Call Me Sienna (120)
Lancome Call Me Sienna (120) L’Absolu Rouge Cream Lipstick (2022) ($32.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a vivid, deeper coral-red with fine, gold pearl woven throughout a luminous finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in a single, fluid stroke, which could be built up to full coverage.
The texture was lightweight, thinner but not clingy, and emollient enough to be comfortable to apply and to wear. It wore nicely for five hours and felt hydrating while worn.

Formula Overview
$32.00/0.12 oz. - $266.67 Per Ounce
It was recently reformulated to be even more hydrating with "18 hour comfort" and "8 hour hydration" paired with an "ultra-creamy texture" and "intense color" that gives a "luminous finish." They distinguish the 18-hour and 8-hour claims from it being long-wearing, so presumably they are referring to how one's lips feel after the product as worn away or been removed (after fading).
Most shades had full color payoff in a single layer, while a few shades had to be built up. The texture was smooth, lightweight, and emollient without being too slippery or too thick, so the lipstick applied comfortably across my lips but wasn't prone to settling into my lip lines. The formula was more forgiving of lip texture imperfections and seemed to smooth out my lip lines more often than not.
They have a powdery floral scent, which is noticeable more in the tube than on, but it had a bit of taste initially to me. The updated formula felt very comparable to the last iteration, possibly a little lighter-weight and smoother on my lips. They wore between four and six hours and were hydrating.

Call Me Sienna is my perfect spring all the way into early autumn type of toasty, spicy goodness! I love the hint of gold shimmer in it, too!
Nancy, thank you. I think I will love it too. I miss shimmer in a lot of mattes I have been buying
I think both lipsticks are gorgeous – Call Me Sienna is a perfect coral shade, whilst Caprice is an excellent quality red.
Wow, these are both so pretty!
I’m surprised that I like Call Me Sienna as much as I do. Generally I don’t look twice at coral shades, but there’s something with this lipstick that makes me think I could wear it. I think it is the gold and that it is so luminous.
That I love Caprice de Rouge isn’t surprising at all. That I only have two dupes is.
