B

Another lovely boucheron This is a classic,and I prefer to own a mini of classics that their notes don't catch my eyes,because I want to have them in my collection,with the least cost possible When I saw woody as it's olfactory group,I knew I'm not gonna like it,but since it's a boucheron and a classic,then it's a mini blindbuy worthy in my book..I'm not into woodsy fragrances,I love sandalwood and cashmere but I hate cedar and patchouli,so there was not high hopes for loving B de boucheron in my naive heart..this happened to be love at first sniff! B de boucheron is gorgeous,it's smooth,rich,creamy,gentle and romantic in a classic way.it opens with sweet,juicy apricot and osmanthus,thanks god there is no cedar and not much patchouli,there is just a thick,very creamy sandalwood,this juice is so well blended that I can't pick other florals(there is something like ylang ylang here!),but they are there,blending with osamanthus,apricot and spices..for me,this is an oriental floral..warm,rich,feminine,sweet,beautiful..it's almost linear xand not really unique but all the boucheron fragrances are more interesting and complex than what they look,they are all beautiful but simple at first sniff but you should give them time and live with them for a while,then they start to grow on you and show you their amazing layers,so although I love B de boucheron by now,I know that I'm gonna even love it more Here's the problem,I only have a very small mini of this and this is nowhere in my town,even unavailable in local sites,I'm really nervous to finish my golden juice :( ❤❤❤❤❤

This scent is so lovely and romantic. I picture a pretty young girl in a white dress quietly sitting in a garden filled with osmanthus bushes in full bloom. The wind gently caresses the blossoms, the sun is warm. The girl closes her eyes and let the world drift away as she is daydreaming about far away places. The scent is really beautiful, tender and soft. I am able to enjoy its soft and dreamy notes without feeling overpowered. The scent is not loud but it is definitely not boring or generic to me. I love the apricot and osmanthus notes in the opening. The composition is fresh, slightly sweet and tender. The scent is very graceful and delightful to wear. The apricot note is very well done and the scent definitely does not smell like a fruit cake. Slowly the fragrance transfers into a gentle floral heart of roses. The rose note is also very light and fresh. The osmanthus note wraps around the rose bouquet like a soft floral mist. I also smell tiny bit of patchouli. It is not that noticeable here but it adds a nice touch to the floral bouquet. There is a lovely, creamy and soft woods feel to the base that I just love. The sillage is close to the skin but very pleasant. The longevity is medium. Overall score is 8.5/10. I definitely recommend this scent if you are looking for a gentle, high-quality floral. I get lots of compliments whenever I wear it.

This scent is a real treasure in the oriental perfume family. It is made with mainly natural ingredients which is why it is quite high priced. In contrary to so many other orientals that are too overwhelming or heavy to wear them on a daily basis, 'B' Boucheron stays close to the skin and you can sniff the changes from the top note to heart note and base note while you are wearing it. This perfume is a positive exception from all the linear and boring scents that are released nowadays. Highly recommended!

Bought it today at Marshall's for $20 bucks and I think it's a great deal! I liked that perfume from the moment it was released and was sad to realize it wasn't sold anymore. It's very warm, slighly sweet (very discreet, classy, unlike any Victoria Secret-type of terrible sweetness), and...safe. As previous comments noted, nothing too original, but maybe that was not the purpose of this perfume. I think it will work great as a gift - the bottle is beautiful, the scent is very pleasant and "expensive".

Another masterpiece from Boucheron. Ladylike, classy, enchanting scent full of certain grandeur, long lasting without being overpowering or cloying. Gorgeously combined cedar, apricot and sandalwood with stunning osmanthus on top of this glorious trio. Was happily using this scent until it was sadly discontinued. It had the same nonchalant vibe of Dolce Vita or Yvresse. And what an absolutely stunning bottle! Oh, well, alas... Goodbye my B, goodbye...

Nope, doesn't work with my skin. I was curious because of the osmanthus and apricot, which I like. Here though, the patchouli and cedar overwhelm to the point it smells masculine on me. Patchouli works with me only in small doses, this is way to much for my skin to translate into anything feminine. Actually, depending on skin chemistry, this might be a killer scent for a young man!

Cold weather redux. Works beautifully in colder weather. Tried it today. The woods and the osmanthus-apricot-rose melange really mesh wonderfully in the cold. Much more feminine. Patchouli is less prominent on me in the cold. The strength of the woods is very evident through the cold. Now it works. Now it's beautiful. Love it even more than the regular Boucheron in the cold.

