Very heavy, headache inducing

To me this is a strong perfume, probably because of the chypre. It’s all about floral and rather complicated to my nose. I honestly can’t discern between the Roses and the bergamot. Smells so 1990’s to me.

The perfumes lays heavy on me. One squirt is plenty, and almost too much for me to handle. Unfortunately for me I bought blindly and have a full size bottle that I’m trying to wear every so often with hopes I begin loving it (or standing it).

It’s headache producing for an hour. I want to love it, but it’s such a difficult fragrance for me. I have an aversion to oak moss, and it’s detected here. However, after an hour things start to slow down. The florals start coming out, not so harshly, allowing me to breathe again and enjoy the fragrance.

Having said all of this, I wouldn’t have bought this perfume had I known I’d experience the discomforts of this scent bomb, but it’s manageable after a couple hours.

Contemporary rose fragrance

I decided to test out Idôle after trying out one of its flankers (Aura). I love going through originals and their flankers to determine the difference between them and see how they have evolved (and the thought process behind it all).

Like others have already said, it's a nice citrusy, fresh rose, but there's not much more to it. I don't want to say it's basic, since it sounds insulting, but there's not much more depth to it. Idôle is perfect if you want to wear a feminine rose fragrance and not much else (which is totally fine). Since it is almost one-note, I'm pretty sure you could layer it with other rose products to add rose power to the scent or try and experimenting it with other perfumes for nice layering. It's not heavy or loud, it's not powdery and it's a nice floral with a hint of sweetness (probably from the jasmine).

I'm glad I have bought a 10ml travel size because, although it is nice, I don't think I will be going for a full bottle. I've seen better interpretations of roses out there (I prefer the flanker Aura).

Glowy fruity rose floral

I usually don’t like rose, but it turns out I just don’t like it when it’s dusty or the main note in a scent.
This perfume has a juicy mix of pears and roses, and there’s a strong vanilla accord that I can smell on the shirt I sprayed for six days after throwing it in the dirty laundry. Maybe I’m talking out of nowhere, but I feel like the scent kind of emanates a clean skin aura that makes you smell freshly washed and ultra feminine.
This is a lovely perfume for any people who want to smell sweet and clean.
It’s also not cloying to me.
However, it might be too strong for an office with its insane longevity and sillage, unless you sprayed only once, very lightly.

Stunning

Such a beautiful fragrance; an extremely elegant white floral and rose that's clean, paired with a vanilla bourbon base that is *very* lowkey yet pulls it all together.

I think this is a fragrance almost any woman regardless of age can wear as long as their attitude is graceful and feminine. I absolutely love this one.

Once again I have learned something!

Many who already know me here know that I love the Lancome scents!) Especially the la nuit tresor line:) I was very excited about idols and was looking forward to testing them even more!:) I was also able to get to know and test idols through a perfume sample. Admittedly I am still extremely unsure what my opinion on this fragrance is! It also reminds me a little of Comme une Evidence L'Eau de Parfum by Yves Rocher ( But only very discreet!). This time I had decided to test idols with my mother because I know from my grandfather that he doesn't like flowery scents and that he would only say bad or boring... And I think I would have made progress with that and nobody here...My mother, on the other hand, likes it now and then flowery and fresh:) (which I can't really say about myself either:D) I and my mother had made us chic because we wanted to go out together, she said we could both apply a little bit of the scent and then we can see in the course of the day how it develops so. I thought it was a good idea!:) So I sprayed myself two, and she sprayed herself three to D. Something I have to say about the H+S is the bomb! One perceives then extremely strongly and clearly... I don't know any other Lancome now either;))

So I will now simply describe how it developed on my skin and on those of my mother:)...

On my mother's skin:
With her, the fragrance was much sweeter and softer than with me, I think. I smelled a very beautiful and pleasant light, powdery but nevertheless refreshing feminine rose note*-* Also bergamot was clearly perceptible with her, especially when spraying on, but then the note became lighter and more discreet... What I've felt so much more attached to! But I could also smell the pear most intensively from my mother. It wasn't an artificial or stabbing pear note!
Much more a juicy and sweet pear where you want to bite the person in the wrist: D musk gave the fragrance the certain something I can not describe so! All in all she liked the scent very well which I could understand well!:) ( no wonder if it smells so good with her!) She gave the scent 8 out of 10 points...:) Also I find that, the very beautiful and special smells with her on the skin:)))

Now I'm describing how that smells on my skin...

On my skin...:
Alsoooo where am I supposed to start... something I must say however!.... On my skin it didn't smell as great as on my mother's skin...:((( Already when I sprayed it on I could smell an unpleasant mossy slightly sour note...:(( Which unfortunately wasn't such a nice start for me! But well, you can't have everything in life! The rose note... that was personally too penetrating for me, which has become soapier and more piercing... Had I wished for a more pleasant rose (on my skin):( The pear note was the worst in the whole fragrance! It was extremely synthtic and penetratingly sweet, a pity I think! Since she was sooo beautiful with my mother!...:( The bergamot on the other hand was more bearable and more pleasant. That took the synthetic sweet and refreshed for fragrance course:))) Which became more pleasant for my nose:)) Nevertheless, I have noticed that this scent is not for me! And once again I have learned how different scents can be for every human being!:))) But even here I have to stress that the scent is not bad! But not the latest! Nevertheless, I think that it is better to test the fragrance before and then buy it! Since that wasn't soo beautiful on my skin I give idols 5 out of 10 points.

As already mentioned, H+S is very, very good! Idols kept with my mother and also with me all day long. Which is very rare in fresh/floral fragrances. I hope the commentary/text is well written and accurate because I put a lot of effort into it but also liked to write from the bottom of my heart:)❤
