  1. What a shame they discontinued it; it’s a gorgeous fragrance. It transported me to a field of white flowers, super fresh and luminous. To me, it felt creamy, though I’m sure that’s the animalic touch giving it a soft skin vibe, like floating among flowers with something warm and tender. I was head over heels for it, and it always made people compliment me when I wore it. My sister took all the Marc Jacobs perfumes she could find, but I could only be loyal to this one. When they discontinued it, I bought gardenia plants just so I wouldn’t lose the scent.

    I absolutely love it; it’s my favorite perfume of all. I discovered it while working as housekeeping at a luxury hotel for wealthy people. I was cleaning a room, and as soon as I approached the bathroom, I smelled this amazing scent. I fell in love at first sniff and searched through all the guest’s items to figure out what it was. It lasts forever; it’s very oriental. First, you smell jasmine, then a base note comes in to complete it—I’m not sure if it’s musk or an orange blossom I don’t see listed. It’s perfect for everything. I use it for special occasions because of the price, but if it weren’t for that, I’d wear it every day. It reminds me of a pool smell and good things. I don’t know how to describe it more, and I feel like this review doesn’t do it justice.

    I can’t believe there’s no review for this perfume given how exquisite it is. I had tried it years ago and don’t remember feeling that spark I got today when I tried it again. What a wonderful aroma, so long-lasting, and what a great trail! And the price is great; even if it’s not cheap, the truth is it’s a great value because it lasts so long. I give it an absolute 10. It reminds me of the Private Collection tuberose and gardenia… since I already have that, I decided not to buy it, but I must clarify that the drydown, after about 3-4 hours, is slightly different from the tuberose and gardenia in this Lauder, but it doesn’t fade or disappear; it’s always there. I think I will buy it after all, hehe.
