Voulez-Vous Coucher Avec Moi

This is my first Kilian fragrance. I didn't plan to buy it, and I'd never pay full price for it, but I couldn't pass on a very good deal. :) Now, let's review it. First of all, I have to agree with those reviewers who have observed that Voulez-Vous Coucher Avec Moi is quite similar to Guerlain L'Instant - especially the EDP concentration. An inexperienced nose would hardly be able to tell the difference, because the openings of both fragrances are so very similar; however, they develop in different directions. L'Instant is more cloying, and after the initial ylang-ylang blast, the super-powdery magnolia and iris take over, paired with the honeyed vanilla. On the other hand, Voulez-Vous Coucher Avec Moi is more transparent, with ylang-ylang positioned front and centre throughout its development. I didn't know which perfumer signed VVCAM, but now I see that it's Alberto Morillas, and it definitely bears his signature - it is floral, translucent and incredibly feminine. I know that this fragrance is marketed as unisex, but honestly, I can't imagine how this would work on a guy's skin; to me it's super-feminine. Aside from ylang-ylang, I can also smell tuberose, gardenia and vanilla; fortunately, these three do not steer VVCAM into the overwhelmingly sweet territory. Interestingly, I can't really smell rose here - perhaps it's there, but it is totally overpowered by these tropical yellow and white flowers. Although I've said that VVCAM is not so cloying as L'Instant, it is still extremely potent and tenacious. On my skin, it projects magnificently and lasts 8+ hours. Overall, this is a great investment for those who know how to rock a good ylang-ylang. I know I'll be wearing the hell out of this perfume in the upcoming months.

My first impression is that it is a gorgeous, ylang dominant, fluff white floral. I am very surprised that there is no honey or even bee's wax among the ingredients, though I was wearing Quelques Fleurs Royale earlier, which does contain honey, so perhaps Im getting the remnants of that. As many have pointed out, this does bear a resemblance to L'Instant. I have the original version, and VVCAM smells like a much more refined version. I sprayed heavily, but won't make that mistake again, because it does start to smell somewhat cloying, especially if sprayed on the neck, close to the nose. I think the scent bubble will be more appealing if sprayed on the wrists and/or behind the knees, so that it wafts around you. The smell of sandalwood is starting to sneak through, and it's very discrete. I enjoy it. The white flowers are like wise taming the ylang explosion I first experienced. What I am not getting is a particularly strong vanilla, though it does add a touch of sweetness that isn't cheap or juvenile. I do not understand how people consider this to be a scent for older ladies, though of course I myself am an older lady. I find it quite alluring if not flat out sexy. I'm also a sucker for the black case with the gold snakes. Yes, it's plastic, but I can see myself using it as an evening bag on occasion. All in all, I am really enjoying my first experience with this fragrance, and I have deemed it a Love, which is subject to change should the ending disappoint me. I have one question I hope someone can answer. When did they switch from the black bottle to the white one? Is there any difference? PM if you can clarify this for me!

Fabulous take on the nineties glam floral. Kilian fragrances are just so wearable. To me this smells like a cross between Chanel Allure and Guerlain L'Instant (with the tiniest bit of Samsara in it), all made translucent, and given some Kilian fairy dust in the form of sparkling vanilla. After it settles, it has the most magical, mysterious, womanly scent trail. The name is completely wrong of course, as is the case with many of Kilian's scent names. This is a feminine scent worn by a woman for herself. It's not something your stereotypical cookie-loving guy would go gaga over; and neither does it have any innate animalic-ness or primal thing happening that could possibly point to a tussle between the covers. I don't necessarily think fragrances are gendered, but you can imagine a classy woman wearing this to the opera, which is about as far from the name as it gets. This could be called Woman in Platinum. I can see that it could also suit a retro fashion lover, and would also make a great fragrance for one's mother (making the name even more awks). Imagine giving this to a mother in her fifties or sixties - the gorgeous presentation bottle, and the name 'Woman in Platinum'. What a lost opportunity for a market. In some ways, Kilian does the same thing I think Ormonde Jayne does, but in a different way: which is take a fragrance archetype and make it more refined, more wearable (in OJ's case, with osmanthus and tea notes; in Kilian's case, with sugar and gourmand notes). I'm on board with that. I want my fragrances to be wearable. Another win from Kilian.

