Satine by Lalique

What a treat for almost every sense. It smells like an elegant floral taffy with a touch of pink pepper, bergamot, jasmine, and caramelized gardenia, paired with exquisite, gentle vanilla. It’s as if you were born in a green and violet forest of patchouli and heliotrope, crisscrossed by paths of tonka bean seeds. Satine, you are a gourmand patchouli dressed up for a gala: you’ve painted your lips with a Prada lipstick, offering scented ‘Candies’ instead of words. You’ve brushed your hair with a comb that stole the wind from the Shalimar gardens, offering a floral and pink pepper breeze that never stops. You’ve wrapped yourself in a stole of the sweetest pink, ‘Pink Sugar’, cocooning yourself with its cotton candy, like spider silk. And you’ve dressed only in wings: those of the most beautiful and light ‘Angel’, which barely cover you but whose soft patchouli feathers caress and overwhelm you. Satine, you are all of this and more… or less? Because sometimes less is more. And you, all alone, are a Deity.

Born in a green and violet forest of patchouli and heliotrope, crisscrossed with paths of tonka beans. Satine: you are a patchouli-gourmand dressed in gala, with Prada lips and perfumed candies instead of words. You’ve combed your hair with a brush that stole the wind from the Shalimar gardens, offering a breeze of flowers and pink pepper. You’ve wrapped yourself in a cloak of sweet rose, like cotton candy, and dressed yourself only in the wings of a light angel that caresses you with soft patchouli feathers. Satine: you are all of this and more, or less. Because sometimes less is more. And you, all alone, are a deity.

This was a blind buy, thinking it would be similar to Le Parfum but less imposing; what it actually reminds me of is Jungle L’Elephant, softer and more wearable than this one. Great! I love L’Elephant, but I only wear it at home or for sleeping; it seems too strong and marked for wearing out with people. I can actually wear this all day. Hello and Happy 2016 to everyone. New review: putting one on each wrist makes them less similar. Although Satine has something in common, it is much less spicy and gourmand than L’Elephant. The truth is, I really like it, just like every other Lalique perfume I’ve tried so far.

New review: wearing one on each wrist, they aren’t as similar anymore. Although Satine has something to do with it, it’s much less spicy and gourmand than L’Elephant. The truth is, I like it a lot, just like I’ve been doing with every Lalique perfume I’ve tried so far.

I bought it blindly online and really appreciate your designs; I couldn’t find a tester even at El Corte Inglés. It was too spicy at first for my taste—I love vanilla, and the heliotrope blends well since I like that too, but the patchouli or the pepper just don’t work for me. In the end, when I like it the most, after three hours it fades quickly. We’re still getting to know each other; I don’t know if it will be a slow burn of love. For now, it’s been with me for a few days.

Correction to my previous comment where I said it reminded me of Lolita L—I don’t know why it sounded so familiar at first. Now, on a quiet night after a fresh shower, I gave it another try, and it changed completely; I can now smell the gardenia, tonka bean, and vanilla along with a very soft patchouli. All in all, a perfume I absolutely love. Sometimes you need to give a scent a few chances, and this time I got it right. Glad I bought it 🙂

Simply delicious. I tried it and was given a sample; it smells incredible, I can’t describe it, I hadn’t smelled anything like it, but I loved it, I want it. The only downside is the very high price.

What a delight! A super feminine, delicate, and elegant woody floral. It has that powdery, slightly sweet touch that absolutely makes me fall in love.
