    Jolie Madame is elegant without being stuffy, charming without being girlish, flirty without being sexual. This scent is the Gal Friday efficiently organizing your filing system while Miss Dior...

    Why haven't I discovered Jolie Madame earlier? It really 'wowed' me from the moment it hit my skin. It smells great from the start to the end. It's smooth suede, sophisticated, very classy,...

    At first I wasn't sure if I liked the top notes of this perfume, but then it changed into the most lovely scent. It last a long time even though I have the eau de toilette. I bought my 1.7 ounce...

    Another fragrance from my very young age. I love vintage fragrances. A bottle of the perfume was given to me by my very first boss out of college. He gave it to me because his mistress wore it. ...

    I bought a bottle of this unsniffed at a discount, and I'm glad I did because I probably would have passed it over if I got a whiff of this in a store, with its initial rush of old-ladyish florals....

    What a disappointment !I expected it to be greener, fresher. It is a very sweet scent. The tuberose is very noticeable, it pushes all the other notes in the shade. Mind you, I have been fond of...

    I am in love with Jolie Madame. My friend first introduced me to Bandit, and I had to get a bottle. Then she kindly sent me some vintage Jolie Madame, now I am in trouble. I need a lifetime supply...

    Wonderful orange-scented gadenia and neroli, persistent but gentle oakmoss, and miles and miles of soft leather. Jolie Madame is charming. Don't you want to invite her in for tea, compliment her on...

    As I am a fan of tobacco-y, leathery scents, I knew I would love Jolie Madame and bought it unsniffed. I'm not usually wrong about fragrances I know I will like and I was proven right again,...

    This is one of my fave fragrances. It's feminine and strong at the same time. You can smell the leather but it's not an overpowering leather scent, the violets soften it and make it a little sweet....

    I'm in *L O V E* with this one. It's one of those that it's hard to believe I've never tried, and haven't gotten to wear in all of my 40 plus years. I adore a large and growing bunch of deep...

    In the vial I detect sweet candy violets galore but when applied the first thing I sniff are aldehydes and an old fashioned perfumey-ness I didn't like too much. Good thing that it disappears in a...

    I read the list of notes and thought, this is either a train wreck or a great fragrance--a lavender-and-white-floral/leather/tobacco chypre! Then I lost control of the vial and ended up with more...

    I bought this perfume initially for my mother, but opened the bottle and tried it myself. I was so surprised how pretty it was - it is the smell of Paris! I left this bottle for myself, and bought...

    Jolie Madame is one of my all-time favorite fragrances. I have fond memories of Jolie Madame as worn by a mentor in the summer of 1968. Classic leather chypre with some violet.. Ideal casual and...

    The violet top notes did not smell right on me. They smelled like artificial banana! This was alarming to me. As it became more intense, I fought temptation to wash the scent off. I'm glad I did!!...
