sniff and enjoy. For lovers of rich florals, mind you should like this like no other. THE test when it comes to' fragrance is: how much you find yourself willing to' inhale. Myself? Until it hurts, such a rounded And well blended juice this is. I feel replenished with incensey jasmine, I feel the flowery drydown of First, the aldehydic texture of Madame Rochas And the classy touch of Soir de Lune, yes SdL itself. And there is a burnt, incense quality to' it that makes it modern still. I really like this perfume, I feel it rich And confortabile, classy And modern at the same time. Again I say lovers of classics please give this a chance as it is a hidden masterpiece.

I bought this purely because I liked the name Clea, and for the lovely bottle. As for the juice, its okay, nothing I can get super excited about.
It says oriental floral but seems more like floral aldehyde to me, nothing particularly oriental.
It is in the same family as Je Reviens by Worth and there is a heavier, mustier quality to this fragrance which I can either tolerate or dislike, just depending on the time in my life when I choose to wear it. There are other YR frags I prefer above this one.

For me this is too sweet and kind of remainds me about a soap my granny used when I was young. I found no harmony in this fragrance and did not like it.

Nice ,sweet and not offensive at all. maybe a little bir oldfashioned-smelling ,and maybe a bit too sweet and without that edge that makes a scent stand out. But after all,for the prize - enjoyable ,atleast for more mature women.

Classy, floral and ultra feminine. Like someone else mentioned, it's a bit like Chanel no 5. There's something sparkly about it. Not my favourite YR fragrance, but it's definitely worth a sniff.

I remember this scent as one of my fave from Yves Rocher many years ago. I didn't wear it very often, but I mostly reached for it when I wanted to smell good and refined. It's quite complex and a typical floral-aldehydical, but not so old lady stuff!

Didn't expect to like this one at all, but I received a test bottle of it, and oh ... yummy much? And now I see that it's an oriental floral. On me, the amber, vanilla and rose I think, come out the most.

I know Yves Rocher usually gets a bad rep, but if you like subtle oriental florals, I think you should at least try this one.

Floral-aldehyde.

Advertised with slogans: 'Classic certainty', 'Warranty of a good taste'.

Elegant, classic, eternal.
It reminds No 5 Chanel with its character.

For emotionally mature women, who respect tradition and modest, but sophisticated style.
