My favourite flanker of La Nuit: if I had to choose one, it’s this. I’m fascinated by the lychee, and mixed with raspberry and rose, it’s what stands out the most. I love the sweetness of the lychee tempered with the acidity of the raspberry; the pepper balances it perfectly and the flowers wrap everything up. As it dries, the patchouli becomes much more noticeable than the vanilla (the opposite of the usual), and I like it. It’s not a bitter patchouli; the other notes give it a sweet touch without being cloying. It’s clearly sweet, but not overwhelming, a beautiful balance between the acidic and the bitter so the gourmand aspect is enjoyable. Longevity and sillage are excellent, as with the whole collection. I’ll try it on skin now that I have it dry.

Smells very good, I find it a little sweeter than the original, recommended.

I tried it today; in my opinion, it’s highly recommended. The fruits unite on that vanilla base and the result is delicious. It’s sweet but not intensely sweet. Just in case, I would lower the patchouli a bit. For lovers of vanilla orientals, it’s a good option.

I tried it today and it is highly recommended. The fruits blend with that vanilla base and the result is delicious. It is sweet but not intensely sweet. If I had to nitpick, I would rate the patchouli slightly lower. For lovers of oriental vanilla perfumes, it is a good option.

Finally, I have secured this marvel. Of all the flankers of La Nuit Tresor, it is my favourite alongside A la Folie, followed by Nude. It is sweet and, although it shares DNA with the original, it suits any season and moment. It is a chameleon that enchants those who smell it; undoubtedly, it is love at first sniff, which rarely happens to me. The main notes are that characteristic Lancôme rose, sweet raspberries with lychee, jasmine, delicious vanilla and a very fine patchouli. Totally recommended; as soon as I can find another, I will buy a refill.

Finally, I got hold of this wonder. It’s my favourite among all the La Nuit Tresor flankers, alongside A la Folie, followed by Nude. It’s a sweet scent that, although it shares DNA with the original, adapts perfectly to any season and moment. It’s a versatile perfume that charms anyone who smells it; I fall in love at first sniff only a few times. The main notes are the characteristic rose of Lancôme, with sweet raspberries, lychee and jasmine flower, a delicious vanilla and a very fine patchouli. Totally recommended; as soon as I can find another, I’ll buy a refill 💖.

It’s a sweet perfume without being overwhelming, very wearable in cold weather. It has a warm touch and is balanced between all its notes; on my skin, the raspberry and vanilla stand out a lot, two of my favourites, so I enjoy it whenever I use it. Like all Lancôme perfumes, it has good performance: for me, it lasts between 6 and 8 hours and the projection is good. The performance is modifiable according to the sprays. I recommend it and would buy it again, it’s one of my favourites 😍.

Excellent, I take off my hat to this Lancôme flanker. It’s a very well-made vanilla oriental, one of those that lasts forever. I find it quite similar to Kenzo L’elixir, but this is more fruity and less powdery. I like how the rose is worked: from my point of view, it’s a rose in a vanilla syrup. You’re going to stay with me, Caresse de Roses. If I can find a refill, I’ll buy it!

This afternoon I tested La Nuit Tresor EDP and now I have bought Caressé. They smell very similar: the classic EDP smells of intense coffee, while Caressé starts as a cappuccino with raspberries and then develops with time. Both are delicious; they are not new scents but I notice them much better than La Vie Est Belle, better than the Black Opiums and more elegant than Poison Girl EDP. I mention all of them because I notice they are similar.

Guuuuaaaauuuu! I bought it today. It’s expensive, equally it’s pricey, almost 5,000 pesos for the 50 ml, but it’s worth it, it’s beautiful and elegant.

I tried the La Nuit Tresor EDP in the afternoon and now I’ve bought the Caresse. To my nose, they smell very similar; the classic EDP now feels like intense coffee and the Caresse remains in the cappuccino stage with raspberries. I’ll comment later on how this one develops over the hours. Both are delicious; they aren’t new scents but I notice them much better than La Vie Est Belle in all its editions, better than the Black Opiums and more elegant than Poison Girl EDP. I mention all these because I notice them as similar.

The truth is, for me, it doesn’t resemble the classic La Nuit Tresor. What stands out is that it’s sweet but different, with personality, and with it, I receive compliments every time I use it. This La Nuit Caresse doesn’t speak to me, it’s another perfume of the bunch that gets lost among so many sweet ones like LVEB or Black Opium, etc. That said, good sillage and longevity, as with all from the Lancôme house.

Almost bought it blindly based on the reviews, but luckily I had a tester. The opening was super citrus with a heavy jasmine note (I prefer it subtle, but this was overwhelming). It lasted about 20 minutes like that before the sweetness I was looking for emerged, but the jasmine was so persistent I couldn’t enjoy it. I felt disappointed. Later I found Tresor Lumineuse and what a love! If you like sweet but not too floral, this is for you. You can smell the praline at first, the vanilla lingers, and the Damask rose softens it. It’s refined, cheerful, and delicious. I’ve moved past Caresse; Lumineuse is my life.

Much more versatile than the original EDP and cheaper. Honestly, I loved it. A friend recommended it and convinced me; I didn’t like the classic much and wouldn’t have discovered it without their help. I love spraying it on my hair and clothes; it moves beautifully and projects a lot, especially in the first few hours. However, after six hours it’s very skin-scented, which surprised me as Lancôme scents usually last longer. Still, it lasts longer than the classic and is more versatile. If it lasted even longer, it would be perfect. The bottle, needless to say, is a beauty, one of the best out there.

