    It's nice, but the first thing that came to my mind was: Tilleul D'Orsay! And it has been Tilleul-like to my nose all the time it lived on my skin. Very nice and realistic, but I do not want to pay...

    En Passant or in passing by my french lilac bush,I inhaled the fresh fragrant blooms,the green wet stems and the marine and cucumber notes I detected which I don't really care for,but all in all...

    Smells like real, freshly cut flowers, which is supposed to be a good thing, but maybe this one smells TOO real and not pretty enough. If perfume could be likened to poetry, then this would be a...

    In my revolving line-up of warm weather fragrances, En Passant never ceases to amaze me. As a lilac freak, I was originally hoping it would be a kick-butt sweet lilac scent. Frankly, at the...

    Whenever I reach for En Passant I almost expect to simultaneously here a stewardess informing me that we are about to land and to fasten my seatbelt. It inevitably transports me to my Aunt Toddy's...

    I was so sure I'd like this one.....Lilacs with dew. That's what I expected.<br> Fade out.... then fade in to the reality of it : a doughy note that in collaboration with the cucumber manage to...

    Stunning. A lilac soliflore that manages to avoid smelling like a Victorian wake (who wants to have Strindberg breathing down their neck? blech...) by tempering the headiness of lilacs with...

    Eau de concombre. This reminds me of Boots Cucumber Facial Toner that used to be on sale in the mid 70's and cost about 25p for 2 litres. I have no clue if they still make it, but if they do, this...

    A slightly sweet lilac scent that's delicate and subdued. There's something very melancholy about this scent, I can't quite put my finger on it. It doesn't scream 'spring' the way lilac scents...

    I am really surprised by Malle, they are different & have many stages. The first while still wet on skin it is strong only for a second & then fades to a very Lilac ,hints of rose scent on me....

    En Passant is great when you want to smell fresh and feminine. It reminds me of something delicate and wispy, like Venetian lace curtains stirring in a barely detectable breeze. The underpinning...

    This is the most realistic lilac scent I've tried. I haven't tried very many, I'll admit--Sha turned me off lilac for awhile (I now like and own sha, though!). This is green, light, cool &...

    Ugh, stemmy to the max! I think I simply don't like green heady stemmy scents and this one is that. I find lilacs grown wild to be much sweeter and less stemmy than this scent. This fragrance...

    amazingly ugly bottle containing an amazingly mediocre fragrance, this. far too simplistic for my taste, as i prefer heady, sexy scents for night, and light, but memorable florals (with perhaps...

    It just goes to show you can have too much of a good thing - because this was just too lilacy for me! I love lilac in my garden, but this fragrance was too linear for my taste. I did not smell...

    A deceptively simple floral, remarkably fresh and spicy lilac, so real and yet not as heavy and sweet as the actual flowers can be. There is a watery component here, perhaps from the cucumber note,...

    To me, En Passant is the quintessential spring scent. I have lilac bushes in my back yard, both purple and white, and I have loved the scent my whole life. Lilacs have a sentimental connection for...

    *Beautiful* A lilac with distinct notes of watery cucumber, but with a subtle luscious, golden, honeyed base that makes it sensual and gorgeous. Me, the supreme floral-hater is seriously...
