Armand Basi 2011 EDP
Rose Glacee
Armand Basi Rose Glacee is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Françoise Caron. Rose Glacee opens with Lemon, Grapefruit, and Apple, settles into a heart of Taif Rose, Cinnamon, and Apricot, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Musk, and Amber. Armand Basi's Rose Glacee carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.
This one's a proper divisive scent. While some find it a delightful, dewy rose with a fresh, fruity kick, others are left with a bitter taste, literally, or a frankly musty, basement-like rose. Not a safe blind buy, as skin chemistry plays a huge role here.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Best Occasions
Its fresh and clean profile, coupled with often average sillage, makes it suitable for casual wear and even office use, as many reviewers indicate. However, the varied longevity observations mean it might not last through an evening out, and the 'icy' rose isn't particularly formal.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this
