Reviews next issue...

Yves Rocher believes in making beauty
accessible to all women...

they achieved that, on the highest level,
when they created Secrets d'Essences
Rose Absolute and Iris Noir.

For being such a discount, these two
fragrances are some of the best fragrance
deals on the planet!

The Secrets d' Essences Rose Absolute.
and the Iris Noir are unsurpassed in beauty
for a incredible price.

These are a must for any collection and of course,
the beauty award goes to the perfumer Christine Nagel from Givaudan.

Rose Absolute Eau de Parfum was created by
the perfumer Christine Nagel from Givaudan,
a leader in perfumery, the Eau de Parfum Rose
Absolute, is an homage to an absolute femininity,
a timeless perfume at once bewitching, seductive
and voluptuous. Extracted from rose petals, it is the
quintessence of the flower's scent and truly inimitable
due to its complexity and the richness of its olfactory tones.

The perfumer, Christine Nagel, was able to modernize
the rose accord while keeping its true essence as one of
perfumery’s most emblematic notes

Dewy flesh, a velvet gift, since the beginning of man,
a legend, the incarnation of femininity. Symbol of love and
self abandon, the rose, like a woman, is a caress and a bite,
innocence and hypnosis. It is softness and excess,
mystery and revelation. Fascinating, enveloping,
Rose Absolute spreads its generosity like a shawls on a
woman's shoulders. Rose and woman become one.

The union of two complementary absolutes:
The Secrets d'Essences rose is a multi-faceted rose born from
the union of two rosa damascena absolutes: Bulgarian and Turkish
rose absolute, pure and intriguing, combined with Moroccan
rose absolute, sensual and voluptuous.

Olfactive Family: Floral Oriental Woody.
Top Note: Rose Damascena
Mid Note: Cinnamon
Base Notes: Tonka bean, Patchouli.

Yves Rocher was founded in 1958 by Mr. Yves Rocher and the company is still privately-owned and run by the Yves Rocher family. ALL our products are botanically based and many of our lines contain organic extracts including our Pure Calmille line with organic chamomile, our essential oils line with organic organge blossom, organic lavender and organic eucalyptus, our arnica hand cream line with organic arnica and more.

About Yves Rocher
Yves Rocher is the World Leader in Botanical Beauty Care. Founded over 40 years ago in Brittany, a north-western region of France, Yves Rocher’s presence has since become worldwide with more than 1,500 beauty centres spread across the globe. Its official catalogue, the Green Book of Beauty, is distributed on five continents, in 90 countries and is available in over 20 languages including a braille version.

Yves Rocher does not test its products on animals, has no GMOs in its products and is committed to reducing its footprint on the earth. Our goal is to have 100% of our European manufacturing facilities ISO certified for health, safety and the environment (ISO14001) by 2010. Currently 80% are.

Our company is guided by the five principles that are botanical beauty.

Basing our behaviour on the plant world. All our products are derived from plants and we select from more than 1,100 ingredients of botanical origin. We only use synthetic ingredients when the demand for efficacy, safety and pleasure is not 100% guaranteed by the plant world.

Using all the richness of the plant world. We conduct research into the history of people and the plants they cultivate to reveal all the properties of the plant world to benefit women's beauty.

Ensuring rigorous safety and quality. We rigoroursly approve, notably through in vitro and in vivo tests each of our formulas and ingredients going into our products. We guarantee the quality and traceability of our formulas and ingredients. We guarantee the ethnobotanical missions, cultivation and harvesting in line with organic farming methods, extractions preferably using natural processes and manufacture in our Environment of Safety, Quality and Environment certified factories.

Supporting active environmental protection. We ensure the use of the chosen plant species threatens neither the plant  nor its environment. We support concrete local initiatives such as the UN's Plant for the planet programme and the Yves Rocher Foundation's Women of the Earth contest.

Making beauty accessible to all women. For almost 50 years we have promised to offer high performance products at a reasonable price for all women. We can do this trhour our control of the preparation of our product from plant to the skin. We are one of the few companies today that can boast to be a grower (we grow many of our plants for our products), manufacturer, (we manufacture all our products) and distributor ( we distribute our products online, through a mail order catalogue and in our 1,650 stores and spas around the world.) We give priority to botanical raw materials and we limit our expenditure on packaging and advertising.

These guiding principals are what make Yves Rocher #1 in skincare, #1 in bodycare, #1 in slimming care, #1 in perfume in France in sales. (source TNS worldwide beauty panel 2007)
