Christian Lacroix Rouge BY AVON
CL Rouge opens with a slightly spiced, sickly fermented orange, like a very ripe, sweet orange peel just before it starts to mold. Then the attention turns to florals - a nice peony before movement to lighter, watery flowers, at which point CL Rouge just sorta peters out. CL Rouge seems built around the top notes without any regard for wear past 30 minutes.
CL Rouge is a strange & unique offering by Avon. Ironically I like it but not enough to invest in a bottle. Below average and rightly discontinued.
CL Rouge is the result of an Avon/IFF partnership. The correct name for the fragrance is Christian Lacroix Rouge BY AVON. Currently, the fragrance is mis-listed as Rouge by Christian Lacroix.
Don't get price-gouged on fleabay. Rouge was listed under $20 retail at Avon. It can often be found at buy.com or the O at a discount. Full-sized tubes of lotion & shower gel were clearanced for $2.50 each at Avon dot com.

I recall having liked this one quite a lot when I tested it some time ago--I'll have to dig out my review... Perhaps my exceedingly low expectations affected my reception? (-;
