Rose Tentation is the name taken in 2024 by the fragrance Réminiscence had launched in 2016 as Patchouli n’Roses. Fabrice Pellegrin sets two roses, Centifolia and Damascena, in dialogue with the patchouli the house was built on, under a touch of lychee and a vanilla base. The juice has not changed; the packaging has.
One signed review keeps a rose that asserts itself rather than whispers, a sillage that holds through the day and a bottle judged practical.
Olfastory’s review
Le blog de Musme
In February 2017, Musme separated Rose Tentation clearly from the original Patchouli: the rose is very present there, and above all it does not apologize. The reviewer sees a floral chypre with character, whose sillage holds all day, and keeps a bottle that is sober, elegant and practical day to day, a detail she judges decisive for everyday wear.
