Anais Anais Premier Delice

I surprised myself by liking this one. I don't like gourmands at all and appreciate chocolate notes, in particular, even less. I was drawn to this fragrance however by the bottle which evoked memories of the original Anais Anais - one of my very first fragrances back in pre-history when I was a tween. I knew full well not to expect a resemblance between these two scents but I couldn't resist seeing for myself. I also had read favorable reviews and, reading the notes, thought the citrus would contribute some freshness and the galbanum might curb the sweetness of the pear and bring some green to the table. Really, all the notes other than the cacao are notes that I like very much so I decided to give it a try. At first the pear was overwhelming and I'm one who really likes pear. Someone here mentioned the sweet pear in My Fifth Avenue which I have and love. I do see the resemblance to the pear in that one but here it is so much sweeter. Thankfully, about half an hour in the pear calms down and I get the florals too. I do smell the cacao as well but it is not too chocolatey. It kind of reminded me of the cacao in Omnia Paraiba. All in all I like this scent. It's definitely sweeter than what I normally wear but the pear (after the first half hour) is really nice in this and the overall composition is pleasing to my nose. And yes, it's quite reminiscent of Irresistible Givenchy but better, to my nose, for the absence of the musk.

I guess most people who hit "dislike" button is because this new edition is nothing similar to the original Anais Anais we were used to. Actually some notes are similar but are not prominent. This perfume opens with a juicy pear, juicy-sweet, lovely. And after a few minutes comes the cacao, beautifully highlighted with the pear. So if you like these two, you may like the perfume. Personally I love it ! I love gourmand / sweet perfume and this one is definitely. It is very romantic and young, gourmand and flowers. The bottle is similar to original but translucent with pink fluid. In my opinion, this is very unique, it doesn't have the similarities like others members said. Great longevity, more than average, and the sillage is quite good to me, not too big and enough to receive compliments. Oh, and did I mention that the price is affordable ? Will definitely buy ! But it is kind of strong, so depending on your tastes, you may prefer to wear it in a particular season. I think it is good for spring and fall, maybe too much for summer, but will see !

This is an excellent fragrance that one can buy very cheaply nowadays. Here's a bit of backstory: I own and love Indult Manakara (created by F. Kurkdjian), which is one of the very few fruity scents that I can tolerate. However, Manakara is super strong and requires a special occasion. I've been looking for a cheap edt that could serve as an everyday substitute for Manakara, and - here it is! The strongest note in Anais Anais Premier Delice is peony, paired with sweet pear; however, this pear is much weaker than in, say, Franck Boclet Sugar and it doesn't overwhelm. So, the notes of peony and pear constitute the floral-fruity core of this scent, which is then freshened by citruses and galbanum. I can also smell the notes of cocoa powder and hyacinth, although they're not so prominent. All in all, this is a lovely scent, suitable for any occasion; it is a gourmand for people who normally do not like gourmands, and a floral for those who can't stand florals. Good silage, but staying power could be better.

I love this. I got if for an absolute steal at tjmaxx because someone had destroyed the outer packaging so it was only $10. It opens with a sparkling, clean pear -not too sweet. Its sorta powdery in a rice paper way, but I think it's the cacao lending a dry semi-sweet smell. Not chocolaty- I don't particularly like chocolate smell, but sweet rice paper and pear and a hint of chocolate. Absolute LOVE. Love love. Perfect for vacation. Its different then the watermelon bubble gum scents of summer, but not offensively heavy like some winter scents would be. Just very clean smelling. Side note, I've smelled Givenchy "Irresistible" in the store several times, and I'd say it's similar but not a dupe. Particularly the opening. I think Irresistible is more floral in its dry down. down. Delice is sweet in its dry down. 10/10 sillage is just right. Performance isn't great though, longevity is the main issue, with me getting 2 hours of shopping done before it was gone.

