Rose Rouge, created by Julien Rasquinet for Van Cleef & Arpels in 2018, is a sweet, woody rose with a cocoa-tinged base, and it is rated highly by those who have reviewed it. Sweetness and woods lead equally, and a minority of people notice spice, flowers, resin and citrus.

Black currant, bergamot and pink pepper open with a tart, fruity and lightly peppery sparkle. The heart pairs rose with raspberry, a jammy, velvety red-fruit rose, given an earthy, dry edge by vetiver. The base brings vetiver again with musk, patchouli, cacao pod, vanilla and benzoin, a warm, chocolatey and resinous sweetness grounded by earthy woods.

Wearers are split between moderate and long-lasting wear, and the trail is mostly moderate. It is voted for autumn and winter and worn by day and night almost equally. Worn by anyone, it suits office days, dinners and cool-weather evenings, for people who like a modern, gourmand rose with depth.
