About This Perfume
Robert Piguet Calypso smells like powdery rose wrapped in suede and warm spice. It opens with geranium and mandarin orange, moves into rose, Bulgarian rose and orris root and settles on suede, patchouli and amber. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, fall and winter and is a daytime scent. A good pick for date nights. Released in 2010.
In the community's experience it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something floral and powdery for date nights.
- Sample first if: rose is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike fresh spicy fragrances.
Around $145.
