    I am unbelievably underwhelmed! This smells basically like Play-doh through and through. A mono-note of Play-doh, which on a good day could maybe be interpreted as some kind of synthetic almond...

    Jour de Fete (new version) is a pleasant blend of vanilla and almond, delicate and sweet. Very nice quality and easy to wear. Nothing wrong with it except I know we can expect much more from...

    It's just too hard to tell with this fragrance. Usually, I spritz it on and immediately smell nothing. It vanishes with only a pitiful little whisper. Then, on certain magical days, not only does...

    This fragrance is pretty--for the five minutes I can smell it. Honestly, tho, I can still smell a trace if I put my nose right up against my arm. However, like a little sillage.

    Weightless, subtle almond/heliotrope scent with iris. Reminds me of Caron Farnesiana, but with less personality. Disappears almost immediately on my skin. I prefer Malle's L'Eau D'Hiver, which is...

    I have tried many almond scents, and though I have liked a few, only one or two have been full bottle worthy for me. Jour de Fete is one. This is a wonderful almond scent, nothing baby-powderish...

    On me this is just baby powder. Nothing else. Disappointing. Expected much more after reading the reviews here. Good I ordered the sample only. Still adore Mure et Musc.

    Linden seems to be one of L'Artisan's ever-present notes: I find it subtle and light in La Chasse aux Papillons, excessively overwhelming in L'été en douce (one of my saddest experiences with...

    Wonderful fragrance, and the one that launched me into the niche fragrance market. Bitter, realistic almond with a green touch segueing into creamy, nutty vanilla. Sweet but not overly so,...

    I have been trying some heliotropes lately (Ava-Luxe's, Bourbon French's, Etro's and Lady Evangeline), and this reminds me a lot of Ava Luxe's, it has a similar wheat-nutty quality (while the nutty...

    This is nummy - like a vanilla version of Bois Farine!! On first spray, it smells EXACTLY like Jordan almonds - fresh dry almonds with light vanilla coating. Seriously, just like an almond, NOT...

    Delicious, foody, gorgeous, cozy... it is all these things. Reminds me a lot of Lann Ael, but more elegantly done, less like breakfast and more like vanilla-scented silk or cashmere. Still, a...

    This scent just doesn't seem to mesh with my chemistry - the almond is overly strong in the top, like straight almond extract. The vanilla comes across as a powdered sweet vanilla - not warm and...

    I really wanted to like this, and the description sounds great, but I have to agree with Amykelly's review and her comment about the flea powder. When I was a kid my aunt had an Irish Setter that...

    Jour de Fete really does smell like Jordan almonds and wheat. It's a wonderful combination, even if it doesn't last long at all. There's only one little problem - it smells IDENTICAL to the flea...

    I like it but it it's a little too doughy, a little smoke or wood would make it a keeper for me, since the almond & vanilla are real nice in this one.
