This begins as a cold, polluted fog on me but after 20 minutes or so, sunlight blasts through in the form of peach and sweet woods. I'm sure there's more going on backstage but I can't articulate...

Widely regarded as the greatest perfume, ever, by the pundits, and worn by such notorieties as Charlie Chaplin and Ingrid Bergman, Mitsouko was born when Jacques Guerlain brightened the twilit...

When I first began frequenting the MUA Fragrance Board in 2006, this perfume was talked about in such reverential tones, as if the perfume itself was a koan...or possibly even a litmus test of...

I never used to get the idea of a 'signature scent' until I wore Mitsouko. I loved Poison, Opium, sometimes Tabu, Ca Scent Beau or L'eau par Kenzo. I still love these scents and each has its place,...

this is the only perfume I've ever re-bought when my first bottle ran out. It's the most incredibly long lasting scent I've ever worn, and the base notes that stick around are delicious and spicy...

Count me in as one of those who doesn't get Mitsouko. I know it's supposed to be a classic, but on me it smells like bread. That's all. Bread. I don't get any other notes at all. Plus it...

I was absolutely intrigued by the reviews, and by the fact that this is a historical Guerlain, so naturally I had to try this. I really wish this worked for me, but after multiple wears from a...

For years I've been reading that Mitsouko is one of the world's greatest fragrances - and I would spritz on some EDT at a fragrance counter and tell myself, 'I just don't get it'. Today, I sampled...

Oh, God. No. No, no, no! Tabu - yes. Shalimar - yes. Coco Chanel - yes. Giorgio Beverly Hills - yes. Mitsouko - NOOOO. The absolute REAK of this perfume surprised me. It smells of something I can't...

This warm, rich, star-studded velvet cloak of a scent, which always seemed so majestically steeped in mystery and tradition, has rightfully established the reputation of Mitsouko as the legend it...

The only notes I can identify in this perfume are peach wine, damp moss, and gentle spice. All the others seem vague. But they blend so beautifully. This stops traffic. I first became interested...

I wanted to love this I really did but it's got some base note that reminds me of Joop for men - that smells of sweet sickly tobacco- it made me physically nauscous and gave me a sickly headache....

I read about for years. I love chypre. So, I had to try it. The bottle was nice. I put a tiny bit on my arm. It was nothing remarkable at first. I waited for the beauty to reveal itself. After a...

Chypre of Chypres! Mitsouko is a true masterpiece! Unfortunately my husband associates this one with some of his older, matronly aunts,. so I don't wear it regularly. I can't help but admire it...
