Trussardi Delicate Rose is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Nathalie Lorson. Delicate Rose opens with Kumquat, Yuzu, and Bamboo, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Lotus, and Apple, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Musk, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Trussardi's Delicate Rose carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This "Delicate Rose" is divisive. Some find it a beautifully fresh, clean, and understated aquatic rose, perfect for sunny days. Others are let down by its muted floral character and perceive a harsh, sometimes even cheap, synthetic quality with poor performance.

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.

Best For:

Also Works:
Date

Its generally soft sillage and 'fresh out of the shower' clean accords make it ideal for office and casual wear, where it won't overwhelm. While some find it elegant enough for a date or even a wedding, its aquatic character doesn't quite suit formal events. It's also suitable for light sport due to its refreshing nature.

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

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Delicate Rose opens with a bright, zesty burst of yuzu and kumquat, softened by a crisp, green bamboo note, creating an immediate sense of fresh air and dewy lightness. The heart unfolds into a clean, watery lotus and a whisper of tender rose, balanced by a hint of juicy apple and subtle jasmine. It's a transparent floral character, underpinned by a soft, comforting base of musky woods, sandalwood, and cedar, offering a gentle, clean skin feel.
