When I first put this on it was a very realistic mandarin citrus fragrance (almost a little fizzy like orange sherbert) very refreshing. I had no problems with the staying power I could smell the...

One of Olivia Giacobetti's creations. . All of Ms. Giacobetti's fragrances are light, well balanced, almost ethereal; her fragrances can float on gossamer wings or echo subtle nuances of space and...

I bought this when it first came out, but I found the "zip" of the fragrance a bit too harsh for my nose. I wished it would be zesty but a bit softer. And like all the previous posters, it had very...

I must concur that this is a truly delightful, playful, flirty, fresh, sweet citrus, gorgeous summer scent that lasts a whole of 2 minutes before completely changing into jasmine/white flowers...

The first minute of this fragrance is heavenly -- a sweet, tart, honeyed, full-bodied orange scent that sends me into fits of delight. However this lovely brightness gets progressively more muted...

Manderine Tout Simplement could have bee a fabulous frgrance for me, if only it had some staying power. It opens with the most succulent burst of manderin, with all its sweetness, and tartness....

Let us consider the basic criteria for a scent I am likely to fall hard for: Citrus, especially bright, juicy citrus? Check. Light jasmine? Check. Cedar? Check. Acceptable lasting power? Check. (I...

*LIMITED EDITION* Very true to scent especially on first application -- like freshly squeezed tangerine juice. Quickly evaporates down to a hint of orange creamsicle and then bath soap. (Supposedly...

I totally agree with all of LoveSmell's review. Too bad this costs as much as it does, because if it were cheaper I would spritz myself all day. Because the lasting power is nil. Sillage is nil. I...

Mandarine Tout Simplement is actually not so simple. Beneath the initial burst of sharp and sweet orange lies a heart of frangipani and jasmine. I would love to separate the two parts and have an...

Dinahad nails it - the fragrance starts out with a beautiful, juicy, slightly green mandarin scent touched with zesty orange peel, but ends up with a cedary-vaguely floral note. Progressively, it...

The opening notes of this zingy fragrance were among the best citrus I've ever tried. It was so tart and juicy that it literally made my mouth water. It was as though the bottle containes squeezed...

I was lucky to test this today, before its official release. It is the 3rd of L'Artisan's summer limited editions (after Ananas Fizz in 2004 and Extrait de Songe in 2005) and will be available in...
