I bought it for my 8-year-old daughter; now she’s 9. When she tried it on me, it didn’t give good results; I’m into rebellious fragrances, but on my daughter… ohhh for goodness sake, it’s as if it were made for her, a little lady, in a trail of innocent white flowers and incense. You hug her and want to stay because it’s pure innocence, delicate and fine as she is, a warm talcum scent. I don’t know the original and I want to buy it for her as hers is out of stock. It lasts on her clothes until she washes them and on her skin for the whole day. While I decide between the original version or repeating this one, she’s using Benetton Rose, which is pure jasmine but not powdery like Anais Anais. Definitely, Anais Anais isn’t for everyone; I assure you that.
It transports me to my childhood and early youth. It was my first perfume, gifted by my mother. It’s sweet and feminine, but not shy; it makes itself noticed. Very fragrant and long-lasting. Exquisite and timeless. I don’t notice a difference from the 80s version. The bottle, cap, and atomiser have improved notably.
My beloved Anais Anais. The first time I tried it, as a teenager, I hated it. It’s not that my tastes have changed; it’s clearly that it was reformulated, and in my opinion, the new version surpasses the 1978 one by 100%. Another thing that happens to me is that I don’t like it in autumn-winter, but yes when it’s hot (unlike many who say they can’t stand it). In winter, I feel the lily of the valley and hyacinth more strongly; it becomes a drier, powdery, astringent floral. With the heat on my skin, the sweet chords are enhanced; you can notice the honeysuckle. It seems like a different perfume. The longevity is excellent, much better in warm weather than in winter. About 8 hours with moderate projection. I love it; it’s my second 100 ml bottle and it’s halfway through. It’s in my top ten of all time.
This reformulated fragrance into eau de toilette, although it has the same base, is not the same as the original eau de parfum… DISAPPOINTED!!
They gifted me this current version and I don’t like it at all. They say the old EDP was brilliant; I don’t know why they make these changes to mess it up so thoroughly; what a pity. I remember a cousin had it 10 years ago and I liked it; I don’t recall if it was eau toilette or parfum.
I join the list of those who love Anais Anais and associate it with childhood. I’m from the 80s and remember this beautiful, innocent perfume of aunts, grandmothers, and little girls. I was given it when I was 8 or 9. I didn’t appreciate it then, but it left a deep mark. For me, it is unmistakable. In the 80s, girls played with dolls; I preferred boys’ games or pin and pon. I was never very feminine nor tomboyish, but this perfume made me feel like a little lady, growing up, escaping macho stereotypes. I used perfumes from my brothers, Paco and Pibes, and I liked them. Wearing Anais today is for rebels, for those who are non-conformist. It goes against the current gourmand trend. Anais is for those who don’t fit in, who are hated or loved for stereotypes. This year I decided to buy a large bottle because they say L’Oreal will stop administering Cacharel and it might not continue. It saddened me; it’s a favourite house. I have the 2004 version and I don’t notice major changes; it’s the same scent from my childhood. The longevity is impeccable, surrounded by subtle but persistent flowers. I love bathing, putting on Anais, and waking up to that aroma. I use it in autumn, ideal for any season. It’s the perfume when you don’t know what to wear. For winter, I prefer woody scents, but I reserve these florals for fresh autumn days, sunny, yellow, having a coffee on the pavement. It’s wonderful how it takes you back. Every time I use it, I see myself in my childhood room, playing with pin and pon, with my white opaline bottle. I associate the bottle with the little doll from the 80s Coqueterías lotion, with a white opaline bottle, a blonde girl’s caplet with ringlets and a red hat. It was a bathroom ornament. Today, it’s a perfume that only evokes the hat. Anais evokes happy moments from my childhood, exclusively from that stage. For my adolescence, I chose strong, characterful perfumes, like those my mother used, with which we stopped sharing tastes. Anais was a gift from a great-aunt; I only had one bottle and I remember it to this day. What more can I say… the beauty and innocence of the advertising, mysterious, nothing aggressive or sexual, just mystical, fairy-tale-like. It’s the perfume of good women, of kindness, innocence, subtlety, delicacy, the embrace of mothers and grandmothers. I suspect we use it today to bring out the inner child, to remember the shine of our soul. Every time we spray a little, we become innocent girls again. For me, it’s not sexual, not for show, it’s formal, for the being you want to impress. I evoke a pure, sincere love, nothing selfish. It’s elegant, sublime, ideal for walks in the sun in the city. Super urban, I wouldn’t take it on holiday. It’s about bringing flowers and country aromas to the city so you remember beauty beyond the concrete. Eternal and ethereal. I think someone in heaven still remembers Anais Anais.
