Christian Lacroix Rouge and Noir for Avon
Now available from Avon are two perfumes created by the legendary house of Lacroix. I love the packaging and it’s always lovely to see high-end brands reaching out towards mass market consumers. The scent itself is sexy but not too over the top for your average Avon lady. And the price is decent too - $32 for 1.7 oz. There will also be Noir, which I haven’t sampled yet but would love to try as I love cardamom scents such as Alexander McQueen’s Kingdom.
Christian Lacroix Rouge and Christian Lacroix Noir, both created by the perfumers at IFF, are striking, audacious and provocative, reflecting Christian Lacroix’s original haute design sensibility. Christian Lacroix Rouge is a strikingly bold floral chypre with exuberant top notes of wild red peony blended with zesty citrus accents. Rouge’s heart is rich with modern florals with a drydown consisting of warm, passionate notes such as cashmere woods, patchouli and musks. Christian Lacroix Noir is an elegant fougere design with fresh and spicy topnotes of ginger and saffron. Noir’s heart consists of cardamom and textured orris with a drydown composed of a woody blend of cedarwood and vetiver. The luxurious packaging is distinctive of the House of Christian Lacroix, reflecting a passion for embroidered motifs with the bold use of red and black.

Brittney,
I haven’t seen the avon book featuring this perfume so I am afraid I can’t help. Maybe try contacting customer support at Avon.com!
Good luck.
