Vivamor Parfums Dare Me Now (Bertrand Duchaufour) 2026 + Spring In Color Giveaway.

Vivamor Parfums Dare Me Now

Vivamor Parfums Dare Me Now by Olya Bar

While we are still waiting for the Spring to fully arrive on the East Coast, once it does arrive, it spills in. Suddenly everything feels brighter, sweeter, a little more indulgent than it should be, and we lean into it. Vivamor Parfums Dare Me Now lives right in that moment. From the first spritz, it’s juicy in a way that almost feels edible. Blackcurrant comes in first, tart, slightly syrupy, with that deep, almost stained quality it has cut through by a vibrant mandarin that lifts everything instantly. Then Brazilian orange follows, and this is where it gets really addictive. It’s not just citrus, it feels like the juice itself, freshly squeezed, still a little pulpy, still cold.

And then… something playful happens.

There’s this unmistakable bubblegum effect that starts to bloom. It’s not officially listed, but it’s there, hovering between the fruits and florals. Maybe it’s the composition, maybe it’s the color of that neon pink bottle getting into your head, but it works. It adds this flirtatious, slightly cheeky twist that makes the whole thing feel alive, not predictable.

As it settles, jasmine and rose come through, softening the edges, wrapped in sandalwood and a touch of vanilla cream. It stays firmly in that fruity floral territory but never feels overly sweet or juvenile. The fruits keep it sparkling, the florals keep it grounded, and the base gives it just enough warmth to linger. What I love most is how it wears, it doesn’t collapse. The blackcurrant keeps peeking through, the citrus stays lifted, and that creamy dry down just melts into the skin in the most satisfying way.

And yes, I’ll say it; ignore the official description. It doesn’t do the fragrance justice. This is where you trust the master perfumer behind it: Bertrand Duchaufour. There’s intention here, even in the playfulness. Vivamor Parfums Dare Me Now is spring in color. Bare shoulders, glossy lips, some sweet cocktail or a mocktail in hand, somewhere outdoors where time stretches a little longer than it should.

Notes: Italian Mandarin, Blackcurrant, Brazilian Orange, Indian Jasmine, Rose Absolute, White Sandalwood, Vanilla Cream.

    Oh my! When I read Olya’s review I had one immediately thought. This would be the perfect scent for weekend brunch with friends. The combination of juicy citrus, syrupy blackcurrant, and that playful hint of bubblegum perfectly captures the feeling of laughter, roses, and endless mimosas.

  • I liked how Olya mentioned that the blackcurrant and citrus stays around. I also liked how she mentioned a bubblegum note that isn’t listed. This sounds like a lovely fragrance and I’d love to try it. I live in Colorado, USA.

  • This was such a great read! I can almost feel that first rush of spring Olya described, bright air, a touch of sweetness, everything waking up around you. The way she brought Dare Me Now to life, with juicy blackcurrant, that sunlit mandarin, and the surprising bubblegum nuance, makes it sound like more than just a perfume. It feels like an attitude, a moment where confidence and playfulness meet. I love how she highlighted Duchaufour’s balance between sophistication and fun, it really shows in how the scent seems to shine without losing depth. Now I’m even more curious to experience it on skin, where all those nuances can unfold.

    Dare Me Now is surely a daring and playful name for a fragrance. The brightness of the bottle itself encapsulates the feeling you’ll get wearing it: vibrant, vivacious and voluptuous. It’s mostly a mix of flowers and fruits with that bubblegum effect mentioned by Olya that you find in the background. It’s probably attributed to the vanilla cream and mixing with the white sandalwood. Either way, I love me a spring forward fragrance and how it uplifts our spirits. I’m located in the USA.

  • Fuschia is an interesting pigment that sets itself apart from the pack. Scent is subjective but here it seems to be appealing to the feminine persuasion. Olya’s article reiterates that the true spring season is nearing but this is a year round wear depending on the person. Would make a great gift for those into the super sweet and daring frags with a depth that mostly niche houses can provide. From USA

  • What a fun, feminine perfume full of joy and the promise of spring! This sounds unapologetically girly with its fruits and florals and that bubblegum note. I’m glad Olya doesn’t find it veers off into juvenile territory due to the sparkling fruits. MD, US

  • Spring fragrances are some of my very favorites. I love almost all flowers, so most floral fragrances appeal to me. I love how Olya mentions that Dare Me Now has a bubblegum effect. I’m also glad she points out that the fragrance never becomes too sweet or juvenile.

