Wearing nail polish remover, by choice?

Given my limited time and my copious amount of samples, I am starting to end up with a back log of review notes. Thus I am going to start doing some short reviews, but I'll reserve the better, interesting, or more difficult fragrances for longer multiple wear exploration. Also, I'll be honest, when I hate it, I don't want to write about it a length.

So now, for the...well...unfortunate results. Today I'm reviewing Lanvin's Rumeur, and its flanker, Rumeur 2 Rose. Here's what Lanvin has to say for themselves:
Lanvin Rumeur EDP: A refined fragrance that is irresistibly attractive, sexy and elegant. Mysterious and enigmatic, Rumeur is a contemporary classic floral housed in a bottle inspired by the traditional Arpege flacon. Top notes: Magnolia; Middle notes: Seringa, white rose, sambac jasmine; Base notes: Patchouli, musk.

Lanvin Rumeur 2 Rose EDP: A sexy, refined fragrance that is irresistibly attractive, feminine and elegant. Mysterious and enigmatic, Rumeur 2 rose is a contemporary classic floral housed in a bottle inspired by the traditional Arpege falcon. Notes of Magnolia, Seringa, White Rose, Sambac Jasmine.
Lanvin Rumeur EDP - Yick! Nail polish remover fighting with a fruity bubble gum smell. Less candy, more cleaner.

Lanvin Rumeur 2 Rose EDP - Smells like cherry koolaid and fruity bubble gum. I love roses and there is NOTHING rose about it. Like someone was trying to make perfume and accidentally dumped some cleaner in it.