It’s the budget version of the classic. One of my favourites.

I bought it reduced at a very good price, blindly, and honestly, I adored it. I’ve just opened it and the first impression was an exquisite, fine, fruity aroma. Luckily I grabbed the 75 ml. That said, the opening is strong. I’ll expand my review once I have more experience with the perfume. A delight.

To me, Tresor La Nuit Caresse is more elegant than the traditional version. The classic smells quite common, whereas Caresse has a more pleasant creaminess.

I bought it by mistake, thinking it was the traditional Tresor La Nuit, but when I opened the box I saw a very pale rose and upon smelling it, I fell in love. It smells warm, acidic and hypnotic, perfect for winter and night. I imagine an elegant and subtle woman dressed in black, with long nails and high heels, enchanting everyone around her. It is worthy of collection. The packaging is beautiful. In terms of longevity, it is softer and lasts about six hours on my skin, but it does not give me a headache or bother me like others do.

I bought it by mistake, thinking it was the traditional Tresor La Nuit, but when I opened the box I saw a very pale rose and upon smelling it… I loved it! It smells warm, acidic, and hypnotic. It’s perfect for winter and evening wear. I imagine a woman who is elegant, subtle, delicate, dressed in black, with long nails and high heels, enchanting everyone around her. It’s worth collecting. The packaging is gorgeous. As for longevity, it’s softer and lasts less, about six hours on my skin, but it doesn’t give me a headache or bother me like others do.

Beautiful fragrance. I don’t know what’s prettier, the bottle or the contents, hehe. Longevity and sillage are impeccable. Without exaggeration, it lasts over 12 hours on skin and clothes for days. When I shower after a full day and the water touches the perfume, there’s an explosion of scent that melts me (obviously, this doesn’t happen with many perfumes). In my opinion, it bears a strong resemblance to Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming and Si. On me, what stands out most is the raspberry and vanilla. It feels sweet but not overwhelming, with a bit of acidity from the raspberry and at the same time creamy, presumably from the tonka bean or patchouli. It’s the second day I’ve worn it and I can’t stop smelling myself, hehe. I think its ideal use is in cold weather and at night, but I also wear it on fresh days.

The fragrance is good, but I stick with its predecessor. It let me down on both aroma and performance.

I waited for it for ages and when it arrived, I didn’t hesitate to buy it. Its scent clearly has the La Nuit base, but the original version is darker, more nocturnal and winter-appropriate… this has a fruitier touch, with the raspberry standing out and making it more cheerful and spring-like. Excellent option. As always with Lancôme, an excellent fixative and a scent that is definitely unique, with the brand’s hallmark of originality, distinction, and elegance.

I absolutely love it. I already own Tresor La Nuit and Caressé; although they are twins, the latter is much softer and more delicate. The first is powerful and invasive, whereas Caressé is exquisite, long-lasting and sweet without being heavy. If you like La Nuit, this is a 100% match for you.

I almost bought ‘La Nuit’ blindly, but decided to test it first and it wasn’t to my liking. I perceive it as a very heavy scent, similar to ‘La Vie Est Belle’ (I’ve tried to like LVEB but haven’t been able to). Since I saw this limited edition Caresse, I’ve been obsessed with buying it, but I never found a sample bottle in department stores, so I took the risk and bought it directly from the Lancôme website, and incidentally got samples, along with a divine miniature of LVEB which I must admit still doesn’t agree with me. Lancôme describes it as ‘the first velvety rose’ and I couldn’t agree more; it’s a velvety, sweet, and fruity aroma. It immediately reminded me of ‘L’Extase Caresse de Roses’ by Nina Ricci; they share notes, but ‘La Nuit Caresse’ is darker and I think it has to do with the patchouli. Also, on my skin it has great sillage and medium longevity.

Finally, I have it! First of all, nothing to do with my mother’s original, which she wore only for special events. I hesitated between La Nuit and this, but this is much fruitier. Those raspberries captivated me—raspberries and more raspberries! It’s hypnotic. It reminds me of Kenzo Flower Elixir, but livelier and fresher. The original La Nuit has more presence, but Caressé doesn’t fall behind. Excellent fragrance and the bottle is a marvel.

I received the perfume today, but upon opening it, most of it had spilled into the box; not broken, but very strange. I have already claimed it and they have acknowledged the issue. I bought it without testing as I only have a little left of the 1990 original, and I must say it has nothing to do with that one. It is very vanilla-based, which isn’t really my thing, but it smells refined and high quality. After a few hours, it becomes a special scent, not the common kind. Ideal if you like vanilla; it is not as strong as Poison Girl or Black Opium. The bottle is beautiful, with that pink tulle rose giving it a refined and adorable touch, typical of Lancôme. It will be number one in my collection, perfect for a winter night out.

I have been wearing a sample on blotter for fifteen days and it still lingers, albeit faintly. It reminds me more of Kenzo Flower Elixir than the original Tresor Nuit. I need to test it on skin, but it seems quite long-lasting with good projection. Here in Argentina, it was launched with a promotional price, very economical compared to other perfumes of that quality. It is a limited edition, so it may not be available again at any moment.
