Christian Lacroix: Rouge, Eau De Parfum

****Christian Lacroix Rouge**** I always love trying new perfumes so when i was flicking through my avon book i decided to try this one. **Packaging** Box-This comes in a red box with a nice pattern on it. I would say that the packaging is quite sturdy. Bottle-Again a lovely red colour with Christian lacroix written clearly on the front. **Smell** This is described as being "a burst of citrus and spices unveils a floral heart wrapped in the most sensual cashmere woods" . I think this is accurate, this perfume has defiantly got a floral smell tonight. I would say that this is very feminine/womanly -not for ...  Read the complete review

Christian Lacroix ~ Rouge ~ Eau De Parfum My local Avon representative gave me a sample of Christian Lacroix Rouge perfume to sample in September last year. I fell in love with the scent of the perfume almost instantly and decided to purchase a bottle of it; I love the scent that much that I have already polished off three bottles of it and have a fourth one on the way. The fragrance was launched in September 2007 in partnership with Avon; Avon currently sell Rouge for the price of £18 for a 50ml bottle. There is also a male version available too and this is called Noir which smells just as nice as the female version. As you can see from the ...  Read the complete review

I am a big perfume fan, but am seldom persuaded to try out something new, much preferring to stick to my old favourites! This was changed recently though, as I came across a lovely perfume from Avon, which was brought to my attention when I was giving out some testers to some of regular customers! The perfume in question is the Avon Christian Lacroix Rouge Eau de Parfum spray and I was so impressed by the fragrance that I ended up using some of the little testers myself, eventually giving in and purchasing the full-sized bottle of the perfume. This cost me £16 for a 50ml bottle, although the usual brochure price of the fragrance is £20. The ...  Read the complete review

It's guaranteed that every Birthday and Christmas my mother buys me and my sisters Avon perfume. Some of them have been nice, some OK, and some not to my taste. The first one I have received and really loved though, is Christian Lacroix Rouge. ~The Bottle~ Call me superficial, but I think, where perfume is concerned, the bottle is almost as important as the fragrance inside and I love having lots of beautiful perfume bottles on my dressing table. This deep red bottle with it's black swirling pattern looks a lot more expensive than it is, and I think it has a sort of French, Moulin Rouge-style sexy glamour to it - it's certainly not a bottle I ...  Read the complete review

With Mothers day approaching I was looking for some inspiration. Perfume is always a nice treat for my mum and she likes to try different ones from time to time. I had a copy of the current Avon catalogue and she'd spotted the Christian Lacroix Rouge bottle in there and the description sounded quite nice. I was lucky to be able to order a sample before I committed to buying the full size bottle as it's always nice to test whether a perfume 'sits' well on your skin (most CK perfumes smell like washing up liquid on me which is a real shame). The perfume has been developed by Laurent Le Guernec and Carlos Benaim who are renowned perfumers and ...  Read the complete review
