Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
It’s pure 1950s style: that sweet, delicate, refined girl, like a young aristocrat or middle-class maiden searching for her first love, in full-skirted dresses and exquisite hairstyles. Imagine Debbie Reynolds singing Tammy from her window with this scent. What does it smell like? An intense, romantic, talcum-powdered, slightly soapy floral, reminiscent of Diorissimo, Amour Amour by Patou, or Muguet des Bois by Coty. It smells very much like those classics. It’s a lovely floral that I’m delighted to have in my collection. Although quite different from L’Interdit in composition, both share the concept of being talcum-powdered, soapy, and soft florals. This review is about the original cologne, not the reformulation.
