I wore this perfume for the first time at Christmas 1996/97. It is very cute and brings back interesting and mischievous memories. This is a peach rose in wood and cabbage juice, more modest, artless, youthful than the famous Tresor. I remember I also had deodorant, fragrant body talc and cream perfume.

gabiangelescu

Beautiful, powdery rose, i just love it!

sarage

Beautiful, super feminine powdery rose. I think this is better than Lancome Tresor. Volare is softer, less sweet and more elegant. To me Tresor is too sweet, almost cloying. I would never wear Tresor.
I like the softness of Volare. If I ever need a romantic rose perfume, I will consider Volare.

Ranya

90% old Tresor, even with the same longevity. Very quality, one of the best Oriflame product ever. Not the same opinnion about the new version with rose shape bottle.

gatsby

@deedee I don t really know if there is an old Volare like the one you describe it. The first one was in a circular bottle with a big plastic cap, like a mushroom, and the second was like the one pictured, both with the same juice, unchanged. The last bottle (like pictured here) is disappeared from everywhere and the quality of the scent was really good. The nowadays formula, rose shaped, is totaly different, mostly in the dry down, more chemical. Yes, is a Tresor poor twin and I see nothing wrong in it. A good and safe choice for the rose and peach lovers, but only THIS version, the new one is a disaster indeed.

kameron

one of the best from oriflame, I mean the first old edition, discontinued now. Why so many haters? There are so many girls and women that can t afford a Lancome, what is so wrong in this nice, well blended copy? It is not a fake, after all...
It s a nice, sensitive and romantic scent and it is bad that they discontinued it. A good, quality perfume is a thing that every woman should afford! And men, sure.

DeeDeeInAmsterdam

the very very old Volare was in bottle shaped similarly to Coty Láimant. I remember if from childhood. Smelled lovely. I never tried the newer versions but Spellbound by Estee Lauder is perfectly matching with my memory of the old one. There was an ebay auction for that old bottle and i missed it. I cant even find a picture online of the old version, nevermind purchase it...:(

Mbea88

I really don't think it is sweet or fruity at all it is a deep scent a nice mature scent years ago when I bought it I didn't liked it because it was so strong for me and a few days ago I went to sephora smelld the tresor by Lancôme perfume and it smelld so familiar almost exactly like volare so I started to reuse it again and I really love it ,too bad it got discontinued in my country because they replaced it whit the new volare so I ordered it again really curious how it will smell if I will like it ,I will definitely check back to review it

danielmventer

Male Review: Powdery dry-down with strong hints of peach and musk. Nice for any season I think due to the sweet Amber notes and powdery violet/iris notes. The rose notes make it a bit more of a feminine scent. So I will give it to my mom. But I like to smell it as it is very calming.

Nanami

It's a very nice scent, but I can't stand the powder note, is so much intense ... is cloying my nose!

Bye bye volare ooooh

Irinka Popova

personally for me this is bad and cheap version of TRESOR...

dipisor

I love this powdery scent. I used to buy this very often a few years ago. Smelled so nice on my skin and very long lasting. It is so romantic... :)

basma gamal

powder peach perfume not heavy similar to the opening of tresor poor sillage moderate lasting I kindda like it not the best but it is OK

boutlagh

this one is quite strange, sometimes I like it, sometimes I don't.If I'm tired or it's hot I don't dare even look at it because it gives me nausea. but on some cold days this perfume gets comforting and romantic as it smells like an old books library.

black_vanilla

I was going to throw up after smelling this..

Cathped

Pretty watered down Tresor, but a good cheaper dupe if you love the iconic perfume hit from the nineties. I had Tresor back then, as I recieved a miniature as part of a Christmas gift. Strong honey smell.I can cope with the originial, but unfortunately I feel that Volare, as it is way sweeter & powderier, is dated. My association goes to elderly ladies at an office.

id

peachy, a bit musky, quite common daily scent. And where is the iris I was hoping for??? No lasting power.

LaDomna

This one is very fruity on me, just apricot/peach and really nothing else. I usually adore iris, but sadly I can´t find any in this perfume. I guess it´s a nice perfume, if you like fruit. I find it booring! Good thing I got it for free.

pourfemme

I liked it very much it is both floral and fruity. It is cheap because it is not long lasting on skin or clothes.

Liina

Volare is "love" or "hate" perfume. And I'm the second one here. It smells so bitter that I cannot like it in any way. As I look at the notes I can see why. I don't like many of them.
Volare smells kinda spicy and very bitter to me. Not my type of a fragrance at all.

Mooniq

Opens up a bit spicy, some of you think this one reminds of Tresor - well just a very small similarity to me.. maybe 10-20% alike Tresor.Volare lacks the depth and richness that is Tresors signature. Volare to me is light and airy, a bit spicy flowers-parfum. This one is for young women to wear at office or casual. A scent that stays close to the person who wears it. Volare is ... nice, but gone in 1 hour.