This scent is the embodiment of a pretty young girl in springtime. All the notes are detectable, and they all smell very realistic--not synthetic. Dora Bagriche is interviewed by Fragrantica and she talks about the pear ester used by Firmenich, the company for which she works. Fascinating little read and to learn more about the nose behind the scent! This is a spring gourmand--not candy like or baked goods, but the cocoa powder element is just a dusting of sweetness that sits in the background. The peony and hyacinth are fresh and real but not too overpowering. I'm wearing this as it sleets outside and this scent makes me yearn for the springtime! The bottle is simple and restrained in style, well-designed with its smart little cap. Although its packaging isn't as showy or froufrou as some other offerings, I think it's feminine and pretty enough to have on display. I quite appreciate the simplicity. I'm now eager to explore other offerings from Cacharel!

This is SO GORGEOUS!!! I love Anaïs Anaïs Premier Délice. I am truly delighted with it. I love the cocoa that is there from beginning to end, and all the other notes that come and go. Every note comes and stays strongly for a while, then fades down a bit, but comes back fully again. All day and evening, the beautiful aroma of the citrus, the sweet fruity/floral/wood notes blend in and out of the cocoa. Oh I just love it!!! It's so long lasting for an edt, and the sillage is really substantial....my husband says mmmm, often, whenever he's within a couple of feet of me. It is a very sweet, pretty, yet with just enough sharpness (to remind me very much of the original Anaïs Anaïs I used to wear in the 70's.) I loved it, but I love this MORE!!! I think it's a truly wonderful flanker to the original, and the bottle, perfume colour and box are BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!

I love the original Anais Anais in both the original spray can bottle and l'original. This has that DNA, but turns it into something extremely modern smelling and lush. I'd say this is one of the best fruity florals on the market. As many reviewers here say, it smells vividly of syrupy pears with coca powder but it also has this faint earthy greenness that prevents it from being too sweet. Oh and it's fresh too without turning aquatic or heavy on the citrus like most scents of that family tend to do. It does lean a little to feminine for the office as a man, but I bought this on the way a friend's 30th birthday party and everyone adored it on me. I got this for £25 for 100ml and I'd definitely say that's a great price for it. I think this is a decent all year round scent, but I'm in the UK where it's moderate most of the year. Solid 9/10

I hate the original Anais Anais. It smells wayy too powdery and cloying for my taste. I initially tolerared it, but I grew to dislike it over time, so when I saw this on the shelves, I had exceedingly low expectations. Well... Color me surprised. It's actually quite lovely! I expected it to smell pretty generic, but on my skin, it's beautifully complex and sweet! To me, the opening is quite pear/orange, not so overpowered by pear. It then slowly dries down into a sweet floral- which consistently has that cacao undertone. I quite like it. It's beautiful for spring/summer, definetly not unisex. I consider it a very young, girly and flirty fragrance. Longevitiy is a little disappointing. I can't get more than 3/4 hours. Sillage is fine, about what you expect for a perfume. Not very strong, but people will smell it if they are close enough.

Upon first application I was really disappointed - it got this bitter-sweet found in most cheapest mainstream gourmand perfumes for teenagers - mixture of cocoa, orange and labdanum. But in time the dark cocoa note fades a bit and gives way to bitter orange, l and velvety, aromatic pear. Unfortunately peony and hiacynth are barely there but still in time the perfume becomes softer and softer, more elegant and refined. I'm sniffing it today on a warm but very windy autumn day when lots of colorful leaves are still in the trees, many are dancing around in the wind, bazaars are full of fruit - pears, plums, apples - and somehow this scent beautifully completes the whole autumn day impression:)

It’s a gorgeous combination of notes, not too floral, not too fruity, just very well blended together. Perfect for any age who loves floral fruity gourmand. Longevity is about 6 hours on me and sillage is moderate. I like to spray more when I can’t smell it on myself any longer. I also own the Anais Anais L’original (which is a big NO for me) and it’s no where closed to this one. I own a collection of perfumes and this one stands out from the crowd. Anais Anais Premier Delice is like this humble, gorgeous, sporty and confident person who’s not trying hard to impress anyone but somehow others still gets intimidated and jealous with. Complement getter. Safe blind buy. 💯♥️

If you re looking for an ultra girly flowery sweet fragrance for this spring that won’t break the bank look no further! I do think this goes in the same vibe as the irresistible edp by givenchy and if you have one you don’t need the other. Anais anais premier delice opens up so juicy and bright with that pear note (I love pear note in perfume tbh), then it morphs into this really bright and pretty sweet fruity floral. The cacao note definitely is there to add a little depth and it gives this fragrance some kind of bittersweetness I just love. The sillage of this perfume is very good on the first couple hours and the longevity is about 7-8 hours on me.

