  1. It was a gift and I adored it: very feminine yet powerful at the same time. The longevity is incredible. My older sister loved it immensely. The downside is that it’s no longer sold here, but I keep half a bottle which is pure gold.

  2. It was a gift and I loved it. It’s very feminine and powerful at the same time, and the longevity is wonderful. My older sister loved it too. Unfortunately, it’s discontinued in my country, but I still keep half a bottle which I treasure.

  3. I love it. It was the first perfume I bought with my own money; I tried it in a shop over 15 years ago. At first, it’s a bit heavy, but within minutes it becomes exquisite and soft. It’s feminine and elegant, neither too youthful nor making you look old; it’s a mature scent. People always say it smells of roses, subtle but noticeable.

  4. I love it. It was the first perfume I could buy with my own money; I tried it in a shop over fifteen years ago. At first, it’s a bit heavy, but within minutes it becomes exquisite and softens. It’s definitely feminine and elegant. It’s not youthful, but it doesn’t make you look older; it’s a mature scent, not old. Whenever I wear it, people say it smells of roses: subtle, but definitely noticeable.

  5. It’s a classic that lasts for ages: jasmine, musk, and amber combine perfectly. It has that touch of orange from the orange blossom but isn’t citrusy; it’s wonderful. I like almost all of Lanvin’s perfumes because there’s something for every taste. This floral won’t disappoint.

  6. I love it! I met it through a sample and have bought it four times since then, unfortunately finding it impossible to get hold of lately. It’s feminine, distinguished, and characterful. I’m sure our skin’s pH determines how a perfume develops; this one, in particular, adheres to me impressively. Lanvin makes very good perfumes in general, and I’m grateful for that.

I’m sure skin pH makes a difference; this one clings to me impressively. Lanvin makes very good perfumes, thank you for that.

  8. I’m not surprised some criticise it (I’ve seen English comments). I bought it blindly on offer and it didn’t take to me at first: it was heavy, classic, with a slightly musty note, yet very feminine and floral/fruity, almost metallic. Deep down it’s good and tempted me to wear it, but it confused me. To me, it was a dissonant, chaotic orchestra, albeit artistic. I used half a bottle because I liked it, but gifted the rest to my mother and she adored it. The longevity and projection are brilliant.
