I am not a huge fan of muguet , and Diorissimo being my mom' s signature scent I grew up with it, to the point of disliking it as my mom bathed in it!! I remember it being sharp, and...

Faint and hard to detect from the get-go. Serious sniffing produces a sticky vanilla with citrus and fruit notes and also a medicinal edge that is unpleasant. Overall, nothing to recommend it for me.

This is a beautiful vanilla, a bit gourmand, with a hint of spice, high quality scent
I own 2 other Collection scents and this one is my favorite!

Soliflore Gardenia. Not too much indole, which is anathema for me, so that's nice, but don't care for my gardenia to be so simple either. For Gardenia lovers only. Simple, linear, clean.

I had my eye on that one for a while, after sampling it I just wanted a bottle. I luckily bought one at 45% off, a great deal!! I find it elegant, high quality scent, it starts off with a...

This does not smell like the gardenia flower nor is it a close (or good) rendition of the scent.
The top green/bergamont/citrusy notes are alright.

I didn´t care about the original Feerie, but this little beauty is stunning! Fluffy, powdery, flowery-rosy - just lovely and far more sophisticated than the original Feerie. I can feel the roses...

Touted as a non-foody vanilla it sounded right up my alley. Unfortunately on me it is nothing but an incredibly sweet vanilla that brings to mind marshmallow fluff. The stuff that is sticky and...

Boy, I REALLY wanted to love this one. In fact, I nearly bought a bottle of it unsniffed so taken was I by the add copy and the glorious reviews. That's why God invented sampling programs. Gardenia...

One of the best vanillas I've tried. Not overly sweet and twinkified, but not too bogged down by other supporting notes like other high-end vanillas. It's nice and simple--perhaps too simple to...

I really love this fragrance! Usually, a fragrance smells delicious, and then dries down to something else entirely. With Muguet Blanc, it stays true to the lily of the valley scent from the first...

This review must be taken with a grain of skepticism; I am not among the iris aesthetes. I wish I were. I wish I had the nose to smell all the palely loitering iris fragrances out there and...

This is pretty but forgettable. From the name and (very beautiful) bottle I was expecting a heavy oriental but its sweet, fruity and floral. Two of the top notes are raspberry and blackcurrant and...