An honest fragrance — honest because it delivers exactly what the notes suggest: a sweet, simple yet not banal pear juice. Pear (a very popular note nowadays!) is the undisputed queen of this fragrance, now 12 years old. As others have pointed out before me, the evolution concerns only the other listed notes — the pear remains clear and strong from beginning to end. The price is absolutely fair and it convinced me to buy it. Probably, if it had cost more, it would have been torn apart by many here (myself included). Pleasant and crowd-pleasing — in my opinion, it’s worth the money.

This was an incredible surprise. I snatched this up at a discount store, 80% sure I’d hate it or be bored by it and end up returning it, but my curiosity got the best of me. Well. Sometimes I walk up to this and just smell it from the bottle. It’s that delicious. Juicy pears dusted with cacao, and a fizzy effervescent quality reminiscent of a bubbly glass of champagne. So many of the gourmand scents marketed nowadays have cloying, synthetic notes that this thankfully lacks. I went back to the store to purchase another bottle for my mom. It’s addicting. Lasts a while, too.

Lo amooo. Me acaba de llegar y lo llevo puesto hace un par de horas y huele tan delicioso! La pera y el cacao es lo más fuerte del perfume pero al principio es frutoso y fresco. Se pasa esa estela de frescor y queda muy impregnada la pera con las Flores y el cacao. Luego de unas horas se comienza a sentir la madera pero muy poco. El olor que más se siente es el cacao y me encanta. Es sofisticado pero tiene un carácter de mujer joven y coqueta. Definitivamente creo que se convertirá en uno de mis favoritos con el tiempo.

Absolutely beautiful. Lovely and so sweet. Nothing like "la vie est belle". Soothingly delicious; citrus and caramel well put together. Longetivety is quite amazing. It stayed on my jacket for several days. AA PD gives me funny feeling every time i put the jacket on. I love to smell it on me and on my clothes and put it on again and again. Obviously my new favorite. Suitable for all ages. Especially for teens, but I'm not giving it to my GodDaughter!!!!! (she usually gets the scents I'm already fed up with)

I just recently brought this perfume from Duty Free in Dubai, I have not seen it on the shelves in my country yet, so I'm glad I purchased it. It smells so girly and romantic and its more suitable for younger people. Its very sweet, fruity and floral and feminine. It lasts quite long on the skin and I did not need to re apply the perfume throughout the day. I also loved the packaging as well, it's quite simple and it is like the original perfume packaging. I really love this perfume it smells so beautiful.

I'll have to smell AA again soon but from memory these don't smell anything even remotely alike, not even in a flanker way! If it weren't for the name you'd never know they are related. This is a fruity fresh delicate sugar bomb on me. And I love it. I only tested quickly abc wasn't expecting much but will to back and buy the FB. ASAP. It smelled like a strawberry sorbet.

My Olivier Cresp fangirling continues. Sweet, juicy, fresh pear that lasts. Cocoa warms and rounds this. Not too sweet nor too tart. I do pick up the 'canned pears in syrup' vibe but it still remains firmly in fruity floral territory, not a gourmand to me. A fragrance I can wear while sick and not get a headache is a win for me - this is one of them.

i've blind bought it from a second-hand app and i thought i was buying the original one. i was a little bit nervous about it because the og was released in the 80s or 90s. but then when it arrived when i smelled it, omg this is the perfume that i've been looking for years. it is sweet but not too much and flowery, i can get the hyacinth.

I was looking for a pear bomb, but no luck with this. First impression: it's bubble-gummy. Fruity bubble gum, very girly, fun, childish but in the same time grown up. This is what I was expecting Victoria Secret's infamous body mists to be (and aren't). I like it, but the poor performance is a deal breaker though.

