About This Perfume
Think rosy florals with pear, soft powdery sweetness: that is Grès Cabotine Rose. It opens with cherry blossom, pear and mandarin orange, moves into peony, jasmine sambac and mimosa and settles on frangipani, vetiver and sandalwood. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de toilette is best in spring and summer and is a daytime scent. A good pick for casual days, the office and date nights. Released in 2003.
Wearers report that it lasts a solid half day on skin, and stays close to the skin.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something floral and romantic for casual days.
- Sample first if: floral is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you want a scent other people notice from across the room.
Around $17.
