Our verdict on Rumeur: Acquired

This one's proper divisive. For some, it's a classy, clean floral, but for others, it's a harsh, old-fashioned nightmare of nail polish remover. Try before you buy, unless you're feeling adventurous.

About

Rumeur opens with a bold, almost sharp magnolia that quickly mellows into a heart of lush white florals like jasmine and lily of the valley, rounded out by a hint of sweet plum. The drydown reveals a soft, musky embrace with earthy patchouli and warm amber, creating a sophisticated and enduring floral musk. It can start out a bit rough, but given time, it evolves into a rich, powdery, and sometimes soapy experience.
