An oriental floral fragrance that launched in 2014. Inspired by the redolent imageries of Sophia Coppola's film 'Marie Antoinette', Dauphine is a clean, ideal, fresh skin scent, pink and cream and white all over. This scent has notes of pink, full blown rose; milky, fresh, sweet almond; and a reveille of innocent, airy musks. It is sweet, but not in a lurid, hard-candy-way; it's sweet like fresh, cream-filled, rosewater-scented pastries. With notes of musks, almond, roses and cream. Dauphine is an eau de toilette, edt.
GOEST DAUPHINE REVIEWS
Fragrantica: This is my favorite post-shower bedtime scent. Nutty and sweet, almost baby-powder-like, this smells like a good dream to me. I totally get the Marie Antoinette vibe they were going for.
Fragrantica: A lovely little pastel puff of a fragrance. Opens with a somewhat sharp almond extract note, bordering on cherry - it can pull a tiny bit sour/acrid on my skin when closely smelled, but only lasts for a few short minutes. Dauphine then dries down to a gentler rosy white musk with a confectionary tint; a dusting of powdered sugar and a dollop of cream. It rests here until it slowly fades away to become a faint, clean skin scent. This is one of my go-to’s in the summer… performs beautifully in the heat and is great when you want a whisper of a fragrance. It's such a treat to immerse yourself in a cloud of this.
Fragrantica: The first spritz is a puff of almond that fades as it quickly transforms. Then I get baked treats and confections (although it's never too sweet), rose-scented powder, and luxurious soap. If this scent was a color, it would be white - it's clean, sophisticated, complex, and pretty - all at the same time. So as much as I love sweet, dessert-y gourmands, this isn't syrupy or heavy or cheap or simple. Instead, it's a cross between a gourmand and a clean fragrance - but not clean in a fresh or detergent sense. Instead, it is like finely milled soap, makeup, and treats from a fine bakery all rolled into one. I really love this and think I need a full bottle. It's different enough from a bunch of the Turkish delight scents and super powdery scents that I own, but there is also a nod to them.
Fragrantica: A creamy ripe rose fragrance with a almond forward opening. Warm, comforting, not too sweet, but still very feminine. Enjoyable if you love marzipan!
Reddit: OMG THIS SCENT. I do not like sweet perfumes as a rule, and definitely not sweet rose perfumes, but this is not your typical sweet rose. It's not fruity or cloying whatsoever. It opens with a strong almond extract vibe, which quickly dries down into a milky-white, musky rose which went very slightly powdery on me. The almonds remain, but it's mellow and toasted rather than almond extract. This scent is so pretty and feminine. Pale pink. I like wearing it to ballet class. Huffing the bottle until I can order a full size.
Fashionable Forties Blogspot: Upon application I got roses and almonds at first whiff, with, yes, a hint of soap. The almond and soap disappeared quickly though, and I got roses and musk, with time the rose faded more and more, leaving just a trace with the musk. It really smells just as it is advertised, creamy, clean roses that are sweet but not cloying. This perfume gave me the biggest surprise of all the Goest perfumes, because I don’t like perfumes smelling of roses. It’s not that I don’t like the smell, I do, and I can like rose perfumes when other people wear it, but it never feel like me, when I wear it. So I was hugely surprised when I not only liked Dauphine, but that I like it a lot. In fact, next to Silent Film, this is my favourite! There is something in it; I believe it may be the musk, which tugs at a memory and a good one too. I get a little tug in my heart every time I smell it, but I can’t for my life recall what it is I’m reminded of. Nevertheless, I love this!
