Under the spell of Hypnôse
Hypnotize the senses? This fragrance can definitely do that. Sprayed on and BÄÄÄM - thundered right into the synapses.
The top note paralyzes with a really nice mandarin and a pinch of pepper. However, this beautiful, juicy note soon transforms into a wonderfully floral melange with a rich honey note.
Osmanthus is in the foreground, and you really have to like it. Honey fades noticeably as the fragrance progresses and osmanthus takes pole position for easily an hour. Rose creeps in from time to time - but cannot take first place and always remains discreetly in the background. This harmonious dance between these three notes goes on for a long time and absolutely hypnotizes me. I can't help but keep pressing my nose against the back of my hand. I am truly under the spell of this fragrance.
This floral heart becomes soft and powdery just before it loses some of its power. From this point on, it is almost caressing. Before that, the fragrance is a little provocative, I admit. But I love all facets of this fragrance.
This hypnotic masterpiece remains long, steady and strong. Until it fades into a finely interwoven base of labdanum, patch and tonka bean. The sweetness slips away, patch and labdanum then set the tone. Yes, the base is also beautiful. But the pearl of this fragrance is definitely the heart.

I've been debating whether or not to get it for two years now. The only thing stopping me is the question of when to wear it.
I can't give a clear answer to the question of whether I like Hypnôse Eau de Toilette or Hypnôse Senses better. Both are great, both are captivating or hypnotizing in their own way. Sense is a little more playful, both are sexy, both are worth the money.

A light, refreshing floral
I was instantly attracted to the beautiful, light peach-coloured bottle, so naturally I strode towards the Lancome fragrance counter, eager to test this new scent.

I was blown away by the loveliness of it all. Hypnose Senses is a light, refreshing floral that wears delicately on the skin.

The scent is certainly not loud or incredibly bold, rather it prefers to be subtle, yet softly feminine and in some ways it embodies a sense of girlish charm which is difficult to resist.

Some reviewers describe Hypnose Senses as being sweet. Well I agree to a certain extent, however it is more of a sweet rose, violet and jasmine type scent rather than being sugary or candy-like.

The lasting power is quite good and due to the subtleness of this fragrance, the scent stays very close to the skin giving it that calm yet intimate quality.

Some have mentioned that they find similarities between this fragrance and Coco Mademoiselle by Chanel. Personally I too can detect some similarities, however Hypnose Senses is much fresher and lighter, and where Coco Mademoiselle has a slight fruity hit, Hypnose Senses does not.

I'll admit that Hypnose Senses isn't overly unique, yet I find something very charming and appealing about this scent. My only criticism is not on the scent itself but on the bottle which is rather chunky and difficult to hold, with the lid also being rather stubborn and difficult to replace after use.

Far better than the classic Hypnose. more floral and spicy, here there's a real pleasant and well balanced bouquet
