Secret Joly (2018) - Oriza L. Legrand

A familiar surprise
A sample of this was given to me by a generous swap partner. I did a test spray in the sink, thought: Hm! Floral! - and left the room. When I came back some time later, the scent had developed, it was darker, spicier, heavier, and I thought:...

Gardenia - Fleur de Santé / Knut Wulff

Wonderful white floral from the 80s
I am reviewing a very well kept miniature bottle. In the opening, I am greeted by a fresh, realistic jasmine and something equally fresh, prickly green, like newly cut stems and leaves. This is followed by a full, rich, white...

Un Air de Samsara

Un Air de Samsara - Guerlain - 3 months ago

On a bad day, it smells like Samsara with toothpaste. On a good day, it's like a cool, sweet and fresh drink with citrus, mint and vanilla.

Underwhelmed by this. Not bad, but similar to other smoky vanillas from the same decade. Strong and long-lasting, but nothing unique.

Valentina di Guido Crepax

Valentina di Guido Crepax - Roveri & Aura - 4 months ago

Bottle

Green, lemony, summer morning fresh. Cedar woody, gently animalic. High quality, unisex, hint-of-Diorella, chypre light-feeling. Delightful.

Rose Cardin

Rose Cardin - Pierre Cardin - 4 months ago

Deep, juicy, wine-like rose-patchouli chypre. A fine specimen of its genre, but you must like patchouli to enjoy this, and sadly I do not.

St. Tropez

St. Tropez - Robertier - 4 months ago

From memory: a fresh, 70s-style aldehyde-rose-woody chypre à la Calandre and En Avril un soir.

Floral Musque

Luscious, sweet and musky carnation with some sandalwood. Similar to New York, New York from same brand, but a little juicier, less dusty.

La Rose

La Rose - Rochas - 5 months ago

I expected a dark rose on a heavy base, but found instead a very light, fresh pink rose. I'm surprised they made this back in 1949.

Gorgeous woody-oriental with sweet beeswax, but the strong cedar note tends to get stuck in my throat and can sometimes be a challenge.

Green, fleshy, almost tobacco-spicy orchid. Well-crafted and powerful, but not really a perfume that I am comfortable wearing.

Volage (Parfum)

Take vintage Opium, and add a pint of cream - that's Volage. Almost edible, and really yummy!
