  1. It was a gift and I absolutely loved it: very feminine yet powerful at the same time. The longevity is incredible. My older sister loved it too. The downside is that it’s discontinued here, but I still have half a bottle that is pure gold.

  3. I love it. It was the first perfume I could buy with my own money; I tried it in a store over fifteen years ago. At first, it’s a bit heavy, but within minutes it becomes exquisite and softens. It’s definitely feminine and elegant. It’s not youthful, but it doesn’t make you look older either; it’s a mature scent, not old. Whenever I wear it, people say it smells like roses: soft, but definitely noticeable.

It’s feminine and elegant—neither too youthful nor does it make you look old; it’s a mature scent. People always say it smells like roses: soft, but definitely noticeable.

  5. It’s a classic that lasts forever: jasmine, musk, and amber combine perfectly. It has that touch of orange from orange blossoms, but without being citrusy; it’s wonderful. I like almost all of Lanvin’s perfumes because they cater to every taste. This floral won’t disappoint you.

  6. I LOVE IT!!! I first knew it from a sample and have bought it four times since then, unfortunately running into the bad luck that I can’t find it lately. It’s feminine, distinguished, and has character. I’m sure skin pH makes a difference; this one clings to me impressively. Lanvin makes great perfumes, thank you for that.

  7. I love it! I first knew it from a sample and have bought it four times since then, unfortunately running into the bad luck that it’s impossible to find lately. It’s feminine, distinguished, and has character. I’m sure our skin pH determines how the perfume develops; this one, in particular, clings to me impressively. Lanvin makes great perfumes in general, and I appreciate that.

  8. It’s no surprise some criticize it (I’ve seen English comments). I bought it blindly on sale and at first it didn’t appeal to me: it was heavy, classic, with a slightly musty note, yet very feminine and floral/fruity, almost metallic. Deep down, it’s good and tempted me to use it, but it confused me. To me, it was a dissonant and chaotic orchestra, though artistic. I got halfway through the bottle because I liked it, but I gifted the rest to my mother and she absolutely loved it. The longevity and projection are amazing.
