I had never heard of this fragrance until I found it at Marshal’s for a very low price and I loved the packaging so I bought this one un-sniffed. It is very lovely actually and I love that it is made in France. France makes some well mixed formulas. The rose is the first note that I smell but it is not over-powering at all. It is classified as an Oriental Woody fragrance for women. Ballade Verte was launched in 2007. Top notes are ginger, iran galbanum, violet leaf, turkish rose and ylang-ylang; middle notes are agarwood (oud), virginia cedar, sandalwood and gurjan balsam; base notes are white musk, madagascar vanilla and resins. Having wrote all that, I love ginger and a bit of violet as long as it is not too strong. None of the notes are overly strong with this fragrance. The bottle is made of heavy glass. There is nothing too fancy about the bottle but it is what is inside that matters the most. The box is so pretty, I do not want to throw it away. It last for about 4 to 5 hours on myself. It is a great rose scent to add to my wardrobe of fragrances.

Notes: ginger, galbanum, violet leaf, Turkish rose, ylang-ylang; resins, agarwood, Virginia cedar, sandalwood; white musk and Madagascar vanilla.
This fragrance opens with an accord that is clean, fresh and floral. The various notes eventually settle into a better-balanced composition in which violet leaf and rose dance a very tantalizing dance together. A smidge of ylang-ylang adds a welcome exotic touch to the whole and beautifully completes the floral bouquet. The fragrance stays like that for more than one and a half hours, only to gradually start transitioning towards the heart notes. The first woodsy note I detect is sandalwood. From this point on the fragrance is a pale, creamy wood with a touch of green notes and soft, indistinct florals. Lasts for four hours on my skin.

I have read quite a bit about this brand from US beauty blogs as it is not very well know here and so I decided to order some samples to try it out. I got two samples – Pink Riviera and Ballade Verte and they are both great fragrances. Very satisfied with the purchase.
Ballade Verte can be very harsh in the opening note. Sort of like a scent if sprayed on at a perfume counter one would put it down right away. Extremely powerful and in your face. As I have learned to test my samples first at night time where I have time to enjoy and ponder in peace I allowed this one time to come into its own. Beautiful and Georgeous. The harshness or boldness mellows down quite quickly (no more than 30 seconds) and what remains is a very beautiful fresh fragrance which is uplifting and just pleasant to wear. I must have this for summer. The violet note and ginger is very present throughout this fragrance and adds a bit of pep. The essense of ginger is very hard to capture in fragrances but it is done beautifully here. The lasting power could be better but worth the price anyway.
Perfume Notes:
Head: Violet Leaves, Turkish Rose, Iranian Galbanum, Ylang-Ylang, Chinese Ginger
Heart: Indian Sandalwood, Virginian Cedarwood, Agarwood (Oud), Gurjun Balsam
Base: Tree Sap, Bourrbon Vanilla, White Musk

As soon as I read the Beautyhabit description of this scent, I knew it had to be mine. Luckily, I tried a sample before plunking down my money for it. The notes can be found in Winterwheat’s review, so I won’t duplicate.
When I initially applied Ballade Verte, I got a burst of clear, sharp green. It smelled of grass and ivy – I thought I would love this scent. Unfortunately, as the scent remained on my skin, it kept its greenness, but also acquired a generic “nice-smelling chemical flowers” accord. The effect reminded me of a cleaning fluid. It tried to be appealing and fresh, but simply cannot hide the strong solvents lingering beneath. I give 2 lippies since the opening was nice, but the rest of the scent was downright appalling on me.

Ballade Verte is a gorgeous green scent with the clarity and freshness of tender, new grass the first time it’s been cut. I tested it before reading the notes, and I’m glad I did. Otherwise I’d have kidded myself into thinking I was smelling “Violet leaves, Turkish Rose, Galbanum from Iran, Ylang Ylang from Comoros (Indian Ocean), and Chinese Ginger, Indian Sandalwood, Cedarwood from Virginia, Agarwood, Gurjun Balsam, Tree Sap, Vanilla from Madagascar, and White Musk” (courtesy of beautyhabit.com, who sent me the sample). Yeah yeah yeah, it’s all there, but the gestalt effect is freshly cut grass, not the horsey bluegreen stuff of August but the soft chartreuse stuff of April. Makes me crave spring even more than I do already. One lippie off for weak sillage.
