“ | Knowing how you always help sick children around the world, I just want you to know that you're the most kindhearted person I ever met! | ” |
—Rose, "Princess Fragrance" |
Rose Lavillant[8] is a student in Miss Bustier's class at Collège Françoise Dupont.
In "Princess Fragrance", after Chloé Bourgeois taunts Rose and tears up her letter to Prince Ali, she is akumatized by Hawk Moth and becomes Princess Fragrance, a perfume-shooting supervillain.
In "Félix", after being fooled by Félix to think that Adrien didn't appreciate his friends, she is re-akumatized into Princess Fragrance, and, along with Reflekta and Lady Wifi, the three supervillains form the The Punishers Trio, a group of supervillains who want to get revenge on Adrien and later, Félix.

Appearance
Physical appearance
Rose is 4'11" and a slender teenage girl with a blonde pixie cut hair, periwinkle eyes, and pink lipstick.
Civilian attire
She wears a shirt with light pink sleeves and top front, pink and white stripes on the front, a pink back that has a pale golden wing design, and a string tied around her waist. She also has a pink mini skirt with two white edges at the bottom of the cloth, white leggings, two pink bracelets around her right wrist, and pink dress shoes.
As Princess Fragrance
Princess Fragrance's skin is a pale green and her sclera are light pink. Her hair is pink with lighter pink edges on her bangs. It is long and tied back into a rosebud-like bun, (hence her name) and detailed with black horizontal lines and black leaves around the bottom half. A black tube comes out of the top of the bun and hangs down to the back of her knees, and the end of her hair comes out of the end and is tied with a black band. Like a mask, black paint is around her upper face and over her eyes with a swirl below her left eye. She also has pink lipstick.
Her outfit is a black jumpsuit and covers her arms, legs, and neck. Narrow pink lines go down her puffed sleeves and puffed shorts, and they make a rose design on her chest. Her shoes are high heels, having pink heels and pointed pink tips to her toes. Her blaster is a dark purple tear-shaped bottle with pink horizontal lines, and the end is clear, rounded, light pink glass surrounded by dark gray leaf-like edges where it attaches to the bottle. Through the bottle and out of the end of the glass is a small, dark gray pipe, which is where the perfume shoots out. The handle and the trigger are thin, curled dark gray metal wire, and over one part of the handle near the back, there is a round, dark purple piece with indented lines spiraling around it.

Personality
Rose is a sweet, cheerful, and naive teenage girl.[9] With an optimistic and happy attitude, Rose cares for everyone around her, often showing much gratitude, and she likes helping them, offering snacks and drinks to her classmates during their movie project in "Horrificator". Her kindness can occasionally lead her to a downfall (as she is naive), though, such as in the episode "Timebreaker" when the title character tricks her into helping her stand up and thereby erases her from time. She is also very sensitive, easily becoming frightened to run for class representative after Chloé threatens to kick her out of the scrapbooking club in "Darkblade". In "Befana", Rose can be very brave when standing up for her friends. Her courage is further shown in "Zombizou", in which she risks herself to save Chloé from the titular villain's minions. When she angrily encouraged Marinette to try again in giving her gift to Adrien in "Cat Blanc".
As mentioned by Marinette in her webisode Rose is more open and honest with her feelings not afraid to speak her mind to a guy she likes with Prince Ali.
As Princess Fragrance, she is obsessed with Prince Ali and will stop at nothing to accomplish her goal to make him hers. She expects people to treat her like royalty, and she is particularly enraged by people who take Prince Ali away from her or won't follow her. She also likes to sing and makes everyone under her control sing.
Abilities
As a civilian
In "Zombizou", Rose is fairly physically strong as she is able to carry Chloé Bourgeois, although just barely. In "Reverser", Rose is good at writing music lyrics. Shown in “Captain Hardrock”, Rose is a very good singer in her band Kitty Section.
As Princess Fragrance
As Princess Fragrance, Rose's perfume bottle becomes a gun that can spray different scents, each with its own unique abilities. The barrel of the gun changes color to signify which one is being used. There are two types of scents seen:
- The pink spray brainwashes anyone into serving her. Those affected will do whatever she says and will speak only in song.
- The green spray makes whoever it hits give off a horrendous, rotten fish-like stench.
If she points the gun downwards and continually shoots perfume, it propels her into and through the sky, allowing her to fly.

Relationships
Juleka Couffaine

Rose leaning on Juleka's shoulder.
Juleka is Rose's best friend as they often hang out together during breaks and between classes. If Juleka ever needs help and support, Rose willingly gives it to her, and she worries for Juleka if she is upset. She reassures Juleka that she isn't cursed and will get a good picture of herself for class picture day in "Reflekta", and she is consequently mortified when Chloé prevents Juleka from being in the photo. In "The Notebook", Rose appreciates Juleka calling her awesome, writing it in her notebook as a way to cheer her up. They are both members of the band Kitty Section in "Captain Hardrock", Rose being the lead singer, and Juleka playing guitar.
In "Zombizou", Rose is comforted and cuddled by Juleka after her close call with Zombizou's minions until it's revealed Rose got infected with Zombizou's kiss and is implied to have kissed Juleka to infect her as well; the two are even holding hands and even share a hug after they are returned to normal. In "Reverser", they both are members of the school Art Club.
Prince Ali

