Valentino has launched Rock ‘n Rose Pret a Porter, the sequel to Rock ‘n Rose and Rock ‘n Rose Couture.
Valentino Pret a Porter Eau de Toilette, inspired by the classic Rock ‘n Rose fragrance, features Valentino’s favorite flower, the rose. The scent has a lighthearted elegance which makes it fresh enough to wear on a daily basis.
The notes feature bergamot, blackcurrant, crispy green, cassis, rose, gardenia, muguet, orange blossom, sandalwood, orris, musk, vanilla and heliotrope.
Valentino Rock ‘n Rose Pret a Porter is available in 50 or 90 ml Eau de Toilette. It can be found now at Dillards, and is coming soon to Sephora. (quote via sephora)

Benetton Energy Man (in blue) includes basil, pineapple, anise, lemon, coriander, lavender, black pepper, tonka bean, cedarwood, patchouli and vanilla.

The ad copy for Benetton Energy is a classic example of why writing for Le Prix Eaux Faux was so challenging; hard to beat the real thing: *crackling & explosive harmonies*, indeed!
So true — I think it is easier when you're not trying!
“Explosive harmonies to feel at ease, any time anywhere” ..I feel nervous already…
About the yet another Rock 'n Rose: aren't cassis and blackcurrant the same thing? Why do they have both in the description? Speak about the Prix Eau Faux:))
They are the same thing, but it is possible that this is a Sephora error & not the brand's (?)
“Crispy greens” ??? They probably don't mean burned collard greens. LOL.
Those Benetton bottles are horrid, IMO.
Oh, I mean just one “crispy green”
Not high hopes for this. I don't like Rock 'n Rose much.
..and I have tried the first Rock'n Rose but did not particularly like it, I mean it just did not stand out from other rose scents.. and coming from the house of Valentino it could have been a bit more exciting..
Stop! you're killin' me! That's exactly how I read it and I nearly wet my pants laughing!!!!
The smell of burnt spinach…or charred collards..ewww!
Agree.
The Benetton bottles really don't look like fragrances.
I thought the Benetton's were lotions.
I like the RNR Couture but it doesn't have any lasting power. And the name is hideous. Sounds like a desperate groupie.
LOL at “desperate groupie”
