    Ok....on paper, this one smells divine---I blind bought it (it was inexpensive, and for vintage Caron who can argue?). On my skin we had about an hour of HOLY SOAP, BATMAN! Like very heavily...

    I am wearing this today for 999 millionth time, and thus felt like it should be reviewed. This was the first perfume I bought for myself, around my 18th birthday, in Galeries Lafayette (a big...

    My review is for the 2013 reformulation that comes in a very modern bottle. This is the demure, elegant sister of opulent, cheerful and oriental Poison especially in the beginning. Despite the...

    Nocturnes is a charming aldehydic floral with unusual nutty/sherry notes. The aldehydes are soapy and fresh but not particularly dry or sharp, lending a roundness to the composition and making it...

    You know that guy that should be perfect for you on paper, but you can't really stand to date in the real world? Yeah. Nocturnes is that for me. It's green, it's got sillage and tenacity, it's easy...

    If you are fond of aldehydes, this is definitely one that you have to try. Nocturnes starts out bright and citrusy over a soap floral, the aldehydes lend an airiness that tickles your nose. It...

    I have a large bottle of the vintage splash-on EDT from the '80s, and it is still fresh and perfect. The Art Deco bottle design with its ground-glass stopper is beautiful, And I used to think the...

    This is a review for the new formula: please ignore the first 30 minutes of Nocturnes. It is sharp and bitter. After 30 minutes, it turns into a sweet blend of floral boutique, moderately powdery....

    Nocturnes is a beautiful floral. To me it is too light and subtle to be an evening perfume so I think it is slightly mis-named. But for a beautiful, sophisticated perfume for day I don;t think it...

    I bought this unsniffed based on the reviews I read here. Nocturnes is a smooth, serene scent. Other reviewers have listed the notes in more detail. I primarily smell roses and (in a good...

    Caron's answer to Guerlain's Chant d'Aromes. A tad lighter and initially has a rosier feeling to it. Simply beautiful!

    it's a lovely and subtle perfume with long staying power, as others have mentioned before I think the name Nocturnes might be misleading because it's not a dark scent, I would describe the feeling...

    This is a pleasant floral with depth. It makes a good night-time fragrance, especially when dressing up. And I feel that it's not the kind of fragrance that you're going to smell on lots of other...

    This was a coveted favorite of mine in the '80s-- I remember the EDT being a pleasant departure from the heavy-hitter scents of the day (Giorgio, Obsession, Poison, Opium). Nocturnes is a soft,...

    My beloved friend from the eighties, when we were young and still cared, wore this fragrance. It was lovely and soft with a really different note to it. I loved it on her. I ordered a mini on ebay,...

    I think this in the edt formulation is just mediocre. It is too aldehyldic for my tastes and quite powdery. I use it for bathroom freshener now and I must say it smells divine after several...

    Very special, flowery-aldehydic, subtle, intersting. In spite of its name "Nocturne", I think it is perfect for daytime use. Came out in the eighties, but has no touch of loudness or vulgarity...

    I bought this unsniffed for next-to-nothing at an online discount etailer. I love the Caron line, the notes sounded interesting, so I thought I'd take a chance. Like most Caron's, it has a...
