Lancome Trésor

Lancome Trésor is one of those classic perfume names that still means rich, feminine fragrance to a lot of people. By our assessment, its strength is the clearly dressed-up feel that Lancome has long used for this line, so it reads as a proper evening or special-occasion scent rather than a casual splash. The honest limit is that this kind of perfume is not subtle for everyone; the whole point is presence, and that can feel too sweet or too full if someone wants airier scents. In practice it is about a more deliberate wear, the sort that comes with a spray or two and then stays in the air around you. It sits above the generic department-store bottles because the name carries long familiarity and a clear style. The one thing it does not try to be is a quiet, modern freshie.