I’m a 21st-century girl who has tried this fragrance. It has nothing youthful about it, nor is it childish, yet it smells wonderful. It remains timeless and you’ll always find it in perfumeries. I doubt there’s anyone who wouldn’t like it. It opens with powdery, citrus notes that are dizzying due to their potency, then settles but remains present. It has good longevity. Blindly, it smells of bergamot, citrus, and hyacinth, with more anise, vetiver, and that final spicy touch that makes it less sweet. Between this and the Premier, I choose this one. The Premier is more citrusy and less sweet, and I love sweetness. I give it 9/10. After hours, I’ve absolutely loved it. The worst part is that it layers beautifully with Libre and YSL; I’m in heaven because it smells like the best thing in my life. It brings touches reminiscent of Poison and woody notes of myrrh.
I saw it on TV in the 90s and always wanted one. Now that I’ve tried it, it reminds me of Narciso Rodriguez for Her, but less ‘stuffy’. Both are rich, talcum-powdered, powdery, and sweet, but I’m sticking with Anais.
Total disappointment. It was my first expensive perfume at 16; I remember it as innocent and delicious, like cotton candy. I hadn’t owned it for years and bought it because they said it was softer than the original… and what a letdown. It bears no resemblance to the original. For heaven’s sake, change the name because this is no longer Anais Anais.
This isn’t Anais Anais, believe it or not, it’s a different story altogether. It smells like a forced, potent vintage floral with flowers everywhere. On my skin, it almost gives me a rash, so I’d advise testing it before buying blindly.
I don’t like it at all, it gives me a headache. Nowhere near youthful. I love vintage scents, but Anaïs Anaïs has disappointed me by 200%. I don’t recommend buying it blindly.
Like most, this is a very sentimental perfume for me. It was the first perfume I had, a gift from my mum when I was about 11 or 12. I wore it during my secondary school years when I had a severe obsession with The Beatles. This perfume is cemented in my memory with nostalgia and the music of the 60s and the innocence of pre-adolescence. Now, almost 20 years later, I’m back to Anaïs Anaïs with that tenderness and my review is along those lines, especially because I understand that this is a perfume that smells like ‘old lady’ to many people who don’t keep it in their memory. I also want to mention that, for me, this new version is excellent; it’s a magnificent tribute to the original from the 70s. To start with, this fragrance opens with some very particular flowers; lily of the valley, honeysuckle and ylang-ylang presented in an earthy and green way, as if you were smelling them directly from the ground, not from a vase. I feel the whole bouquet of flowers, together with hyacinth, lily, rose, very powdery, diffused, ethereal, definitely in a feeling of the era, very different from current sensibilities. If you have seen the advertising photographs from the time, you will perfectly understand what I mean. Once Anaïs Anaïs has dried on the skin, moss, musk and sandalwood appear with more force. I even sense the incense that the perfume had with the original formulation (although I don’t know if it’s more my memory). The perfume becomes a bit woody, a bit more mossy, but remains floral throughout its life. To me, it seems a very delicate aroma, reminding me of lace, nylon stockings, floral and light dresses from the late 70s, long loose hair. It is a perfume that, although it can be worn by anyone, tries to evoke that image of femininity from 50 years ago and I think it does it very well. This formulation still feels just as strong and long-lasting, although I miss the lavender and incense note that the original had. On skin it lasts more than 10 hours and on clothes until it is washed. It is a noticeable perfume and whenever my friend wears it I can always perceive it. Apart from that, it is very versatile. Definitely a flagship perfume. In general, I think it’s a great perfume that remains very current despite the years. I will treasure it as long as it continues to be produced.
I used to wear this perfume frequently in the late 90s. Back then, floral scents didn’t suit me, so I developed a certain dislike for this fragrance and similar aromas. Some time ago I started to get saturated with so many sweet, fruity scents; I switched to floral-fruity and then to gourmands, but I needed a different accompaniment… and so, I fell into this perfume again. I bought it with misgivings, knowing its scent was very different and that was what I needed… and so, I absolutely love using it now! For an EDT, it has excellent longevity and sillage; it accompanies me, I feel it permanently. I feel this bouquet of tender and sharp flowers, with that touch of green stems and leaves… as if they were wet! OMG, it really gives me a necessary pause to come back to using my sweeter fragrances after a few days. It is true that it has a vintage touch, but it is absolutely wearable. I wouldn’t wear it in summer. I love it and recommend trying it.
I think I will always have an Anaïs Anaïs in my collection, even if it’s just a miniature. This perfume conveys calm and happiness to me, bringing back so many childhood memories that I don’t mind smelling something vintage from time to time. This is pure floral, like walking through a garden. I think anyone from a girl to an older woman can wear it; if it’s vintage in the end, it always comes back.
