Description
Lubin launches the new fragrance GRISETTE inspired by young women full of life who lived in Paris in the 19th century during the Belle Epoque and worked as seamstresses. They were considered seductive, free-spirited women full of the joy of life. They lived on Montmartre and were inspiration to the artists of those times. The house of Lubin dedicated a fragrance to them, whose composition incorporates clear, lush and cheerful notes which manage to capture the essence of the beautiful and hard-working flirtatious ladies.
The composition of Grisette by Lubin opens with sunny, citrusy zests combined with luminous grapefruit and tart shades of bergamot, Bulgarian rose and Moroccan rose providing an abundance of feminine aromas. The heart of the composition highlights iris and incense, along with cedar, musk, amber and Madagascar vanilla absolute in the base.
The fragrance arrives in a flacon of the same shape as Black Jade, Gin Fizz, L de Lubin and Nuit de Longchamp as 50 and 100 ml Eau de Toilette.
Grisette was launched in 2015.

Beautiful pretty floral perfume, so European in style, it is effortless to wear! I get pretty pink Roses and peonies, they are so light and airy, blended so well with the soft sweet notes and effervescent citrus’s, like a spring garden in bloom. Perfect spring perfume, easy to wear for everyone.

starting off, i get citruses, rose, iris and soft musk. it’s like a rose in water bathed in golden light. after awhile the citruses die down and it’s primarily a soft rose with iris and musk-very soft and inoffensive. it is a very pretty scent, and would be good for work. as always, lubin is very high quality, however the scent profile itself isn’t as intriguing as some other lubin scents i have tried. still. very pretty! will keep my decant and will wear it when i want something subtle, pretty and uncomplicated.

I really do not know why, but in Warsaw I loved it. It was as described before: a bottle of joy. Energy, happiness. Amazing. And now, that I live in Germany, all I feel is some incense, and I barely detect it after a while. There is no more intensity, no more joy. It is heavy and rough. What changed? Is it really the air?

Pretty. Inoffensive. Meh. A pretty but fairly generic fruity floral with musky rose supported by some very quiet citrus. Seems a bit expensive for what it is.

Bottled joy. Cheerful, sparkling, youthful, carefree. Something sharp for my throat and nose. Maybe same aldheydes? I smell pepper. My nose is not educated. This fragrance is the opposite of drama. Not a masterpiece but very well made. Perfect for summer if you don’t like citrus or fresh classic cologne.
Very feminine, flirty with a touch of elegance.
Beautifully french in an young and modern way even if it may describe the Belle Epoque.
Really one of the most happy fragrance I ever tested.
It’s by Lubin and you can find his chic touch.

I love the individual elements of this fragrance but, on me at least, they fail to come together into a cohesive whole. The opening is sharp and bright with citrus tones that evolve into quite a lovely rose, while the gorgeous undertones of cedar and musk start to shine through, but for a long time the two elements – the citrusy rose and the woodsy base – sit side by side without blending together into any sort of true accord, as though there were something missing to tie them all together.

How interesting is that the bottle cap of Lubin’s Grisette sets the tone of the perfume perfectly? The color is light Victorian pink, not pure pink, suggesting that it’s for young women who are vibrant, optimistic but a little bit reserved; it’s translucent, not some heavy opaque jade stones, suggesting that the scent is light, darling and a little whimsical. And so it is, Grisette, a simple but not non-sophisticated feminine perfume that is fun to wear casually in spring or summer.
If the scent progression of Grisette were a four-hour-long day, it begins with a sunny morning and a small glass of fresh grapefruit juice that is faintly sweet but not bitter. Quickly in the afternoon, the scent of the pink roses and cedar woods rise up under the hot sun. As the sun sets, wispy incense and soft musks flow through the ambery sky; the remaining glory of the day is reflected on a small river of ISO-E Super running through the Victorian-esque city.
Grisette actually reminds of Le Labo’s Benjoin 19, which costs three times as much, but the rose and grapefruit in Grisette make it a much more worthwhile and not-so-pretentious perfume.
