Miss Boucheron

I love this! How is this stuff so cheap? Looks like you can get a big 100ml bottle for 20 euro (23 dollars). Total steal. Fiance also likes it a lot. He thought it would be great for a spring party. He guessed this would be worn by someone in their late 20's or early 30's, so the age range listed above (25-35) is bang on. The only question is why the marketing department of Givenchy would choose a pink "toy" bottle for a perfume for 30-year-olds if that was the target. I mean. The average 30-year-old woman is already a MRS anyhow, why name the scent 'MISS' and put it in a cheapish plastic looking pink bottle with an Alice in Wonderland theme? I had a bottle like that when I was 12 and it was a kiddie perfume from a theme park. I wouldn't be surprised if the target audience for 'Miss Boucheron' was never reached because the bottle screams 'drugstore fruitiness for young teens'. The scent itself smells beige or champagne; you'd expect a classy bottle with white and gold accents or a light salmon bottle with flowers. Something like Estee Lauder Pleasures or Beautiful Belle, Laura Ashley No1, Lancome Idole, Armani Si, it's a scent in that vein of uplifting florals for daytime wear. It's very pretty and fresh in a fresh-from-the-shower sort of way. Like the smell of your hair after you've used a nice shampoo. It might be a bit generic, but you can wear this anywhere because people always appreciate this sort of happy & clean scent. I'd say it's a warmer scent with a rich base. The musk, lemon and pink pepper add some electricity and zing to the scent making it interesting. The end result is a fruity-floral for grown-ups that's not too sweet and a little soapy. Just beautiful and happy and free. Can't go wrong with this one. Addictive too, I keep smelling my wrist. Fiance: 8/10 Me: 8.5/10

You should note two things before reading my review. 1.) I am a complete doofus when it comes to perfume. I like what I like, and aside from having a scent memory of the 1970s and 1980s fragrances of my youth, I have no preconceived ideas of what something "should" smell like - I like it or not, and there are plenty that I dislike. 2) Look at the perfumers who developed this: Anne Flipo and Dominique Ropion. Read their resumes - there is some real expertise here. Sometimes people think that they need to spend a fortune on a fragrance in order for it to be something they like. I get it - the expensive ones have that appeal. I feel that Miss Boucheron is getting so-so reviews because it is a less expensive fragrance. I am here to defend Miss Boucheron! It is a lovely scent with a note I can't quite distinguish -- maybe the cyclamen? Cyclamen, by the way, is a gorgeous, unusual flower, and not easy to grow. Miss Boucheron is well-blended and long-lasting. Last night I wore it to bed and woke up to its lovely dry-down, a sweet softness - just delightful. I have more fun wearing perfume to bed than during the day -- that way I am wearing it for myself and not worried about what my co-workers will think. The "miss" in Miss Boucheron is spot-on. It is a youthful, fresh, carefree scent.

I've found a great deal on a website so I decided to buy this one blindly, mainly because of positive reviews here. (Can't believe I did it again!) The first spray on my wrist gave me suede, darn straight suede mixed with pomegranate scent. Suede scent was very permanent, presented itself every stages the perfume developed. I was shocked at the time. It can't be since I like most of the notes listed and the convincing reviews mentioning how pretty it is. One morning I woke up and though "Well, I've paid for it, why not try to get along?". I decided to spray it on my body, 2 good squirts. That decision completely turned me around. On my body it smelled so nice I can't stop sniffing myself. THAT scary suede was still there, but subtle and gave the expensive edge to the compositions. The reviews are right after all. On me it's a sweet combo of pomegranate and flowers. Framed with subtle suede and cedar. Inoffensive, feminine, office scent. Lovely! Staying power is great enough, 6 h minimum on me with 3 squirts. I've learned even on my wrist, the perfumes may turn out differently from actually spraying it on my body. How complicated!