To me, Anaïs Anaïs is something subtle, romantic and vital; it has something that reminds me of dew on little flowers one spring morning, giving me the urge to read quietly and listen to music after a shower and some sprays of Anaïs Anaïs. It feels very light yet present, although I notice the opening is a bit alcoholic and uncomfortable, which doesn’t matter to me as it settles quickly. One of my favourite notes is hyacinth; once it settles, I notice it a bit soapy but tender and delicate. On my skin, it smells floral practically all the hours I wear it, always with jasmine and hyacinth standing out; the green, wood and moss don’t stand out too much, perhaps the moss a little more but without exaggeration. I have a vague memory of the old one; my aunt wore it when I was small in the 90s and there is indeed something similar between this and the memory. But I don’t dare compare them because I wouldn’t be objective. Although I suppose we are never objective when talking about remote memories, and that’s fine too. To me, it captures the ‘essence’ or its style. It feels like an evocative fragrance not only due to its mass popularity years ago but for its light, romantic and melancholic will.
This perfume smells like any old lady in her 70s. Horrible perfume, it smells like cheap baby perfume with a higher concentration of floral scent. I don’t recommend buying it unless you want to smell like an elderly woman.
I tried it a few days ago and I liked it very much; I knew it from smelling it on a neighbour who always wore it and it didn’t grab my attention, but… either she has changed (reformulation) or I. I think more likely that I didn’t used to like florals, but lately… Anaïs smells of honesty, it’s easygoing, I don’t know, it smells of integrity and simplicity. It reminds me of Jennifer López’s Glow, but it’s prettier.
I tried it to see how the reformulation had turned out; I owned it in the 90s and the first spray lacked that floral, romantic bomb of before. It did remind me of it in the dry-down, though it doesn’t last or project as well, and at first it even seemed like a different perfume. I still don’t know whether to buy it or not.
My perfume story begins with Anaïs Anaïs. Some time ago, in a café with some friends, I perceived such a beautiful scent… that the next day I had to get my hands on a little bottle of this elixir that I couldn’t get out of my head. And from that day on, it has been with me. It was then that I realised this little ‘addiction’ couldn’t stay there. That blend of white flowers with rose and a musky base turns this fragrance into a classic that gently transports me to memories of my earliest childhood.
I adore this very floral and soft, delicate and feminine perfume. It gives me great nostalgia as I knew it through a dear friend with whom I used to take the little ones to the square and school. A wonderful time, but she is no longer with us. Recently I asked to try the current version and was surprised by how different it was from my memory; I found it more serious, perhaps I am mistaken. I think I will buy it anyway because something of the original remains.
It came out vintage to me. Not for me, but thanks for letting me try it. In my opinion, it smells like an old classic, but the truth is it’s a good perfume due to its great projection and longevity. To me, it smells green, floral, and soapy.
I used this perfume when I was very young and could never abandon it. I love those soft yet persistent flowers, that powdery sensation. It has good performance as it is an affordable perfume with a moderate trail. For me, it is a timeless beauty.
This was the first fragrance I saw in my friend’s mother’s dressing table in 2014. She had gifted it to her and was so happy she showed both of us the fragrance. I always kept it present in my olfactory memory, remembering it so floral, powdery, and beautifully creamy. I bought the 30ml in January on offer, and upon smelling it, I was transported back to that year. This was the first fragrance that made me fall in love with the classics: those timeless treasures passed down through generations. It smells clean, like freshly applied floral cream on skin straight from the shower. I have only tried the Toilette; I intend to acquire the Perfume as I find the Toilette a little weak. I imagine this beautiful bottle in the dressing table of the Russian Royal Duchesses, regrettably murdered by the communists, in a room with floral wallpaper and many porcelain ornaments. This is from another era, yet it is so lovely that feeling it transports you back to good memories. I imagine it in a morning in a beautiful forest with a lovely period dress. That is Anais Anais. The name ‘fairy perfume’ is well-deserved; it smells like a beautiful rose on your skin, and you feel it occasionally when wearing it. Today I am a collector of vintage fragrances. Thank you, Cacharel Anais Anais. You were my first love.
A floral, powdery, yet not cloying.
It was the first perfume I ever had, and this reformulation ruined it. Zero value. DEP Anais. A real shame.
I had this in my youth; it was a craze among girls of my generation and was the first ‘fine’ perfume my dad gave me. Forty years later I have it again, and although it is not a scent for today as it is too floral and slightly heavy, I do like smelling it because it brings back so many memories.
