Berry-Wood Combo in Fuchsia :)

I really find these brightly colored bottles funny and successful. Let's see what the second one from the new
Les Parfums de Rosine line has to offer ... this time the pink one :)

About the scent:
Bois Fuchsia starts with zesty-fresh blackcurrants *sizzle-crackle*
Iris unfortunately doesn't want to show itself on my skin.
Next comes a strong lychee note. A little raspberry is also part of the mix.
The rose is not the main player in the scent at first but contributes to a rosy-fresh fragrance feeling.
I have the impression that the berries now receive a balsamic-fresh-green touch from the patchouli.
It also becomes woody as it develops ... but it seems a bit rough to me. The rose becomes more prominent in the base and the berries are only subtly detectable at this point. Without a fragrance pyramid, I would have guessed more towards a rose-oud combo. For a short time, everything feels a bit bitter-sour.
A dose of musk completes the base, and the berries can breathe a little again. Fortunately, the "oud-like" scent feeling fades away, and it becomes rosy again :)
Unisex? Yes!
Spring and autumn would be the time for this scent.
The longevity is just under 7 hours, and the sillage is moderate.
The bottle of Bois Fuchsia shines in the most beautiful pink and looks not elegant but very funny instead.

Even though it's not really my personal scent direction, the fragrance somehow spreads good vibes!
A berry-wood combo in fuchsia :)

Conclusion:
Juicy berries meet patchouli-musk-wood!
*balsamic-fresh-green-rosy touch*
That's not bad at all & spreads good vibes :)

Is "Fuchsia" a color or a plant???

Hello hello and a lovely evening to you, my scent enthusiasts :D
Today, I'm back with a fragrance that highlights my abysmally poor botanical knowledge once again: Bois Fuchsia by Les Parfums de Rosine, a brand primarily known for its rose scents… well, hence the term rose in the brand name :)

Fuchsias! I thought to myself, "Don Don Don," it can't be that you don't know a single plant in this world. So focus and try to remember what fuchsias were again. Then, after a few minutes of concentrated thought, the following image came to my mind: beautiful, purple or pink flowers that hang down long and look great! Then I searched for fuchsias and lo and behold: I was terribly mistaken. What I was actually thinking of were fox tails, which I had confused with the term fuchsias!

But I was far from done with my misconceptions. Because with "Fuchsia," I actually expected the scent of fuchsias in this perfume (not to mention that I don't even know what fuchsias smell like!). But no,… "Fuchsia" here only refers to the French term for fuchsia red or pink, so the fragrance name "Bois Fuchsia" actually just means "Pink Wood" or something similar, which would also explain the fragrance notes like rose, raspberry, and sandalwood in the scent pyramid…

Yes, yes, as I said, I am truly no genius, especially not in botanical matters, but at least I can do one thing as always: describe the scent here :)

The Scent:

The scent begins beautifully with sweet, fruity notes. I can actually smell lychees, which give off a nice fragrance. Normally, these fruits tend to smell rather inconspicuous, but here they are quite intense, making them easily recognizable. The other sweet fruity note is raspberry, which, in my opinion, overpowers the slightly powdery currants, although the powdery notes could also come from the iris.
Roses, of course, cannot be missing, but here the roses are somewhat weaker compared to other Les Parfums de Rosine scents, yet they smell authentic and beautiful as is customary for this brand, and if I'm not mistaken, you can also smell the stems of the roses, as there is a lovely green scent in the background.
Just a little later, the scent takes on an earthy note from the patchouli, which fits quite well with the other fragrance notes (and I say this even though I usually find patchouli somewhat out of place in fragrances because it can sometimes smell quite intense or too earthy; here, however, I find this note very well dosed).
Later, this patchouli becomes a bit more intense, but the scent overall is also softer, as the powdery notes like those from the iris keep the fragrance gentle. The roses are a bit less prominent later on, but the fruity-sweet scents remain as before. All in all, this scent has turned out very beautifully.

The Sillage and Longevity:

The projection is quite okay, not overwhelming, but still reasonably noticeable on a lady for a while, especially if you’re not standing too far away.
I also found the longevity to be quite okay at seven to eight hours.

The Bottle:

With this scent, I see the new bottle design of the brand for the first time. The bottle remains oval and plump but now has clearer lines and appears modernly elegant. It is pink, well, let's say fuchsia red, and apparently opaque, with no label on the front, but a tactile logo of the brand. The cap is black, cylindrical, and ribbed, making it completely new. The top of the cap also bears the brand's logo. I find the new bottle designs of this brand, like the old ones, very successful, but I do miss the beautiful cords and tassels of the old bottles, even though I must admit that they might not have suited the modernized bottle design.

So, Bois Fuchsia, the new fragrance from Les Parfums de Rosine, is in my opinion very pleasing and has turned out really well. The combination of patchouli and the sweet fruity notes is successful and smells beautiful and feminine.

Due to its nice projection, I think the fragrance works well as both a daytime and evening scent. You can use it for work or leisure, or even for going out, as I believe it should come across well in any case. And also seasonally, I think it actually fits all seasons, making it a nice all-rounder.

I would therefore recommend testing the fragrance. So, I have once again tested a lovely women's fragrance. While I now know so many great women's fragrances, I seem to be more critical when it comes to men's fragrances, especially regarding my own acquisition of a new scent… as a lady, I would probably have as large a fragrance collection as you freaks, no wonder, given the larger number of wonderful scents.
But at least I now know what fuchsias are and what they look like. I can only hope that I don't forget that so quickly this time :D

So then, have a lovely evening and see you next time :)

A somewhat shrill, thus somewhat artificial raspberry note (raspberry soda) with an increasingly dusty musk base: squeaky.

Caution, wild! Berry alert. Bright, radiant currants and raspberries. Sandalwood & patchouli keep the scent beautifully unpretentious. I like it.

Less funny than the notes suggest. Bitter. Powdery-woody, sour-fruity, a hint of rose, all on patch. Wear yes, buy no.

Piercing wood, bitter iris, and dark berry fruitiness cleverly united in a symbiotic way. It annoys me somehow. Patch? I smell nothing.

Very green-fresh patchouli - I didn't even know that was possible - blackcurrant and a hint of rose. Definitely unisex despite the pink bottle.

Strong scent progression, starts with a lot of red berries, then becomes increasingly woody. In the end, there's nothing left of the fruits, what a pity.
