Oriflame Volare is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Fabrice Pellegrin. Volare opens with Violet Leaf, Galbanum, and Pear, settles into a heart of Rose, Peony, and Gardenia, and dries down to a base of Leather, Cedar, and Praline. Oriflame's Volare carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Volare is a divisive rose fragrance, with many getting a dated, synthetic quality while others enjoy its sweet, powdery character. It's often compared to Lancome Tresor, offering a more delicate take, but be warned: some claim it needs to "macerate" to truly shine.

About

Volare opens with a green, slightly tart burst from violet leaf and galbanum, brightened by a hint of pear. The heart swells with a romantic, powdery blend of rose, peony, and gardenia, evoking a classic floral bouquet. As it dries, a soft leather accord emerges, grounded by warm cedar and a touch of sweet praline, creating a sophisticated and somewhat vintage finish.