I agree, knotslandinggirl - totally! It's a very unique and special perfume for me, and I particularly love the galbanum and pear. All the other notes are there too, especially the gorgeous cocoa! and it's lovely and strong, and very long lasting. Beautiful.

I totally agree with genny17. Nothing on La vie est belle or Si. It ́s really pretty, young, modern, juicy and sweet. The more you wear it, the more you love it. Very good job for a new version. Correct lasting power. A little bit too expensive.

LukeW, the bottle should be clear for AA PD. Revisiting this lovely I bought a year ago, wore mostly in spring. Canned pears in syrup, bitter green galbanum, floaty peony & hyacinth, dusting of cocoa. This just somehow works. Luminous & playful.

This perfume is very fresh but sweet type of fresh it gives me juicy pear with peony and the dry down just melts me it's sweet and powdery just like a rose I can't describe the deliciousness of this perfume in words ♡<3

This is a lovely pear sorbet fragrance! Very similar to Escada's Fairy Love in the the red heart bottle only stronger. It is a wonderful spring/summer fragrance. I think anyone of any age can wear this frangrance.

its always reminds me of turkish shortbread cookies with almond in it. its very sweet and i sometimes crave for this i finished 2 bottles. its a playful, innocent type of perfume longevity is great.

I adore this scent. It is fresh, sweet and delicate. I bought a small bottle but now I want a big set. If they had a little more longevity and sillage it would be my favorite perfume. 💖

Omy goodness! This is absolutely beautiful! Not at all like Anais Anais Original thank the Lord! Ha ha. This is a creamy, sweet, rich, delicious scent! Almost edible! Amazing!

I really like it, it's fresh and safe to blind buy in my opinion because it doesn't smell like a grandma, it's very pleasant and fruity floral.

Beautiful scent. It’s a sparkly pear (pear and peony) mixed with a creamy sorbet. I love it. Beautiful and unique.

It's a beautifully balanced, youthful gourmand fragrance perfect for spring and summer. It smoothly blends sweet, fruity, and floral notes without becoming cloying, heavy, or overly green. Overall, a delightful feminine scent that feels natural and bright. The fragrance opens with a dominant, fresh, juicy pear along with orange and cacao. Bergamot and galbanum are subtle but noticeable. The heart gracefully emerges with delicate florals like peony and hyacinth, and the cacao is still noticeable. The cedar balances all the notes and prevents the scent from becoming too sweet, too green, or too floral. The blending of notes feels modern and youthful and makes the fragrance distinctly different from the vintage Anaïs Anaïs. It has a brighter, more joyful scent profile. ◾ Longevity: Lasts 6–7 hours on the skin, and on clothes, the scent lingers even longer. ◾ Projection: Moderate. It creates a pleasant & intimate scent bubble around you and leaves a delicate scent trail for the first few hours without being overpowering. 🌸 Who Will Love It? - Gourmand lovers looking for a lighter, summer-friendly option. - Those who appreciate balanced, natural-smelling fragrances. - Anyone desiring a youthful, feminine, bright, and delightful scent suitable for everyone. - Those sensitive to strong scents. Some might find the overall vibe a bit too youthful or simple for their personal taste. But it's perfect for regular use. Anaïs Anaïs Premier Delice is a perfect sweet fragrance for warm weather. If you're searching for a gourmand that's beautiful, feminine, delightful, and wearable in spring or summer, try this. Also, if you want a fragrance that’s not too heavy, too floral, too fruity, or too sweet, this is a fantastic choice. ❤️