I have to admit I love Miss Boucheron. I have the original Boucheron which I wear on special occasions only but Miss Boucheron is one of my favorite casual perfumes. I love how the fruity notes are combined with the fresh floral notes and a touch of suede. The scent is modern, pretty and young but also chic. The composition is not complex or dramatic but it is graceful, light and sparkly. I get lots of compliments when I wear it. The pomegranate note is playful and lovely in the opening mixed with a nice doze of pink pepper. I love roses and I can definitely smell them in the heart notes but I think the lead floral note here is the cyclamen. I think it is the cyclamen that makes the heart notes to smell so fresh and gentle. The suede note is very feminine and soft here. It mixes lovely with the freshness of cyclamen. The dry down is similar to the heart notes but toned down a bit. The scent becomes lighter in the dry down but it lasts for at least 8 hours. Overall score is 8/10. Miss Boucheron is a lovely, sassy and casual fruity floral that I definitely recommend trying.

I received a sample of this and at first I like it,but after I wore it one day to test it I fell in love with it. It smell of Paris in a spring day, I feel as I am a beautiful confident wealthy bourgeise in an elegant attire who enjoy a trip around France. It smell of luxury hotels,Concorde,French Riviera..Jet Set. I could see young Catherine Deneuve or B.B. in YSL or Chanel attire. It start with Pink Pepper Cyclamin Suede and soft woody rose,then the suede,musk and woody notes gain much rich deep feeling along pink pepper violet and cyclamin. To me it is noticeable also leather. It' a woody-flowery-leather perfume. Nothing cheap or overcrowded. It's so traditional to me,more suitable to 30 years women and up. Someone wrote that smell plastic and synthetic but I totally disagree... to me it's a pure beauty to wear dreaming about a priviledge life in the French Riviera and Paris going from a boutique to a museum and then a trip to Capri.

I found this perfume at the airport. Coming back from vacations, I was looking for something new and inspiring for the next working year. I looked at the bottle and immediately thought about my grandma. Fortunately, I did not discard it then but had a sniff. A surprisingly pleasant sniff! I do not buy perfumes without first testing it several times. This one was a risky choice, but what a choice it turned out to be! Miss Boucheron is beautiful. Round and beautiful. Delicate and subtle but strong enough to last for hours (I spray it in the morning and I can still smell it on my pillow when I wake up the next day.)It is not too sweet, not too strong, not too fresh. When I wear it I feel not only beautiful and sophisticated but also approachable and joyful. It gives me a great start for the day and a motivation to dress up, have great make up, high heels and a smile. What else would I want from a work perfume?

I have just reordered a second bottle of this fragrance in a few years. The other bottle is almost finished so when I went looking for it again I found another bottle which is a fraction of what it used to retail at. For me this perfume is a soft peppery floral and then it dries into a nice musk. It’s not fancy but it smells nice and I appreciated it when I first got it. Some may say it’s cheap and a bit tacky but I don’t have any of that against my skin and it’s quite pleasant to wear during the day around the spring and summer months. It lasts well and I knew when I saw it on sale I thought I would purchase another bottle for myself. I have yet to try the other perfumes but originally purchased this for it’s pink pepper element hoping it might have been a bit like Chanel Chance. This is different than that but still totally enjoyable...well for me anyway!

I'm SO happy because I've finally gotten a hold of a bottle of Miss Boucheron for myself in a swap on here with miZZpuRRfect. It had become one of my favorites after testing it in department stores a few times over the past few months. This is such a nice perfume. It's quite light, fresh, fruity, a little flowery, sophisticated and very appealing. Despite its name, I think Miss Boucheron is a great perfume for any age group, young or not, and for any occasion. Personally I think it's a perfume you could never go wrong with and one which I doubt anyone could find overwhelming or offensive in any way! I love it.