Öppnar lite kryddigt. Några av er tycker att denna påminner om Tresor - jag kan bara ana en liten, liten likhet, kanske 10 - 20% likhet med Tresor.Volare saknar djupet och värmen som Tresor har. Volare är en lätt och luftig lite krydd-blommig doft. Denna är för unga kvinnor - kanske för kontoret eller som varje-dag-doft. En doft som stannar nära den som bär den. Volare är...ok, men helt borta inom 1 timme.

belle femme

this is exactly like tresore by lancome but in a suitable price & no staying power

Ashanti

I love this flowery perfume.Its beautiful but not too long lasting.Lovely perfume

Spitzasavilaa

since i tried the body cream, the scent is flowery and very feminim. i hope 4 the perfume also

Patricia888

Oh boy, this is one of those "love it or hate it". And I`d be the second one.. It`s sooooo bitter sweet. I honestly cannot imagine wearing it to anywhere else that to burial (I didn`t mean to offend anyone). It is just so serious and it just so surreal (in negative way) with my chemistry. It`s definitely interesting but not for me.

melinamelp

Hate it.. Cheap copy of Tresor.. !! Just hate it. The scent dissolves too quickly and leaves the wearer naked in cheap components... Pitty

lara0905

Well made reproduction of Lancome Tresor.

Iris, sandalwood, violet and musk dominant, the peach and apricot give a slightly fruity taste to the bittersweet, earthy, dry, powdery essence. Tresor has more complexity, more fruity, somehow fresher, lively than Volare.
Volare gives a dusty, old-school,sultry feeling.

birdsson

I got this perfume from my mother, in the beginning i smeeled it in the afternoon and i can't say i really liked it but now in the night time i do like it, seems like volare could even inspire me sometimes, i can feel iris dominated, so let's call it night-time perfume, but i wouldn't wear it every day

Gyöngy

It is like an old parfume, like my grandma's. I'm nearly sure that this fragrance is made for elder ladies.

sistercurare

I just purchased the miniature of Volare, and after wearing it for a couple of days, I can say that is 80% like Tresor. It is definitely long lasting as it is a perfume de toilette , but it leaves a more fruity sense, while Tresor is creamier and woodsier on me.
On the other hand, I have lately discovered that perfumes are TOTALLY different on us depending on our location. For example in Greece where i live, i cannot bring myself to wear it at the moment, it is 35' C.
It is too overpowering for me, but then again people complimented me on my way home...I am confused, but finally, I think older women (like 50+) may like it better.

seme

its very romantic
and comforts me
it was the first one i bought from oriflame

I.I

It's a lovely perfume that one could wear pleasantly all year round.
Lasts long and leaves a sweet feeling on the skin.
BUT
As others already pointed it is exactly like Tresor of Lancome.

Mariame

marcela86 this is like tresor lancome: powdery peachy rose perfume,how can you say that it is for 15 girls in pink dresses?
you have a lot of imagination ,girl :)

fanciful

ACTUAL NOTES (FROM ORIFLAME'S SITE):

Rose / Lilac / Iris / Violet / Peach / Apricot / Sandalwood / Amber / Musk

marcela86

This smell like baby powder, cotton candy, vanilla and violets. Extremely sweet and powdery it's perfect for a girl under 15 years. When i smell this i feel like i'm a little girl in a pink dress, eating a cotton candy in a park, in a summer day.

DiBonD

This one definitely smells like flowers, I hardly detected any hint or musk. It smells like body powder women used in the past. The picture in this site is the old version of Volare, it was re-released in early 2010.

For me it's just too strong and overpowering, as I expected something fresh and aquatic. I just bought the body powder for the very low price at the discount.

Amethyste

Imitation of Tresor

Rouu

so much over powering , it gives me headache , my bottle is quite different with big cap but same color and almost same design..

it have a strange appeal , spices and violet alot of violet i can't get any fruites in here !! i have it long time ago and for sure it isnt not my cup of tea any more i'll pass it for a friend !!

claudia_23

i think this one is the only oriflame perfume that i realy hate, the smell makes me vomit youcks . and yeas this smeels like tresor another perfume that i don;t like.

dianthus

First thought when i smell it is vitamine coctail (you know like vitamine in powder to dissolve in water and drink :). Very floral and fresh but warm in the same time. For every day ocassions, office, meetings. not for old ladies, good for cheerfull feminie woman in her thirties. Brings to me a picture of sunny nice day.

marwa11

i think this perfume is a fruity floral one when i bought it i liked it first then i got bored from it , its too heavy &overpowering to me,
may be others find it more intersting than me .