Anais Anais Premier Delice by Cacharel is a beautiful gourmand for summer & spring time. The opening is heavy on the Pear note along with the Orange & Cacao. Bergamot & Galbanum are not that noticeable to my nose. The Pear is fresh & juicy. Gradually the delicate florals come to notice along with the Cacao. The Peony & Hyacinth are perfectly balanced with the other notes that's why the fragrance is not too green or not too sweet. To my nose this fragrance is mainly a blending of Pear & Cacao with some delicate Florals. It's nothing like the vintage Anaïs Anaïs. Instead it's a Youthful & Delightful bright fragrance without being too much floral,too much fruity or too much gourmand. All the notes smells really natural. The Longevity of this Fragrance is another plus point. Usually I get 6-7 hours of longevity from this Fragrance but even after 7 hours the smell is not totally evaporated. So the smell stays on until I wash my clothes. The Projection is not that heavy but it creates a bubble around you and leaves a scent trail for first few hours. Overall it's a nice option for those who love sweet fragrances and looking for something not too much overpowering for summer/spring. The fragrance didn't trigger migraine also I get complements from people around me whenever I use this Fragrance. Only drawback of this Fragrance is some may find the fragrance too youthful & simple for their taste. In the end all I want to say is Anaïs Anaïs Premier Delice by Cacharel is a Beautiful, Youthful, Feminine, Sweet & Delightful Fragrance for women of all age groups. If you're a gourmand lover and looking for a nice Fragrance for summer/ spring which won't be too heavy then go for Anaïs Anaïs Premier Delice by Cacharel ❤️

I am really enjoying this. I wore Anais Anais in the 80s and cannot understand why this has been marketed as a flanker as I simply cannot (from memory) smell a connection. They have hyacinth, cedar and galbanum in common - but so do many other fragrances! Sprayed liberally after a shower last night, I can still smell this on my skin, some 8 hours later, so the longevity is good for an EDT. It opens with a fizzy fruity explosion; before I checked the notes out, I could have sworn it was peach I could smell. I even checked out the Cacharel website to see whether the notes on here were right, I was so convinced I could smell peaches... The fruitiness remains, but is moderated after 15-30 minutes or so, as the flowers push through. The fruit and flower notes are underpinned by the cacao and cedar, which give an underlying warm spice to the fragrance; this is what I can smell on skin now, some 9 hours after initial spraying. On my pyjamas, the fruit and flowers are dominant, though - I really cannot smell the spice on my clothing. This is light and refreshing and lovely in summer - although sweet, the bergamot, galbanum and orange help to keep it fresh and not at all cloying. Sillage is initially moderate, reducing to a skin scent by the time I checked this morning: longevity 8 hours+. This is a like not a love as my taste runs more to big, warm orientals and gourmands - but I am very happy with this purchase, especially at £34GBP for 50ml.

This is genuinely lovely, don't sleep on it if the original is too old-fashioned for you! It's not at all powdery like the original (I like the original too but it's too white floral soapy/powdery for me, and very much of its time!) Very transparent and dewy. The most ripe, juicy and realistic pear I've ever smelled in a perfume, and the cocoa is light and only a supporting character, but it adds an addictive and slightly more grown up quality to keep it away from generic floral fruity territory. It's as if you're biting into the most incredibly soft, juicy, almost overripe pear, and the juice is dripping down your skin, but the most faint scent of dark chocolate is somewhere nearby in the room. The citrus and cedar is definitely present too, but it's more to add depth to the pear and peony dominance -- this is first and foremost a sweet and fresh fruity fragrance. I like it! Not the kind of thing I'd usually go for but it's well made, simple, transparent, effortless, and surprisingly addictive thanks to that touch of dark chocolate and woods. Safe blind buy if you're a pear lover or if you like Anais Anais but found it too old-fashioned for your taste.

It's a pretty ambiguous perfume for me. My stubborn attempts to befriend the original Anais Anais failed (my mother used to have it when I was little, so it was a nostalgic thing), the lily was too pungent. So I paid attention to the pink bottle, that describes the fragrance perfectly, in my opinion. The first thing that I liked was the design – I still can't throw the box away. But the even after months the top notes right under the lid make me a little dizzy. Either it's a pear that starts it's all or hyacinth, but the start is too harsh for me, it's too sweet and sour. But after 20 minutes all the notes becomes more tender. Sweet, fruity-lemonade, slightly turning into cacao, that feels nothing like the original Anais Anais. I'm not getting rid of it because of the middle and base notes. I want to wear Premier Delice in the rainy chilly weather, that reminds me of the warmness inside. It's very cozy, but I guess in the warm weather it'll choke everybody else... And I sprayed it right before writing this review and looked outside, and it was raining for the first time today. Pure magic ✨