I am in love with this perfume. Not in lust, or in infatuation. In REAL LOVE. I want to hold and nurture it. I want to serve it. Not like a slave, but like a knight taking pride in pleasing his queen. I only want to wear it to bed, I'm afraid of violating it by exposure to outsiders.. It's THAT kind of scent. Completely beautiful.

Blind bought this and was happily surprised by its similarity to one of my all time favorite perfumes- Dolce Vita. The bottle is stunning too. If you’re a fan of the more opulent 1990’s-2000’s woody, spicy, golden colored scents then this is worth it’s still relatively cheap price.

It's fruty and warm spicy perfume! Sexy and deep, but not sweet! Perfect for a real woman! Powdery and woody! You smell apricot at the whole day and it is like an oriental magic! I am fallen in love!!! ♥ it's my signature fragrance!!

This fragnance is one of my favorites. The design of the bottle is very elegance, also the fragnance itself. I really adore the smell, however, it's not a long lasting fragnance (on my skin). So pity...

This is very classy to me, very elegant, perfect for some kind of important evening in the middle of the Winter, when you have a lot of snow outside and you wear simple, black dress.

I really love this fragrance. It's a warm floral on me (I don't pick up on any fruit notes). It lasts a good while on me too - love it.

I love the Woody notes here, they're so feminine. Gorgeous scent.

When I purchased a bottle of B I was on the hunt for a prominent apricot note and osmanthus. These notes ended up not being the as easy to as identify as I wanted it to be but it is still a really pretty perfume. It is slightly spicy blended with a fruitier vibe that is reminiscent of apricot jam. There is a floral and woody undertone to this fragrance, but the wood doesn’t distinctly smell like cedar to my nose. I do pick up on a tiny bit of sandalwood. This fragrance is pretty well blended, because it is actually pretty hard to identify what is actually going on here. B is one of those fragrances that does smell good and is easy to enjoy, which I personally do not mind. I'm not the best at identify notes but I am a little surprised with how much I am struggling to figure out what notes are the strongest in it, so I give up I might figure it out over some more time. However, for now I will just enjoy this lovely fragrance that I keep getting delightful whiffs of when I move around.

B should be recategorized - it is definitely a fruity floral to my nose! Incredibly creamy and sweet pitted fruits, jammy and soft. Peach fuzz rubbing against the skin like a purr. Luxurious and well-blended, the layers of fruit peel away into a thick floral heart. The woods and spices are quite subdued, and the overall impression is just that of Soft flowers. The basenotes lie close to the skin in a sweet ambery-musky blanket. B is definitely not a statement perfume, and the golden advertising is a little misleading. It's a sweet skin scent, a little coy and sex-kitten-ish, but not terribly unique. Even so, you can't deny that it is well done.

Beautiful bottle, disappointing smell. I blind bought this and I regret it but fortunately it wasn't expensive. All I can smell is cedar mixed with some patchouli and some generic citrus at the back. Some solar notes in there as well, maybe from the osmanthus. As good as this may sound, the composition is seriously underwhelming and shallow. The smell is very faint and doesn't hold for long. Projection is a few cm and there's no sillage to talk about. I advise against buying it, especially blind.

I don't want to jump to conclusions, I only wore it once around the house. But as a huge fan of Boucheron, I was axpecting B to be just as big and glamorous.....but all my excitement deflated within an hour of weasring it. All i got instead was "nice" and "pretty"....average sillage, average longevity, and very average scent. I will give it a chance tomorrow again....but judging by my first impression, this 100 ml bottle will take me forever and a day to finish.

Yesterday, I found this perfume. My sister have been wearing Hermes Kelly Caleche, and now the perfume is running out and she is looking for the replacement. I sprayed it on paper...and gosh, this smell is very distinguish! Like perfume for divas, very cassy and glamour! Surely I would like to buy it for her, even though I am not sure whether she is "diva" enough for this perfume :)

Everything about this is so light, pleasant and feminine. Compared to my in-your-face orientals, it's barely there. But I like it very much, and would even call it beautiful. If it were stronger I think it would work for me in cold weather, but because it's so light and powdery and filled with dreams floating on air, I think it will work better for me in warm weather.