Classy Sex Appeal (Alberto Morillas, 2015) Bottle Design: Carre Basset Scentrack: The Human League - Human After Moulin Rouge video one could expect a trashy sweet floral, but this perfume is something completely different. Voulez-Vous Coucher Avec Moi is a very serious offering, made by the superstar perfumer Alberto Morillas. Master Morillas is best known for his creative aquatic and citrus scent. In Voulez-Vous Coucher Avec Moi we are introduced to the darker side of Morillas. This fragrance is no joke, a subdued sexy scent. Very elegant and classy with numerous layers. It has some classical 80s vibe with a contemporary twist. Voulez-Vous Coucher Avec Moi opens with a blast of beautiful prickly neroli and sunny orange flower. This citrus duo is followed by white and fruity ylang ylang and luminous tuberose. Pink tuberose is the main star of this By Kilian. It is powerful yet fragile and feminine. I can also sense very elegant rose with fruity, jammy undertones and some jasmine-like traces. After a few hours the base becomes stronger. Almost edible vanilla with just a touch of sweet and nutty Tonka bean reminds me of Lalique Le Parfum. Sandalwood gives a milky, almost coconut-like sensation. This is very balanced and versatile fragrance, best suited for evening and nighttime use. Marketed as unisex, but in my opinion is perfectly suited for dark and mysterious ladies. It really smells great on my girlfriend, and maybe one day I will be in a position to purchase her a full bottle. Rating: 9/10

These two perfumes share a similar style. 🤍KILIAN: Voulez-Vous Coucher Avec Moi (2015) 🤍ROJA PARFUMS Danger Parfum Pour Femme (2012) CREAMY, RICH WHITE FLORALS WITH VANILLA, SANDALWOOD AND YLANG-YLANG That previous combination is truly amazing. Of the two, VVCAM is the stronger, fuller and somehow fatally seductive, as it has Tuberose, Orange Blossom, Neroli and Gardenia in it. Danger is noticeably more refined, innocent, powdery and softer with Jasmine and Gardenia. In Dander, there is that subtle, elegant, tender Roja’s style sweetness from Peach and vanilla whereas the sweetness in VVCAM comes from Tuberose, Ylang-Ylang and Vanilla, being more intense and deeper, like the aroma of white flowers themselves. Both are intoxicating in their own way. "New Look 1947 | Dior" is quite close to VVCAM as well, the biggest difference is in the opening and in overall VVCAM is more sour and creamier with stronger Ylang Ylang note while New Look 1947 stays somewhat earthier. New Look 1947 lasts longer and projects more. I will write an in depth review of all later. Thank you for reading, I hope my review was helpful. I would appreciate a lot if you want to follow me on IG and/or YouTube (English subtitles): @ninamariahperfumes It gives me a lot of motivation to write more.

This is a perfectly lovely fume. Elegant and feminine. I see that some people consider it generic, something I can understand at first, but the depth of the composition saves it from being just another white-ish floral, or (GASP) celebrity scent. What it is NOT, IMHO, is seductive and sexy. The name and the bottle do not fit with the sunny, beautiful fragrance. It quite simply is not dirty enough. Is it FBW? Perhaps. I could see it having a place in my collection at some point. I have just begun exploring By Kilian though, so we will have to wait and see if there are others I prefer. I am smelling it on my wrists as I type this - very lovely indeed! Edit - this reminds me of Sublime by Jean Patou quite a bit, though less crisp.

Vous les vous coucher avec moi? 👄 This is my signature scent. I felt a bit embarrassed saying it’s name, many people got confused ☺️ And yes, I often say it as I get asked for its name all the time. Last night a lady at a restaurant asked what I was wearing, saying it’s absolutely beautiful. A police officer complimented my scent while giving me a fine though. 🙄 And once even a court official asked for the name of my scent, I even sprayed it on his hand ❤️ I buy a refill every year and start panicking when it’s almost over. L’Instant by Guerlain is similar but not quite the same. There’s something in the Vous les vous coucher avec moi that makes it the ultimate femininity. And you’ll never have no as an answer.

A beautiful perfume - very very beautiful. Magical! Completely lovely. Very feminine and bewitching. The loveliest rose, gorgeous ylang-ylang, lovely soft flowers. Beautifully elegant, womanly and refined.....very sensual, very understated. I adore it. And it lasts for a long time - 12 hours. It's a very alluring perfume. Such lovely flowers and sandalwood and delicate cedar, with sweet vanilla threaded through everything. I truly love it. So does my husband; it's one of our favourites. And I get lots of compliments, mainly from women, but occasionally a man will say how lovely I smell. It's gorgeous. And the name is very enticing too!

Wonderful composition, classy, a bit soapy and reminds me a bit of No5. I really enjoy this fragrance, and I have a great time with a sample, but my issue with all Kilian fragrances is that they disappear so fast from my skin. And I have fragrances like that, I spray them over and over during the day I don't mind, but I only like to do that with cheaper fragrances. For example I have a huge Aqua di Gio in my bag every summer, but I wouldn't want to do that with a niche fragrance. So if it stays longer on you and you are able to use it in an economic way I think it is a great investment.

