Last summer,\u00a0A Lab On Fire<\/a>\u00a0launched Rose Rebelle Respawn, a “modern, feminine” fragrance developed by perfumer Sophia Grojsman<\/a>.\u00a0Like everything about A Lab on Fire, it’s a bit mysterious: it’s the third or fourth permutation of Grojsman’s 100% Love<\/a>, originally released in 2003 by S-Perfume (the parent brand of A Lab on Fire). The original 100% Love was followed by S-Perfume 100% Love {More}<\/a> in 2006, and more recently, by A Lab on Fire Rose Rebelle<\/a> in 2011, which I never had the chance to try. (I think it was available only in Paris, and it\u00a0may or may not have been identical to 100% Love.)<\/p>\n Rose Rebelle Respawn has a composition of\u00a0ivy, mint leaves,\u00a0carnation, rose,\u00a0musks, incense and cacao notes, and its description on the A Lab on Fire website reads:<\/p>\n Nothing can harm you. Nothing can drag you down.\u00a0 When your strength is unlimited, it comes from the deepest, most fearless heart. Looking hard into the eyes of your future, you are steady and master it. It kneels before you, in awe. The allure of Rose Rebelle Respawn is boundless.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n That really<\/em> sounded like something I needed to try for the new year, so I ordered a small sample vial. I’ve been wearing it all week, and I’m enjoying it so much that I’m considering purchasing a full bottle. Not that I need a full bottle of\u00a0anything<\/em>, these days, but this one is awfully tempting for me. I admire and enjoy the original 100% Love (enough to have included it on a list of 25 must-try rose perfumes<\/a>), but I personally find it too jammy-sweet in its fruit notes, too hot-pink in its florals, to wear on a regular basis. A small sample is all I need to own, for occasional weekend use.\u00a0Rose Rebelle Respawn is indeed a close relation to 100% Love et al., but it’s been re-interpreted in a way that makes it easier for me to wear in daytime, on mass transit, even (lightly) in the office.<\/p>\n To my nose, Rose Rebelle Respawn doesn’t have the bright red fruit notes of 100% Love, and the volume has been turned down on its rose and chocolate notes.\u00a0The opening contains a new, soft-yet-fresh green note; I wouldn’t necessarily be able to identify it as mint or ivy on my own, but I do like it, and I admire the way it fades into the rose and carnation. The dry down is a blend of sheer, powdery chocolate and light musks that has a “skin scent” feeling for me.\u00a0As usual, you should remember that my general tastes do veer towards the sweeter end of the spectrum; Rose Rebelle Respawn is certainly a softer, gentler version of 100% Love, but it’s still a quirky-romantic “fleurmand.” It\u00a0has low sillage, but very good staying power for an Eau de Toilette. If I do purchase a full bottle for myself, I’ll wear it often.<\/p>\n A Lab on Fire Rose Rebelle Respawn is available in 15 (approx $33) or 60 ($100) ml Eau de Toilette.
