8:40 – It smells like…furniture? A couch in a clean vintage shop. I’m confused by this. A watery rose-coriander open. Not really picking up the saffron right away. Super basic for now. Let’s see where this goes.
8:50 – I regret putting this on, which is rare for me. Even if I don’t like something, it’s usually more about the experience. This is making me straight up unhappy. The vetiver is asserting itself in all it’s masculinity, but coming off as a creepy dude watching women leave the bathroom.
10 – Vetiver, coriander, and a musky patchouli. The rose is barely there and the saffron seems to drift in and out as a discordant note. Could be worse, but it’s 100% not for me.

Spicey rose,a little bit confused with a patchouly drydown that makes wonder “that’s all?”.Forgettable.

Like many others I thought, how can this be for women? Beautiful masculine scent! But wait 30 to 40 minutes… then the florals win, and this becomes a surprising, moreish, sophisticated blend which a woman can wear day or night. Like all their other scents, superb quality and good longevity. I love surprises! Must be tried. My nose loved the stuff x

Pink tea rose with cool, soapy coriander. Then, something softly sweet – vanilla?
I didn’t like it at first because of the coriander, which I thought was cold, soapy, masculine. But I have revisited my sample, spraying it on skin rather than paper, and the rose and vanilla came out to balance the coriander. Now I find it strangely compelling. It’s a refreshing change from the sickly-sweet samples of designer fragrances I’ve been given recently by sales assistants at the department store.

“Eau…Not So Suave” ***
This is an eau?
As a matter of fact, it is, if you think of eau de rose, an ancient arabian recipe for skin’s youth.
But, of course, this is from Parfum d’Empire, a house that always delivers some twist on their perfumes, and here you will take with your eau the raspberry over the base chyprée.
This house has great perfumes. This is just nice.

Opens very strong and powerful, spicy, lots of coriander, also pepper, a briny dirty musk and a bit of fruits. I also pick up aldehydes. The fruits become stronger and saffron joins the party. The drydown is mostly rose, musk and moss notes that are slightly dusty.
Sillage is moderate, longevity moderate to long.
The rose never really warms up on my skin and becomes slightly sour, which is amped by the fruity notes. The opening reminds me of Musc Tonkin by the same house. I smell the same briny dirty musk. This scent isn’t really my thing, it becomes slightly dusty leathery, almost musty. I will save this sample for summer, to see how it works out when it is warmer. Right now, it is not working for me.

For women?? This really should be sold as unisex. Honestly, it feels extremely masculine to me. I detect no fruits. This is a dapper, straight from the barber shop, freshly shaved man. He is stylish and confident, he can pull off rose. Especially this lovely rose drowning in saffron and coriander. Super uplifting. Decent sillage. Great longevity. The bottle is elegant.

Rose fragrance lovers definitely have to check this one out.
It’s all about rose: fresh, aromatic, spicy, a bit sweet. It’s elegant and not shy. Very well composed fragrance!
andrey641306 – :
As said, strong opening. Very sharp lemonpeel & coriander. Fades into pepper, rose and small puffs of coriander & vanilla. I get no peach.raspberry or musc.
212121 – :
Very qualitative stuff, strong, multidimensional and naturally smelling.
The opening is a bit too sharp for my senses, I instantly get lots of oakmoss, which isn’t my favorite accord in perfumery, and I also smell earthy patchouli, although both notes are supposed to show up in the base.
However, both oakmoss and patchouli calm down in 15-20 minutes time and the sweet nature of Eau Suave unfolds, with pepper, patchouli and moss only framing the fruits and the rose.
Unlike my dear fellow Fragranticans, I think that Eau Suave is very sweet. In a tasteful way, but still, very sugary.
Sillage and longevity are both spectacular.

Rose isn´t particularly a note I die for in a fragrance. What usually deters me is its pungent (sometimes to the point of being suffocating!) flowery-soapy smell which has a nasty tendency to dominate all other components. However, there´s a limited number of perfumes containing a rose note that I do appreciate. “Eau Suave” by Parfum d´Empire is one of them. Beware all rose-haters: this is also a full-on rose fragrance. In spite of this fact, the note displays an enchanting spicy-fruity character. “Eau Suave” is supposed to evoke the smell of a rose garden. Well, I´d be more than delighted to while away the time in a garden exuding this kind of aroma.
I´m not sure I´m ready to purchase a full bottle of “Eau Suave”, but, at the same time, I have to confess that the more I test it, the more I succumb to its rose-y allure. Good job, Mr Corticchiato!

What is it about ES that is, within minutes of application, so worn-in and comforting? It reminds me of throwing on an old shirt to find that it has traces of scent from the last time I wore it. It has the appealing note, in the nicest possible way, of dirty laundry, used bedding. I’m not experienced or sensitive enough to be able to separate the threads of the laundry/bedding phenomenon into individual notes, but there are many earthy, sensual notes present – saffron, coriander, oak moss, patch, musk. The vanilla is very, very gentle.
Beautiful composition with a timeless feeling. Not ‘unisex’ (I don’t like this word) but both masculine and feminine in balance. Not my usual sort of thing, but very compelling.

Dirty and spicy rose “soured up” with bowl of fruits. This seems a very mature rose perfume, it smells extremely sensual, as said before – Dirty. Might as well be worn to a boudoir of a fancy 19th century madame.
The rose here is very cold, sour and earthy. The fruits here does not add any sweetness at all, but they do tend to be very sour on my skin, which I would normally dislike, but here it fits perfectly. The “dirty base” on my skin is mostly made from oakmoss which on my skin is very noticeable.
As with all perfumes from Parfum d’Empire this also is a very high quality product, very rich and natural smelling.
I have yet to decide if there is a place for such a dirty rose in my fragrance wardrobe, but it is surely worth a try.

I can’t get enough of this fragrance. Let me bathe in it. Feminine? a bit, but I’m a guy and I love it too!
jrj088elipseskism – :
Why for women??? 🙂 I wear it as a man, and fits on my suit. Very good scent!
pako862008 – :
I was so ready to give this up do to the strong spicy start . could not smell anything else but musky coriander and dirty spices. was so ready to rubb it off , but somehow new there would be a reward.. the rose had to kick in at some point. a warm slightly spicy Rose in the drydown . Almost like a taifh rose . it is very feminin and warm. i cant seperate the berrys and fruits , but they lingers in there to make it slightly softer and more wearable to me. the vanilla also comes forth in the drydown but very subtle and not very strong , just a hint to warm and sweeten it up
This remind me a little bit off A.Maze People off the labyrinths.
This is a grown up Rose , seductive and comforting..
im so glad i got to try this

another D’Empire I love

just lovely

The more I test this the more I love it..it is a deep spicy rose with wonderful sillage, I compare it with Voleur de Roses and cannot choose.. they re both rosey, spicey soft grown up and lovely roses but I think I go for this one..maybe it s the saffron, this goes so well with the rose and the peach, for me it is a good gourmandy rose. It is not an innocent rose, it is dard and sexy…I go for a full bottle:)

I like to smell rose perfume, but compound – if roses take a stand not solo, but with spice or with fruits or with musk. In Eau Suave are: mature, dark roses, juicy raspberries, comely currants, coriander, pepper, saffron pepper, musk. These notes fine connect. Scent is dinamic and also very elegant, very feminine, expressive, magic. It remember a bit Safran Troublant, but is more intense and as write Parisa – is very lasting with great sillage. I have second bottle this unusually femine, very originale Eau Suave.

Wonderful grown up spicey rose. Fruits don`t make it sweet. Very intense and long lasting scent with great sillage. Must have for rose lovers