Gourmandishly sweet and creamy white florals, accompanied by a warm, zesty rose note that reads almost lemony. Like a gleaming tray of chewy vanilla-milk taffies, and sun-warmed candied lemon slices, served under a pergola of white flowers. For the first hour, I absolutely love this. It's pretty, a little sexy, feminine, and delighted; a Disney Princess on her wedding day. Sadly, around the hour mark, the wood and powder accords come to the fore, the white florals turn lotion-y, and the fragrance flattens out, losing its scintillation-factor for me almost completely.

I finished a bottle of this beauty because I wore it every day last winter. It's an exquisite bouquet of heady white and yellow flowers. The ylang ylang is the star of this perfume, and it's what makes it slightly exotic and a bit vintage and mature smelling, which may not be to everyone's taste, but to me, it's what makes this perfume stand out. It's so sophisticated and smells so niche and makes me feel like a million dollar baby when I'm wearing it. I'll have to get my hand on it again before winter.

The name of the fragrance is absolutely inappropriate just like many names in beauty industry these days. But Oh my goodness this is gorgeous on the skin! So powdery soft and floral and feminine. Just had to purchase a full bottle. My go to spring scent now. Very similar to Dior’s New Look 1947 that I absolutely love too and does have a similarity at dry down to l’instant by guerlain but this is just so much prettier and and niche smelling and up to date where I find L’Instant a bit dated now.

I totally agree with Superbesque's and Van der Sar's reviews. This just may be my favorite now. I find it so beautiful and billowy, very sensual and 'come hither'. I don't understand the bad reviews. To my nose it is very unique and different and the drydown is DIVINE. This also lasts 12+ hours on me, so the longevity is more than I could ask for. Even though I have smelled a ton of white floral perfumes this doesn't smell like anything I own or have smelled before. A strong 10/10 for me!

WOW I LOVE this! I reminds me of Hawaii! It's tropical, but not in a coconut way (not that there is anything wrong with coconut, at all). At least, something about reminds me of a couple of trips to Hawaii I took a long time ago. Very pretty--and also nostalgic for me. I do not know if it is "sexy" as the name implies, but IT. IS. HEAVENLY. Most people will like how you smell, and YOU will like how you smell! I want to keep smelling my arm. But as with any perfume, don't overdo it.

I think this was one that I loved at the start, but began to get a bit bored with after it hadn't changed much after the second hour of wearing it. Admittedly, it was intensely beautiful for those two hours but then it sort of got stuck in a honeyed ylang ylang stage. It's a bit like the fragrance your Aunt wore when you were a kid and you could smell her cigarettes. Its classy. Beautiful. Not at all hard to wear. There seems to be aldehydes in there, but I'm not sure. It's nice.

Creamy and soapy white florals and ylang, becomes more powdery & slightly vanillic as the scent settles. Very much a By Kilian take on a classic Chanel/Guerlain white floral scent. As suggestive as the name is, this fragrance is quite approachable and very likeable, doesn't lend to the carnal. Best suited for cool/lightly warm weather, so spring & autumn with the occasional summer evening. Good sillage, more than arms length. Typically lasts 8+ hrs on my skin.

Wow, this is a magical scent! I find myself loving fragrances with ylang-ylang and this is no exception. On me it has a very fresh, rosy start. Further down the road the vanilla and woods emerge. Ylang-ylang is present throughout. The fragrance is not sweet. It's a floral-dominated composition that's absolutely intoxicating. I does remind me of L'Instant, expect L'Instant is sweeter and more powdery.

Sensual, soft, feminine, sweet and fresh at the same time. Ylang-ylang and Gardenia are more prominent in my opinion, they give suductive vibe and increase romantic mood ✨ Now I understand the meaning of its name:) Placebo effect or true, but while wearing this fragrance you do really feel yourself more relaxed, beautiful, addictive, very woman like and incredibly cute ☺️ Good luck and be inspired 💋

Similar to the classic Nivea Creme (the one that comes in a blue tin) with added cleanness and woods. Rich, creamy, smooth, powdery, woody and floral. Ylang Ylang is prominent, the neroli adds a clean touch in the opening, rose adds the powdery note, and the vanilla adds a hint of sweetness in the base. I really love this feminine creamy/woody scent but doesn't last more than 3 hours on my skin.

I am so happy to have this part of my collection. It is very similar to Guerlain L’Instant but this is softer and 100% more wearable. A cooler weather scent, full bodied, sweet, warm and gorgeous florals. I don’t get any of the rose, sandalwood or cedar. This is purely ylang ylang, tuberose and vanilla, it’s a beautiful creation. I don’t find this sexy, but leans more for cosy cuddles.
