  Alahine is very feminine, delicate and sophisticated, nothing invasive, perfect for those seeking appreciable fragrances but not too intense. You wear it and you’re off in a cloud of pure well-being. It evokes something pleasant and refined. The base floral is noticeable, and the most prominent note is benzoin. The bergamot isn’t very apparent at first, but the ylang-ylang is. On me, it’s quite talc-like and ambered, with great class. I love it because it’s not heavy; it’s elegant for everyday wear. I see it suitable for any age and it suits cold weather well, though it also works for spring or cool summer evenings. The vanilla is very subtle, nothing cloying, perfectly balanced. The bottle is a dream. This and Café Cabanel are my absolute favourite women’s fragrances from this French house.

  My sample set has just arrived and I haven’t tried them all yet, but I can already tell where each one is heading. This is one of my favourites, it’s holding up well, and I think I’ll absolutely love it.

  I’m a big fan of Teo Cabanel, but Alahine has been my biggest disappointment. I read thousands of positive reviews, yet on my skin it smells strange, like pickles in vinegar. I don’t understand. Once that odd opening fades, I do notice the floral, yellow note with pepper and patchouli. When it dries down, it has that warm, woody, vanilla-like quality that usually pleases people, but that initial scent never goes away and, unfortunately, means I can’t enjoy it at all. I’m not sure if my sample is faulty (the rest of the set smells fine) or if it’s reacting terribly with my skin, but I haven’t liked it a bit and wouldn’t recommend buying it blind.