    Thank you, Olya, for your great review, and thank you to Vivamor Parfums for the giveaway. I am located in the USA.

    I like how this review captures that exact moment when spring finally hits and everything feels brighter, juicier, a little indulgent. Definitely juicier!! That opening with blackcurrant and citrus? That’s what pulls me in. But what really gets me is that unexpected bubblegum twist—it keeps the fragrance playful without feeling childish. I also appreciate how it holds its structure; nothing fades too quickly. And knowing it’s crafted by Bertrand Duchaufour, I trust that balance. It feels fun, intentional, and wearable.

  • I liked the description – tart, juicy, pulpy, rose fragrance. Dare Me Now sounds like a fun unisexy scent to me. Thanks Olya for a great article. MI USA

  • Ola references the perfumer in stating that Dare me Now is “Spring in color.” It is spring personified with notes that maintain their essence from the opening to the dry down. A bright, sweet scent with a tangible juiciness, hints of a ghost note of bubblegum. Dare me Now is a fruity floral that delights as it unfolds bring a flirty quality that is mature yet manages to have a youthful zing.

    I thought Olya’s review to be quite good as I could envision myself while reading. The notes sound so up my alley as I love this type of composition of fruity floral perfume and so I’m grateful for the opportunity to add a bottle of this beautiful masterpiece to my fragrance wardrobe.

    This fragrance sounds absolutely perfect for a Sunday brunch outside with the girls on a beautiful spring day in Texas. I love exerting both Vivamor and Bertrand put out..can’t WAIT to sniff this!

  • I saw Steven’s video and have been interested in this fragrance ever since. It is on my spring wish list!This juicy floral sounds like a work of art. Bertrand Duchaufour made some amazing fragrances and that’s the first thing that piqued my interest. Then the way Olya describing it as playful but not juvenile. She talks about the fruit notes peaking through as the fragrance evolves. I love citrus in my spring/summer fragrance they keep it fresh. I am beyond excited for this. I would absolutely love to own this fragrance. I’m in Pennsylvania USA

  • Time stretches a little longer than it should… I adore that time of year. It sounds like a fun and playful scent with serious bone structure. In maryland

  • I’m a bit confused because several other websites, including Vivamor’s site, indicate Christian Provenzano is the perfumer. I’m in the US.

  • Anything by Bertrand Duchaufour is an automatic worth a try in my book. He is great at adding a little something to give it a unique twist, subtle or bold but it’s almost always there and 9/10xs I adore it. I have a feeling the bubblegum twist will be fabulous. I’m in California, thank you for the generous giveaway.

    I am looking for a juicy and vibrant fragrance for spring. Dare Me Now sounds like the perfect spritz for the warmer weather ahead. I just love citrus notes when the combine with jasmine and rose. The impression of bubblegum sounds cheeky and flirtatious. I am ready for fun this spring!

  • carrie_earle says:

    This sounds fantastic. Happy that Olya mentioned a note of bubblegum since it’s not specifically listed and it’s a note I enjoy. In the USA.

    Thanks for the vibrant review, Olya! What I love most is how you capture that specific moment when spring finally commits — not tentative anymore, just spilling in. The description of the Brazilian orange as “still a little pulpy, still cold” is so precise it practically has texture, and that unlisted bubblegum ghost hovering between the fruits and florals sounds like exactly the kind of playful wink that keeps a fruity floral from feeling like it’s on autopilot. The fact that it doesn’t collapse — that the blackcurrant keeps surfacing and the citrus stays lifted while the vanilla cream drydown melts into skin — says a lot about the construction underneath all that effortless charm. Duchaufour has always had that ability to make something feel spontaneous while clearly engineering every beat. I’d love to try it. Cheers from WI, USA