I had this perfume when I was a child; I never liked it, but as it was a gift from my father, I treasured it. It seemed too strong and cloying to me.
Very floral, very vintage, very feminine but extremely matronly. I dislike it entirely.
This was my mother’s first ‘expensive’ perfume; before this, I only knew cologne or something from Avon. It is very floral, yet not powdery, which I like, although not for me personally as I hate florals. It is a lovely perfume that evokes fond memories: floral, creamy, and beautiful. I insist, Cacharel makes lovely perfumes at good prices. Being so floral, it can feel a bit heavy, but if you are a lover of florals, I believe such an iconic perfume should not be missing from your collection.
Smells old, but not the typical old lady kind; rather, elegant, like a vintage bus perfume.
I love it, I loved it always and I will until the end of time. It was one of my first expensive perfumes. Then it became part of a beautiful era. I love that it remains current, although the reformulations made it less persistent. It reminds me of happy moments. The jasmine and neroli wrap me. The latest reformulations have turned it into a shadow of what it was, but I still buy it. It’s a must-have. It has a somewhat vintage DNA and that makes it wonderful. It’s a great perfume.
It was iconic. I met this fragrance through my mother, who used it, and like many comments, it’s one of those that brings memories, a scent associated with emotions and affective bonds towards mothers and grandmothers. I think it’s because in those days it was a real bomb, like much of what was available in the 80s. I bought it for my mother a year ago; initially it’s the same scent, but over time it dilutes to nothing… what a pity. It’s so reduced that very little of what it was remains, just the top notes, with that they convince you it’s the same as always… well no, they’re letting it die under the idea that it’s vintage, a shame.
Literally smells like your grandmother’s flower garden, which she would currently be 100 years old.
It’s alright for summer. It’s a fragrance without more.
I adore this perfume and it reminds me of my youth. We’d pass with a friend who also used it, with our babies, and we were surrounded by a cloud of flowers. Now I notice it quite differently, it has no sillage and is more old-ladyish. But I still like it a lot and I’ve used it again.
I don’t know how Fragrance allows anyone to review and write comments like ‘old-ladyish’, ‘old’, etc. Whoever truly understands perfumery doesn’t express themselves like that. A perfume has no age; the age is of the one who uses it, and if you didn’t like it, it doesn’t mean others won’t. I just say that this perfume on my mum’s skin and mine smells different; on hers it doesn’t last and smells oddly ambered, whereas on mine it lasts a long time, something powdery and floral. My mum loves how it smells on me. So what you read in the comments might suit you or not. Know before you buy.
White floral, innocent yet old-fashioned. That contradiction is the key. It doesn’t smell ‘like an old lady’ in itself; it smells like a memory: of a dressing table, of a special gift, of a carefully kept bottle. My grandmother gave it to me today; my first impression was confused: youthful yet vintage. When I got home and tried it again, my mum turned around saying ‘there’s an Anaïs Anaïs smell’ and I was surprised because it was exactly that. It was my mum’s first ‘expensive’ perfume she asked her grandmother for; that’s when I understood everything. It doesn’t smell like an old lady, it smells like a white flower on a dressing table. It’s good for everyday use, not for impressing, just for being. It accompanies without seeking attention or seduction. I wouldn’t use it as a classic neck and wrist perfume; I’d put it behind the ears (almost secret), in the elbow crease, and perhaps on the collarbone. In small quantities, it transmits a romantic and ethereal aura. But if I’m like me and I’m 18, I use the contradiction to my advantage: I use it as a statement, ruined innocence. I don’t try to modernise it, I make it uncomfortable. Young face and tired, arriving late to a party, covered in leather, smudged eyeliner and messy hair, and the perfume, the least rock element of the outfit… it ends up misplaced in time and space. ‘Why would someone like that use this grandmother’s perfume?’
They gave it to me for Three Kings’ Day and I haven’t thrown it out the window out of respect for whoever gave it to me. If you like flowers, here you are to fill up. To me, it smells like a grandmother, even though I don’t remember mine. Call it vintage if you like, I don’t know. In general, it makes a heavy scent, gives headaches, and to me, it causes fatigue.
My mother’s little perfume; smelling it feels like reliving one of her hugs. It smells of flowers, talcum powder, and cleanliness, very feminine.
I love it! I had a flanker in my teens, and now that I’ve been gifted this, it reminds me of the other one quite a bit, almost like they’re the same. It smells of talcum powder, cleanliness, of sitting down calmly to get ready. To those who say it smells like ‘an old lady’, what they suffer from is ageism; every era has its fragrances, it’s like saying The Beatles is just for old people. The truth is, it’s a very pleasant perfume.