I cant imagine anyone not loving this lil lady!She is called a floral but she is much more complex than that!FRuity lovers should adore this as it has a sweet strawberry,bergomot beginning that is spiced with pink pepper.Pink pepper is sometimes used in desserts.IT mellows into a violet rose center that is alluring even to the wearer.THe dry down is no less beautiful.THE soft leather mist coupled with cedar and musk,is another mellow sweet ending.Lies close to ur skin.Doesnt scream,HERE I COME,it doesnt have to for u will b content knowing ur scent is sweet,romantic and shyly sexy/

I am a big Boucheron fan. I actually bought this a few years ago and I was doing some spring cleaning and came across it yesterday. I was not impressed when I bought it, but I must have matured in that time because I was completely wrong about this scent. This is a great scent. Definetly for spring or summer. The notes are mature and I think that it is possible the color of the bottle gives the impression of something less than. Upon revaluation, this is worthy of house of Boucheron. The talent is evident in the juice. Just don't look at the bottle. A great subtle woody scent!

This Fragrance smells lovely, sophisticated, I cannot stop smelling it, and this is a fragrance that lasts. I must say I am not very into floral scents, but this smells irresistible. I smell florals and some spicy/leathery smell. I love this!

Refreshing, feminine, soft sexy , interesting fun relaxing vibes ... The dry down reminds of Narciso Rodriguez For Her edt ( musky floral ) . To me this perfume is complex in a soft way .... I enjoyed this perfume alot though ...

I love this perfume. This and Jaipur bracelet are two of my favorites in spring. This one is the perfect balance between of sweet and woody. Soft and so elegantly underrated, but with so much personality and presence.

I love boucheron very much Very pretty perfume Very comfortable fresh smell I have it now

One of the cleanest nicest and most underrated scents!

Berries and pink pepper. I love this.

I'm not a fan of woody fragrances,not at all,I also usually don't like female fragrances with dominant leather or suede,I prefer simple floral fruity perfumes for everyday use during spring and summer,but most of them are too much simple and plain,generic and too much girly pink Miss boucheron is a woody fragrance with a pink,floral fruity vibe!if you just smell it over the bottle or test it without paying much attention you will find nothing out standing in it,but give it some time and you will meet a real woody scent which is really differant to other perfumes in this group,it's not uni and masculine like others,it opens with juicy spiced fruity note(pomegranate+pink pepper)with some powdered floral notes that give a bright and cheerful vibe to the woody undertone(I can barely detect rose here,it's not dominant to my nose)there is also musk which adds to feminity and cleanness of the scent,but these feminine bright floral fruity musky notes are not enough to make it soft,girly and pink like other pink perfumes out there Suede is there,giving miss boucheron a serious,mature vibe,preventing it to become light,joyful,sweet and generic,I believe the syntethic note or leathery smell some people get from miss boucheron is about suede,but I believe this is exactly what make it special..change of the notes are very clear here,juicy spiced pomegranat and bergamot turns to a soft powdery floral scent and at last it dries down to a musky suede-violet combo,it's dry down is very woody,soft leathery and very powdery,it reminds me wet woods and violets If you are looking for a soft,sweet fruity rosey scent or velvety woodsy one like she wood this may dissapoint you,it's a mixture of these two,it has it's own category,really simple at firstsillage but with a comlex heart,it is young and mature the same time,serious and also easygoing Very good longevity Moderate sillage Can be used all around the year except winters The only down side is it's bottle,it looks like an ugly kid's toy,it would be better if that ugly green plastic was not on the top part Edit: Oh well,while I appreciate it's originality and being very different with mainstream perfumes,having intresting development,as well as affordable price; unfortunately I have to say it's not for me No problem in it's opening and middle notes but it's drydown is all about suede,cedar and violet on me without slightest hint of sweetness and is definately unisex Good that I have a 50mil of it,however it will last forever I may give it to my sister in law who loves sweetless,clean and unisex powdery woody scents 2nd edit: I decided to give it another chance.it's a sunny but also cool and breezy spring day Opens juicy a tad fizzy with pink pepper and pomegranate just as I remembered Then florals kick in.pretty,a tad powdery,a tad sweet,soft florals.I remember it was all about violet and iris but now I can pickup a light and sweet berryish rose and cyclamen too.beautiful pink flowers After half an hour I can see suede and musk but honestly it's heavenly.not masculine woodyness or too much violet anymore.I can still smell soft powdery florals with a hint of fruity undertone(pomegranat or raspberry?)mingling with clean musk and warm,soft suede Well it's a lovely surprise! It has a pretty,girly,youthful side and a more mature and ladylike side.recently I'm growing to love musky scents speacially musky,leathery scents with soapy florals and it's very close to what I'm looking for.don't get me wrong.florals aren't soapy here,their soft powdery and their fruity naunces give them a youthful vibe.also I can't call this a leathery scent.it has just a hint of soft,skin like suede but all in all it feels clean and fresh as well as cozy and comfortable.easy to wear and simple as well as classy Going to wear it more for sure BTW,I think it's aptly named.miss boucheron is a good name for it.it's young and classy

