Ballroom

Ballroom is what I thought it would be...a light, dreamy gathering in an airy southern estate. I imagine something like Gone with the Wind but replace the heavy velvet feel with shimmering tulle. Then replace the opaque burgundy with sheer nude satins. Blooming fragrant trees surround the guests while fireflies shimmer in the darkening pink summer sky. If you like the smell of lucious daffodils this should be on your want list. It has earned it's place on my favorites.

This was a surprising symphony of notes. It began with a light mix of florals and grew into a delightful garden of honeysuckle, daffodils and magnolia. I detected no musk, no powder and barely any rose or violet. I applied it just to one inner elbow and wrist at 6pm. Now, 15 hours later, it’s still wafting like a springtime cotillion, like mood setting music. This gem makes me want to dance the day away. Thank you BeSoliflore for a well played scent!

Fresh flowers. A light fresh scent that smells great for summer. Would also wear year round.

I felt this was a bit reminiscent of OH! de Moschino, after all, it DID make me think of it, momentarily. I don't really smell most of the notes in this perfume...which it isn't unusual for me not to. I'm not good at detecting individual notes. I can only smell two notes for sure. A Narciso Rodriguez for Her note, and a SJP Lovely note! I'm not going to even try all three at once and hunt for minor differences, there's just no use for me to. I can grab any one of the three and be content. It might not be such a compliment for Narciso Rodriguez since it's so expensive, but it's hats off for Lovely and Ballroom! Oh that's right, all the names I've been mentioning and I'm just getting to Ballroom! Ballroom to me is musk, HUGE musk, quite strong! I let everyone at work smell and all agreed (not with me) "it's , it's, hmmm...very light". No one mentioned a floral. So under "blind test" conditions, this is "light" with a good interest! Ballroom lasts all day which makes it great for work. It's unisex, but not unisex enough for a man it seems, and I don't know why. This is one perfume that's well worth the purchase price! I can only say that you might wanna like musk! I never caught that violet nuance that had me intrigued. I never got the flowers I expected and STILL, I'm quite tickled with this perfume. Thank you!

Another lucky winner here! My experience is somewhat different than the other reviewers as I get almost exclusively rose and musk. I do sense a bit of freesia as well, but for me it's all about a fresh, tart rose that is blended with a musk that is vaguely reminiscent of the Narciso Rodriguez musk. This perfume has a clean, airiness to it that stays tart rather than sweet. It reminds me of another perfume that I haven't quite placed...yet.... I was hoping for more of a white floral bouquet, so it's only a like, not a love, so far. Admittedly my initial wearings of this have been in relatively cold weather, so I'm interested to see if I pick up more florals once the weather warms.
