    As I understand it, L'Artisan translates this to "special rose" and special it is. I generally can't wear rose fragrances despite the fact that I spend hours cultivating my large and ever growing...

    delicious crystallized flowers. but too sweet for smelling for hours. It reminds me Smith's Rosebud Salve.

    Powdery roses and violets. Very feminine, pretty, light, and sweet -- like the scent of old-fashioned cosmetic products. Gentle, quiet, and stays close to the skin. (A lighter, cleaner version of...

    L'Artisan defines Drole de Rose as "peculiar rose," although my understanding (okay I only have a few semesters of college French, but still....) is "witty" or "amusing rose." Either way,...

    Very pretty rose. There is no drama to it, it's a happy and lazy mid summer rose with bees happily buzzing around it and you swinging in a hammock, gazing at the clouds and dry grass. There are no...

    Rose potpourri and dusty powder, clotted with honey. I don't know why this didn't work for me. I like rose, I like violet, I like powder. But all the notes were just a little "off." EDIT: Was I,...

    This is a lovely rose scent and I typically don't like rose on my skin (thus the 3 lippies), but this was a nice composition of a sweet rose. I thought I liked POTL A-Maze with the...

    I like thei fruity, candied-violet, wine-cordial scented rose. This is a high recommendation from a person like me who thinks fruity florals have been overdone. This one is clear yet strong, a...

    When one applies Drole de Rose, the similarity to Frederic Malle’s Lipstick Rose is unavoidable – that is, until you try them side-by-side. I like Lipstick Rose about the same as I like this –...

    I dismissed Drole de Rose for years as another sweet, not-particularly-interesting rose-violet combo that pales in comparison to the red-lipsticked, polkadotted, patent-leathered Lucille Ball drag...

    I received a sample of this fron a fellow rose lover. While lovely when first applied, the powder element of this scent soon takes over and becomes overbearing. It is not a "clean" smelling...

    The L'Artisan house impresses me most with their packaging and their sense of humour rather than their fragrances. Drole de Rose is a very feminine scent; very typical of a pretty rose scent. It...

    I had given this a great review, but after wearing it more, I must change it. For $65/50 mls, this needs to last more than an hour. Last night, I bathed myself in it...squirted my hair, chest,...

    I really expected to like this very much, but what a hugh dissapointment. After the first spray, it smells fine: a soft blend of delicate pink roses, some cream and a hint of violets. But the...

    I think Drôle de Rose (which I think is supposed to mean something like "Special Rose")smells very fresh-floral-but-better, but I couldn't see myself wearing it much. I tried it at home and was a...

    I'm a true rose aficionado, and I hope I'll be able to add a full bottle of Drole de Rose to my collection soon. It's a rose-violet blend, very feminine and sweet, that dries down into a powdery...

    I concur with other reviewers that this is quite lovely and yet a bit dull, which is OK by me--the more exciting fragrances are fun to test but can be hard to wear in real life. I could wear this...

    I love violet scents, and on my skin, a few minutes after applying, I mainly smell violets and honey. A deep, soft, sweet honey. The honey note lasts very long on me, well after the floral notes...

    The first thing that struck me is that Drole de Rose smells more like rose-scented lipsticks than Frederic Malle Lipstick Rose. It's a dainty sweet rose sprinkled sparingly with the powder of...
