Declaration of love

Oh you beautiful peony how you open so powerful, heavy and fragrant.
You juicy red apple how you refresh me.
You beautiful jasmine how you gently blossom.
You little delicate florets how lovely you are.
You single garden carnation how you creep into the composition.
You all encompassing, delicate, soft leather, how you envelop me like a second skin.
It's a poem that makes me dream....
of a time full of affection, security, freedom, carefree.
I love the smell of soft leather, which is really well done here in this cologne. The longevity of the scent is actually pretty decent too. The combo of leather and jasmine is me mitlerweile one of the dearest. It's well balanced here. In addition, a peony that shines especially at the beginning.

Belongs in my favorite fragrances list

Blissful memories

First experience of this fragrance, it stood out and captured my attention almost immediately.
Though notes have peony labelled, its quite subtle, mainly due to the strong apple notes however that is what gives it its unique scent coupled with suede base notes with hints of floral elements. Not a blind buy for those who don't enjoy explosive openings that fill the room.

The performance of this is however far from its impressive scent. Full projection around 1 hour before becoming soft (2-3 hours) hence will be easily cascaded by other scents unless regularly reapplied (if you are someone who likes to stand out in a crowd that is). That being said the initial 1st hour is impressive with sillage upto 3-4 feet. Real pleaser and compliment catcher however the performance is disappointing.

Sovereign outside, cuddly inside

Peony & Blush Suede has been a loyal and constant companion for me for a long time. Suitable in all situations and never pushy. I am surrounded by a wonderfully fresh touch of classic rose. The velvety wild note (by no means rough leather, but feminine, cuddly), perhaps even jasmine, is also noticeable. But this should only be noticeable for me and not for other people. At P & BS, I always imagine myself surrounded by an outer "fragrance ring" of rose, while I snuggle into an inner fragrance ring of leather. :D Take a deep breath and feel good. I like it very much!

Red apple in vintage touch

Crowd pleaser. I feel watery sweet Red apple with touch of carnation and suede. Suede and carnation gives vintage. Peony in there but not the always dominant. Scent isnt so heavy. In cologne form, causes bad longevity. This perfume is very suitable for all age of women.

Very helpful Review 19

To come down

I had an exhausting day today - with a cemetery - and a visit to the doctor - so no illuminating events.

To top it all off, the puppy is still sickly - and on my nerves you can give a violin concert.

I need something to come down, and I reach into the Malone box.
Peony and suede ?
I'll see what I can do.

I'm not always in the mood for the peony - but at the moment its beguiling scent suits me very well.
In addition, the strong carnation, which somehow has a captivating and lulling effect.
Some kind of sedative.

In addition, the jasmine, wrapped in soft suede, soothes and caresses.
The scent caresses back - and the red apple lends homeliness.

I immerse myself in the Malonese farmer's garden, which seems to have been painted by Kinkade.

May this idyllic picture accompany me to sleep

Pretty floral...

I got hold of a full 30ml bottle of this for a good price, I'm always the one to be looking for a bargain! I love suede and leather as notes so I was extremely happy and looked forward to trying it. Jo Malone's perfumes are always a bit hit and miss with me as they combine notes that very often don't sit well on my skin. However, this is an extremely pretty fragrance.

Initially, when I applied Peony & Blush Suede, I got a gorgeous waft of peony. It was sweet and rounded, fresh as if covered in morning dew. It isn't sugar sweet, but naturally sweet. This must be the apple, but it is used very cleverly to enhance the peony and isn't particularly noticeable by itself. At this initial stage I couldn't smell any of the other notes at all.

After about 15 minutes, the perfume deepens with the other florals coming into play to support the peony. This is necessary as peony isn't a particularly strong fragrance and I feel that the other florals just serve to round out the fragrance. The suede is very faint. Rather than being able to smell it, I can more sense it. It is as if the suede gives flesh to the flower petals and they seem velvety in texture. At this point the perfume is as developed as it gets. From hereon in Peony & Blush Suede is fairly linear. It lasted approximately four hours on my skin by which time it was just a powdery residue.

All in all, this is a very pretty fragrance. There isn't anything out of this world or mind blowing about it. Jo Malone hasn't broken any boundaries. If you are looking for a natural, sweet, floral for spring or summer that gently evokes velvet petals, this is the perfume for you. It is very inoffensive and could be worn anywhere. To be honest I wish it had a little more bite as it is so pretty, but I want it to have more of everything.

This is a restrained, quiet lady who doesn't make any ripples. She is pretty and gracious, but in the end rather unmemorable.

Won't Violate Anyone's Air Space ...

Sweet florals blend delicately into sun washed woods and stay close to the skin. I wish the apple would stay longer than as a top note but it disappears almost immediately. That would have made Peony & Blush Suede interesting. Otherwise, this boils down to a basic all-around similar feeling scent with a not quite distinct leather base that you know is there but mollified by the florals. Pleasant but relegated to the back shelf for days when a quiet fragrance is needed that won't offend a soul. Good for day wear with constant reapplication. Jo Malone's Peony & Blush Suede won't violate anyone's air space so it's an easy call to wear, but then again, it won't be one that you'll wear where folks will say "What's that glorious perfume you're wearing?"
