Tresor seems to run the gamut according to reviewers. I assumed I would find it a bit polarizing, but after wearing it for a few days, it leans more toward the conventional, Fruity-Floral genre than anything. Tresor is a substantial, feminine perfume and that, in itself, will cause some to enjoy it and others to shun it.

Most opinions that I read voiced their satisfaction or dismay with the rendition of Peach and Apricot. I, on the other hand, realize a dewy rose at the very core of Tresor that is accented by fruit and floral notes. Rose is the focal point ( for me ) and all the accompanying embellishments are a bit better than I had anticipated.

Tresor opens with what I perceive as Aldehyde and Bergamot. It shimmers momentarily before revealing the percolating Rose and Fruit combination. Throughout the Intro and heart accords, Tresor flaunts its femininity, not to mention its moist Rose and Fruit collaboration.

These two stages have a commanding presence, but I never find them overwhelming or cloying. They vie for your attention and only in the base and extended drydown does Tresor transition, both in aroma and volume.

Tresor's tuning feels to me to be more classic, but not dated. Rather than casual or frivolous, this fragrance would certainly be appropriate for more meaningful wearings. The Rose-Fruit duo permeates both opening and heart before dissipating enough to permit the subtle woods and van-amber to bring this home.

Tresor is a valid feminine that would behave exceptionally well in cooler temperatures and is perhaps better suited for a woman as opposed to a girl. Sillage is good with longevity hovering around the 5 hour mark. Thumbs up from Aromi for Lancome's Tresor.
