Enchanted earth nymph vibes - heartbreakingly weak
This perfume actually makes me so sad because the scent itself is BEAUTIFUL, but the performance is horrifically bad!!!

Colette is my favorite from the house of TOCCA. It’s a unique smelling scent, with woody, citrusy, slightly powdery scent with a vanilla/ambery base. It’s a very intoxicating scent that men and women love when they get close to you, but from arms length away, the scent is barely detectable (unless you overspray the hell out of it). It’s a scent that reminds me of nature and that the girls that like to be one with the forest would wear. It’s a scent of an earth nymph. It’s surprisingly sexy and I think that’s because of the addition of the juniper berry note, which is commonly found in men’s frags and give perfumes a gin & tonic vibe. It’s absolutely stunning.

I think this scent is appropriate in all season for daytime use. It’s definitely not heavy or strong enough for night time and could use some sun and breeze to perform at its best. I have a bottle I’m thinking of decluttering just because of the terrible performance. It’s a shame because the bottle is beautiful and the scent is even more beautiful, but TOCCA definitely needs to work on their performance.

Unconventional Colette? More like a soft violet
Named after the scandal-ridden French writer (some may know the biopic with Keira Knightley) raises expectations of an idiosyncratic, or at least expressive fragrance. Colette also starts with a promising, tangy gin and tonic note, the juniper and lemon I clearly detect. The fun is quickly over, however, and in the drydown shy violet powder combines with amber and warm sandalwood, the spices and incense just preventing yawning boredom. The fragrance definitely gives off a well-groomed impression, but by no means a cool and forbidding elegance, it remains warm and inviting due to the slightly sweet vanilla note and musk. A Victorian lady on country trip, no French femme fatale.
I actually detect a similarity to Gypsy Water, but with more lemon and vanilla. Unfortunately, the durability and the sillage leaves much to be desired. Otherwise, a pleasant day companion, sensation will be caused herewith but certainly not.

fleeting lemon wafers
I like lemon-vanilla scents, including Lolita Lempicka Fleur de Corail and Adrienne Vittadini parfum. This one, too is quite pleasant - a soft pastry creme and citrus that calls up the image of sitting on a park bench eating lemon-filled wafers. However, this is one of the shortest-lasting scents I've tried. Twenty minutes after I applied it, I couldn't smell it more than a couple of inches from my wrist. As much as I like spraying perfume, every 15 minutes is really too often! Oh, well.

Soft, warm, powdery. Lemon and resins give it some bite, but this is a sophisticated and vintage feeling softie.