Review for Oriental lovers: I bought this as a blind buy. It was heavily discounted, and I felt like shaking it up a bit. Based on my profile, you can see, I'm a broadly oriental FIEND! vanilla, spicy, musk, depending on the notes, I love 'em all. This is probably the most floral in my active collection. However, that is why I like it. When you are going grocery shopping, or to meet the in-laws, you don't necessarily want to smell like "the whore of Babylon". (hehe) For me, this is a great lasting (but not LONG lasting ie. Flowerbomb or Alien) floral scent with a more demur quality while still adhering to my skin's (The bergamot maybe?)oriental loyalties. It has the classy tone of a traditional Parisian house with more versatility than those with hefty price tags. Bottom line: Is this perfume exceptional out of this world "OMG!!!"? No. Is it worth considering for those whose skin seems bonded to oriental night-scents? yes. Miss Boucheron is a nice addition to my collection, though not indispensable. I wouldn't splurge on it, but, for those of the oriental persuasion, Miss Boucheron is a great floral non-fruit daytime that makes you smell gentle and classy. My top collector tip: A light-tight flexible *basket with lid* for storage. Sunlight can damage or shorten the life of your perfume. Bottles should be snuggled together to restrict movement (upright if possible) to help prevent scratching & breaking. Care for your perfume & a 100ml can last decades!

Just going to start by saying...I really like this. It's fresh, it's fruity, it's a little bit tart and has a DEFINITE pink pepper vibe going. The suede is beautiful and a really nice touch. I'm not a huge leather fan so I was a bit concerned but this is not hard core black leather but a beautiful soft suede. This was bound to be a hit for me as it has my three favorite notes...iris, rose and violet!!! I enjoy this scent from beginning to end and it lasts and lasts on my skin!!! Yes it's pink...Yes it's been done before...Yes Yes Yes!!! No this is not Joy, My Sin, 24 Faubourg or No. 5 but this was never meant to be. This is fun and light and has a wonderful sense of humor. This is for all the lovely ladies out there who want a fun, easy fragrance and don't take themselves too seriously. What else would you expect from a pink bottle??? Btw...I don't get into what age group this is appropriate or not appropriate for. Scents are not age specific. A beautiful 16 year old girl could easily pull off a No. 5 with the right attitude while a 40 year old might feel smothered by it. Just like a 40 year old can easily wear a bright fruity floral while a younger girl may not enjoy that type of scent. As men and women that is the beauty about picking and wearing a particular scent. We get to choose to wear what we love...what we identify with and what makes us happy. And as women...we always reserve the right to change our minds.

I enjoy this for its ability to harmonize crisp, upbeat extroversion with dreamy romanticism. Sometimes I feel right in the middle of those two moods. Violet is not hugely forward here for me, nor is the rose or the pink pepper; they blend well with the dominant pomegranate. I do get the suede right away, as a slightly dirty smudge along with the bright sweetness. Bergamot is pretty in the opening, and there's something delicately sweet, could be the cyclamen? (Not familiar with the actual smell of that plant.) I'm surprised 'woody' is the dominant accord on the pyramid here. The dry-down is really nice, enveloping, complex, and powdery as from iris. Fresh, clean, and romantic. Maybe gives a slight vibe of self-absorption? Kinda like the image of youth. ;) I actually bought this twice because the first time I didn't like it and sold it.
