Les Parfums de Rosine Ballerina No 4 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Delphine Lebeau. Ballerina No 4 opens with Bergamot, Pink Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Tuberose, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Ambroxan, Tolu Balsam, and Moss. Les Parfums de Rosine's Ballerina No 4 carries a Favourite verdict, a spicy-led wear.

This is a creamy, buttery tuberose bomb that splits opinions. Some find it a sensual, grown-up floral, while others dismiss it as just another 'perfumey' mainstream scent with a loud, synthetic edge. If you like your white florals thick and peachy, you're in for a treat; if you prefer delicate and nuanced, look elsewhere.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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
Also Works:
Summer Fall

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its rich, creamy tuberose character, make it a strong contender for date nights and formal events. While perhaps too 'loud' for some office environments, its alluring nature means it can still work for casual outings where you want to make a subtle, yet sophisticated, statement.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Moss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood

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

About

Opens with a fleeting spark of pink pepper, cardamom, and bergamot, quickly softening into a rich, creamy heart. Here, a buttery tuberose takes centre stage, wrapped in soft jasmine and a sweet, fleshy peach. A whisper of incense adds a subtle depth, while the base unfolds into warm sandalwood, smooth ambroxan, and a touch of moss, creating a velvety, almost suede-like finish that lingers on the skin.
