Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
It lives up to its name in every way: a very natural lilac that hits hard and dominates the blend, with a green angelica touch that makes it fresh, feminine, and perfect for anyone who loves this flower.
Totally agree: it smells like freshly cut lilacs, with those fresh stems from the green note. It’s super organic, nothing like other florals. The sillage is intimate but projects just enough for me to enjoy it myself. Lasts about 6 hours, though I reapply often because it’s intoxicating to feel that floral burst again.
Aerin did a masterful job with a minimalist cut; the lilacs are hyper-realistic and natural with premium quality. While there are other notes, the lilacs take the lead. It’s elegant, feminine, pure, and peaceful—ideal for a wedding. Longevity is extremely high, sillage is medium. Try it before buying.
I bought it blindly on sale, and it smells different from anything I know. At first, it’s an intense floral, but then it improves; it’s unique and elegant for special events. In Chile, no one guesses what it is. I also have Ikat Jasmin, which is another dream.
I bought this blind because it was half price (this was the only scent available). It smells unlike anything I know. At first, the scent seemed a bit odd and too floral, but after a few minutes, it really opened up and improved. Either way, it’s unique and elegant, perfect for special occasions. I also have Ikat Jasmin (also on sale) and find it a dream. No one could guess what perfume this is, given how exclusive it is here in Chile.
Couldn’t resist it. Since I tried my favorite A drop d’Issey, I’ve been hunting for perfumes with lilac. This one shares some jasmine and orange blossom with it. After reading great reviews, I bought it as a Christmas gift. The truth is, they don’t resemble each other: Lilac Path is clearly spring-like, with a gorgeous lilac (especially at the start) mixed with fine, exquisite green notes. As it dries down, I notice lots of honeysuckle. It conveys calm. I’m fascinated by it, a 10/10 scent, but it has a major flaw: extremely low longevity and sillage for the price. I almost see it as a personal indulgence, for when I feel like taking a country walk in spring, passing through hedges of lilacs and other flowers.
FRESH LILACS WITH A MORNING DUSTING OF RAIN. Reminds me of a bouquet of lilacs just picked early in the morning. You can also detect jasmine and galbanum, which adds a lovely green note. It’s a linear, soft, fresh floral scent with a subtle woody undertone. The quality of the ingredients really shines through; it doesn’t project much, just enough to be noticed by those around you. Lasts all day (10-12 hours). A beautiful fragrance.
I couldn’t resist after trying A Drop d’Issey and looking for lilacs. It shares jasmine and orange, but they’re very different. Lilac Path is spring-like, with lilacs standing out and an exquisite green; as it dries, the honeysuckle emerges and conveys calm. Smells like a 10, but longevity and sillage are low for the price. Better to enjoy personally, like a spring walk.
Fresh lilacs with morning dew. Evokes a bouquet pulled in the early morning, with jasmine and galbanum giving it a green edge. It’s linear, soft, and fresh-floral with a powdery hint. High-quality ingredients, sillage is just right to share, and it lasts all day (10-12 hours). Beautiful.
Creamy, elegant, and timeless bouquet with jasmine taking the lead. First-rate ingredients; the lilacs are natural at first, but the jasmine emerges majestically and takes over. It reminds me of Bouquet de la Reine or Diorissimo, an elegant bride on her day. The moderate sillage suits it well; it shouldn’t be loud. Fixation is extremely high; I smell it at 8 hours and even more on clothes. Thanks, Ziggy.
The name fits perfectly: the queen is the lilac, natural and pure. It surrounds you with flowers; it’s the star but makes a great duo with jasmine. It smells like a sunny spring day; it’s one of my favorites with top ingredients. As it settles on the skin, a powdery note emerges, and I notice a green not listed in the pyramid. It’s for dressing up in joy, femininity, and grace, for warm days and informal occasions. Tastes delicious, contemporary, not vintage. Medium sillage, high longevity. 10/10.
