I like Vent Vert, but I don't love it.

Vent Vert has some wonderful *green* notes, that are really enjoyable, and this is the aspect of the fragrance that I'm most attracted to (being...

I found Jolie Madame in a little shop in Bermuda when I was 14. It smelled wonderful on me and my dad bought me a tiny bottle of the perfume. Every time I wore it I received numerous complements...

I was given a bottle of this as a present about 10 years ago. It doesn't work on my skin. All I get is lily of the valley mixed with a bit of leather, but mainly lily of the valley. It smells one...

On me Ivoire is creamy and smoky rather than clean, light or soapy. The first spray bombards me with sharp green notes that tickle my nose and almost make me want to sneeze, but it settles down...

I'd been wanting to try this and was ecstatic to get this as an extra from a very generous lady. It's lovely on first application, but dries down to old-style powdery that I just can't like. It...

When I first tried Ivoire, I thought it was merely a greener, lighter version of Bandit but with a bit more soap and powder. However I never felt that that that characterization squarely hit the...

This is a soft scent on me....maybe my nose is out of whack. I did notice that the top is a nice floral, nothing sharp or offensive, and that the base has a little animalic going on. Just what...

I found Jolie Madame's strong oakmoss-chypre-leather top note off putting and thought here we go again, another Bandit or Chypre de Coty tiger. After an hour it calmed down and I could detect the...

I bought this unsniffed from the Internet. I have to say that it is not what I expected. It is very floral in the begining, very very sweet but that scent fades in 10 mins. I do get the sweetened...

The first time I put this on, I was dismayed by the intensely sweet, candied violet smell. I used too little of it and did not leave it on long enough. I reapplied it, using alot. It is...

When i was a kid my mother used to make a dinner called chicken curry. It was an amalgamation of all kinds of spices like cumarin, clary sage, and curry. It had a very strong smell to it and it...

I wanted to like this based on the great reviews here.... but I didn't like it at all. Maybe the sample I got isn't the freshest? On me, this turned into the most musty, stale-smelling old lady...

Ivoire, how I love your creamy,haughty elegance!
It is hard to do justice to the various notes of this wonderful scent, but the sum of the parts is perfection.