Rose tells Prince Ali how she feels for him.
Rose is a very big fan of Prince Ali, even writing him a letter expressing her thanks for all the kind things he does. At the end of "Princess Fragrance", Rose finally gets to reveal her gratitude towards him and befriends him.
When she is Princess Fragrance, she is passionately fixated on him, declaring him as her "prince" and planning to wed him. When they are interrupted by Ladybug, she tries to make Paris their kingdom for them to rule. When that fails, she suggests running away from Paris with him.
Marinette Dupain-Cheng

Marinette and Alya Césaire commenting on Rose and her notebook.
Rose is good friends with Marinette. When Rose is trying to help Juleka break her photo curse, Marinette's help means a lot to Rose, and she is very happy that they were able to succeed in their efforts after school in the park. Rose is also warmed by Marinette's compliment and drawing for her in her notebook. She has hung out with Marinette on several occasions, such as modeling her hats and jewelry in "Despair Bear." In "Befana," Rose comes to Marinette's birthday party and calls Marinette the sweetest person in the world when Befana threatens her. In "Gigantitan," Rose, like the others, already knows that Marinette has a crush on Adrien and approves of it. She works with her friends to help Marinette plan a date with Adrien, but when Marinette turns down Adrien's offer of a ride, she praises her friend for making a great effort. During "Gorizilla," while waiting for Marinette, Rose was surprised to see pictures of her together with Adrien, saying, "They're so cute together!" After the defeat of the Scarlet Army, Rose attended the picnic they were having for Marinette.
She also helps Marinette out on occasion, seen in "Reflekdoll". Like her classmates in "Ladybug", Rose believes that Marinette would never steal or cheat but becomes sad that she got expelled from school leading to her being almost akumatized again.
Like many people, Rose highly appreciates Ladybug. In "Gigantitan," she even works with Alya Césaire and the others to help Ladybug get out of the villain's grip. However, as Princess Fragrance, she is very enraged at Ladybug ruining her wedding and figuring out to plug her nose in order to avoid the effect of the perfume.
Alya Césaire
Alya is also one of Rose's friends. Alya's kind comment towards her that she writes in her notebook helps to cheer Rose up. In "Busy Day", Rose joins Alya in Alya's plan for them and Juleka Couffaine to help Marinette and her parents finish a large order of macarons.
The two friends enjoy spending time with each other, as seen in "Gorizilla", where they were going swimming at the pool, seeing a movie in "Syren", and taking part in Clara Nightingale's new music video in "Frightningale".
Chloé Bourgeois

Rose picking up the pieces of her letter that was ripped apart by Chloé.
Rose is both wary and fearful of Chloé, though she tries to be nice to her. In "Princess Fragrance", she optimistically asks Chloé to take her letter for Prince Ali to him, only for her hope to be shattered when Chloé sneers at her request and destroys her letter. Chloé sabotaging Juleka Couffaine's chance to be in the class photo just so she'll be able to stand next to Adrien Agreste greatly upsets Rose, calling it "one of Chloé's mean tricks." It also takes her friends' encouragement to cheer her up after Chloé insults her notebook. In "Zombizou", despite knowing that Chloé isn't the nicest person, she disregards her own safety to save her.
While she is Princess Fragrance, she gets revenge on Chloé destroying her letter to Prince Ali by spraying a stinky perfume onto her.
Kagami Tsurugi
While not much is known about the two, they have definitely interacted before

and seem to be good friends as shown by Marinette's official instagram.

Trivia
- In the Latin American dub, Rose's name is Rosita.
- Rose's surname is a modification of the surname "Laville", meaning "the city".
- Her full name is a reference to the song "La Vie en rose" ("Life in pink") by French singer Édith Piaf.
- Which is also a reference to the La Vie en Rose restaurant found in real life France.
- During the derby hat competition in "Mr. Pigeon", Rose and Juleka are standing next to a derby hat with gears attached to it, suggesting one or both of them made the hat.
- An earlier concept design for Rose includes her hair being slightly longer and curlier and her shoes having flowers on them.[10]
- In the past class photo seen in "Reflekta", Rose has longer, roughly shoulder-length hair.
- In "Princess Fragrance", "The Evillustrator", "Antibug", "Reflekta", and "Pixelator", it is shown that she is left-handed.
- In "The Mime", Rose appears in the background alongside Juleka while Cat Noir is being tackled by the Mime under the Eiffel Tower.
- She is the second shortest student in Miss Bustier's class, after Alix.

- On May 17, 2017, the writers revealed that Princess Fragrance will reappear in Season 3.[11]
- Since then, it has been confirmed that a scarlet version of Princess Fragrance will appear in the two-part special event "Heroes' Day".
- However, due to the fact that the Heroes' Day two-parter was originally leaked as a Season 3 episode but has since been confirmed as the finale of Season 2, the writers may have simply been referring to her appearance in this two-parter.
- Eventually, Princess Fragrance did return in Season 3, appearing in "Felix", where she teamed up with Lady Wifi and Reflekta to make the Punishers Trio; in "Ladybug", where she appears briefly in her scarlet form; in "Gamer 2.0" for Gamer's powers; and as a statue in the Musée Grévin in "The Puppeteer 2".
- Since then, it has been confirmed that a scarlet version of Princess Fragrance will appear in the two-part special event "Heroes' Day".
- In the Season 2 theme song, Rose has pig stickers on her photo.
- She is one of the few students in Miss Bustier's class whose family has not yet been revealed in canon. The others are Ivan Bruel, Nathaniel Kurtzberg, and Lê Chiến Kim.
