by Rihanna, 2011, so-soA friend told me: “It's a simultaneous fusion of Deep South, Inner City, and Paris”. What it really is: a generic sweet fruity vanilla amber just like everything else out there right now. The berry/fruity notes are reminiscent of Pon Farr, but Pon Far is much more interestingly engineered (notice I did not say designed). Reb’l Fleur smells like you layered every one of the Les Heurs de Cartier range together, or just the latest Ed Hardy, Hanae Mori, Play, or whatever Sephora is flogging this summer. Les Heurs is a classy comparison, but this scent is quite generic, probably from Celebrity Generic Scent Vat #3*, if I were to guess.
Unlike most celebrity scents, this one is inoffensive. Go ahead & buy it if you’re a fan, you’ll smell fine. You’ll smell exactly like everyone else out there.
You’ll fit in perfectly.
Sprayed myself in the Macy's & took a sample card.
*Vat #1 has the Paris Hilton line. Vat #2 is the entire J-Lo oeuvre. Vat #4 is generic celebrity men’s colognes à la I Am King. Vat #5 is Drakkar/Polo/Cool Water knockoffs (see Diesel). Vat #666 (there is no #6) is the pit every Victoria’s Secret smell emanates from.
