    I used to wear this a long time ago when I was on a Goutal journey. It smelt clean and soapy on me. I don’t recall any trace of mango. My mom sniiffed me and said I smelt like generic (cheap) hotel...

    In the bottle I smelled the lovely mango and green notes. I was excited, so I put some on. Once on my skin, the mango was completely nowhere to be found, and the green notes bordered on toxic. ...

    Mango? What mango? Sadly I'm one of those people whose skin morphs Folavril into laundry detergent (albeit a very green and fresh-smelling laundry detergent). Actually it reminds me of clean...

    I love the Annick Goutal line as a whole, but there are about 2-3 I absolutely abhor. This is one of them. It opens nicely, but unfortunately dries to the smell of my dogs when I bring them home...

    "Have you been washing your hands with the laundry detergent?" My hubby demanded, eying me suspiciously. I have mild OCD, you see. Nuff said.

    To my nose, similarities between Folavril and Eau de Charlotte end after the first sniff. While I rang EdC among my very favourites, Folavril has got some strange note in it that doesn't appeal me...

    I would like to comment on the Charlotte/Folavril issue, becasue I use and love both. I see how they could be perceived as similar but, to my (untrained) nose, Folavril is more complex, soapier and...

    I think that this is the worst AG fragrance that I have tried. It has a very peculiar scent that is almost impossible to describe-- but I word "resin-y" is probably the closest. Sharp-smelling, it...

    Hell no I won't buy it. Egads, I almost got sick when I smelled it. I was very curious to try it after reading the reviews. The tomato leaf note and mango smelled medicinal, artificial, and...

    I'm somewhat confused by Folavril, since (to my nose) it smells almost identical to Eau de Charlotte. Don't get me wrong, I like Eau de Charlotte... but I was expecting something, well, different....

    I don't find this scent particularly feminine on me. Folavril is intensely strong and citrussy, in an artificial way, and I can't smell any floral notes. It is very clean, fresh and bright, but...

    I think that Folavril was the first AG fagrance that I tried long ago... Cute name and description sounded interesting to me, like the fragrance I could like. Unfortunately it turned somehow tart...

    This fragrance is the BEST I have ever tried. Boronia Flower, mango and tomato combined come out smelling like the finest french soap. Clean and fresh but most of all natural and lovely.

    I love reading reviews of perfumes on here - for the most part, one either loves or loathes a particular scent. For me, this one is a love. I bought it in 1999, wore it for a while and started...

    A soapy mango with a hint of tomato leaf. I know - it sounds horrible, but it's not. It's beautiful, tropical, longlasting, unique! Sexy and innocent at the same time! It's not the "elevator...

    My decant had an unpleasant fruity and plastic smell.Interesting name and I of course love all of Annick Goutal's bottles.

    Smells great when it's fresh, but it turns so quickly it's hardly worth sinking $65 into a bottle. Get a sample if you can and use it up fast.

    I bought this at the counter during the Xmas season and went through the whole smelling routine with the rep. I settled on this because I liked the tomato leaf, but the fruit, which I cannot wear,...
