by Rochas
Poupee by Rochas is a singular white floral fragrance with a distinct, slightly plastic-doll character that evokes childhood memories and vintage toy associations. It opens with a sharp, tangy pineapple note blended with fresh orange blossom and a waxy, creamy floral heart dominated by gardenia and tuberose, creating a surprisingly light and delicate bouquet despite its rich accords. The scent evolves into a soft, powdery dry down with subtle nutmeg and warmth from benzoin, amber, and sandalwood, giving it a gentle, duality—innocent yet subtly sensual. Many find it unforgettable and deeply evocative, with some describing it as a nostalgic journey to youth, while others find it overly sweet or cloying. The longevity is moderate, and the sillage is light to moderate, making it ideal for spring and summer wear, especially during daytime hours.
