ICL
I was looking for Paloma Picasso and accidentally bought this whole black bottle, but to my olfactory memory, after all these years, it sounds no different from the one I wore in the nineties. Now that I also have Cabochard by Gres (the reformulated version with the black bow), I’ve realised how similar they are; only that the latter is much more affordable. They are glorious eighties perfumes that were a joy to wear, not for the shy, loved or hated, and that shouted ‘here I am’. Thanks to them still existing, they offer relief to my nose, saturated today with cloying caramel scents that invade us (and, by the way, I like them, but I need to escape them frequently). It’s true that the reformulation has reduced the intensity, but at least they last four hours on my skin, which is much more than I can get from other brands that are even more expensive, so I’m happy to have them.
