Affinessence Rose-Reglisse is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Nathalie Lorson. Rose-Reglisse opens with Star Anise, settles into a heart of Rose, Violet, and Litchi, and dries down to a base of Sweet Notes. Affinessence's Rose-Reglisse carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This Rose-Reglisse is a divisive one. Some find it a fleeting, generic disappointment, while others adore its unique gothic rose and liquorice blend, especially in colder weather. Be warned, performance is a common complaint.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Winter

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its moderate projection and often-cited poor longevity make it suitable for close encounters like dates, but less ideal for formal settings or sports. The unique blend of rose and liquorice gives it a versatile casual appeal, though it might be too polarising for a strict office environment.

About

Rose-Reglisse opens with a cool, almost icy hit of star anise, quickly giving way to a floral heart where a dominant rose note is softened by delicate violet and a hint of sweet litchi. The dry down introduces a gourmand accord, which can lean anywhere from a subtle sweetness with a trace of anise to a full-on raspberry pie vibe, depending on your skin chemistry. It's a journey from sharp spice to floral elegance, finishing with a comforting sweetness.
