Christine Nagel is my favorite perfumer and I hope to someday own a bottle of every one of her lovely creations so I HAD to give this perfume a try. My affection for rose-based scents is not a loyal one; while I appreciate and sometimes adore very abstract rose scents such as Stella, I'd hate to smell of an uncomplex rose water and tend to avoid simple rose soliflores.
Smelling it on my skin, it's hard to define Rose Absolue. It's rosy, yes, but it's something more. I would say it borders on gourmand but never quite crosses the line into foody territory. While Stella is more of a dark purple shade of rose, Rose Absolue is more of bright pink shade of the flower - vibrant where Stella is dark, loud where Stella is soft, and sweet and spicy where Stella is salty. I also detect just the faintest hint of fruit in RA; a powdery cherry aroma that is reminiscent of the one Christine Nagel used in Delices de Cartier. It's divine.
I purchased the purse-sized bottle to sample and will be ordering a full-size bottle when that runs out.

Honestly I don't smell patchouli here. Maybe it's just perfectly blended in you don't detect its strong note that kills anything else.
It has lasting power, good sillage, refined basenote that support the beautiful rose without sinking it. Everything is just so balanced in this scent, not a sexual scent for sure but delicately sensual nonetheless.
It swifts around me as I move, it's not a stiff scent like an armour (so many scents are like that) Thumbs up for this! Also nice layered with Voile d'ambre!

it has everyting-it is delicate and sweet but light sweet and also it gives you the feeling of innocence.
i would buy one as soon as i can


The rose is a great partner to the wine note, but it's not a fresh cut rose as found in iPF's Rosa Damascus - Yves Rocher Rose Absolute is a vase of cut rich red roses; very proper, very restrained.
There's a great base here, I'd swear it's rosewood, sandalwood, and maybe even black tea, but the listing says patchouli, which I do not detect at all.
There is no powder here - many rose scents have it, sometimes in excess, and that is truly what makes a rose fragrance so feminine. I can't exactly say that Yves Rocher Rose Absolute is masculine or unisex, but it surely isn't "frilly" nor overly sweet. It's a serious rose, and quite original.
Whatever the ingredients, undetectable tonka or unlisted woods, they provide an olfactory experience that is far greater than the pleasant price tag would let on. Shame on those high end singlefloras from boutique perfumers - Yves Rocher does it well, very very well, and they don't empty your purse to do it.
Summary: A great dark rose, rich, and especially good for folks who are not normally rose fans.

For me, its not pink and girlie perfume, its more like darker nuances of the sheets on the poster, tender and intimate.
Perfume nose for this edition is famous Christine Nagel, and I would like to make some comparations. She made one of my favourite fragrances, Miss Dior Cherie, with delicate alcohol flavour blended with patchuli on the base of the scent. Here I could feel the same combination, and same sensuality, her work of art.
Rose Absolue is an intoxicating, sweet and rich perfume, with ruler Roses in a main role. Delicious!