I really don't get how people are comparing this one with La Vie Est Belle! Premier delice is a fruity/floral fragrance mainly with a gourmand accord and some powdery notes. It's soft, pure and innocent. Pear is what I immediately smelled, followed by some floral notes that gives it a powdery feeling. It does not have a very complex evolution. It's somewhat linear with some minor changes mainly on the drydown. La vie est belle on the other hand is a bomb of teeth decaying sweets of epic proportions. It has a pronounced praline accord and lots of iris and more sweets! It's a sillage bomb. Darker, more complex (Not necessarily better) than premier delice. I really can't see the similarities except for the first couple of minutes... Then, the two takes different directions! All in all, Premier delice is a very good perfume. It follows it's theme perfectly and truly depicts the innocence and blissfulness of a young girl's soul! (La vie est belle does not do that!)

Upon spraying, Anaïs Anaïs Premier Delice is like an explosion of sugary juicy pear, almost to the point of being saccharine, which makes me wonder how it can be justified as a flanker of the green floral Anaïs Anaïs. However, given some time, the pear eventually calms down, although it remains dominant throughout the whole developpement. And green hyacinth and galbanum reminescent of those in the original Anaïs Anaïs are revealed. They help to restrain the sweetness of pear, and also provide moss-like nuance, which adds more depth to the composition. The cacao gives a praline-like creamy undertone at first, and turns into a slightly bitter cacao powder in the late drydown. Anaïs Anaïs Premier Delice has a moderate sillage and its longeivty is around 10 hours. I find the sugary pear at first a bit scary, but later it becomes a more balanced fruity gourmand. A cheerful little number to brighten a casual day.

Is really really pretty!!. I love it!. Just as they targeted, for a new generation, the perfect "Premier Delice". Delightful, young, special floral fruity and very feminine. Inside the box is written, proud to be romantic, reflects it very well. Starts with a fresh Pear with Cacao, luscious Cacao, like Praline, which is all time there. Then the Galbanum takes more importance, but in a good way, with the orange. And after this, the floral notes, on me, more the Hyacinth than Peony and seems that there are also other more not listed yet . Different from the regular, has a soft hint in the mid- last part, but much much modern and lighter, maybe the green notes could be the nexus, always in a distinctive manner. Nothing powdery. Easy to wear and long lasting. Good new job!!. With the Cacharel, french signature, with quality.

I got this little perfume at the airport for £19.90: Olivier Cresp is one of my favorite perfumers, so I wanted to add this to my collection. I remember when the og Anais Anais came out, it was incredibly popular but I never felt I wanted it. Premiere Delice is very different. In the opening, l can smell a very pleasant and sweet mix of fruits, flowers and maybe some milk chocolate. As the perfume dries, the pear note is much more distinctive and the perfume takes on a light fluffy, slightly powdery/soapy quality, that reminds me of La Vie Est Belle Vanille Nude by Lancôme. To me, it doesn't smell very similar to Irresistible by Givenchy (which is incredibly pretty) and it is certainly not a heavy gourmand, but it is a very pleasant, sweet little perfume. Longevity is 2 hours unfortunately 🍐🍊🍫🌸🤍🩷

I got this as a gift, and my first impression of it was that it was simultaneously baby cologne-y and old smelling. Not as in "this is a perfume an old lady would wear" but as in "there's an old person smell note in there". Perhaps it put me off at first because I usually look for a sexier vibe in perfumes, but in reality it's a perfectly fine, gentle scent. It has grown on me, despite not usually being into syrupy sweet scents. It's mostly tinned pears and cacao that come through. Soft, inoffensive, comforting, makes you feel like batting your eyelashes in a pink dress and that's exactly the kind of occasion I'm going to wear it to. Sillage sits at arms length, lasts 3-4 hours on me which is alright since it's not very expensive.

There's nothing similar to this fragrance. It is pear and syrup- just like candy smells. I like it in triple digit weather. It isn't cloying or headache inducing unless oversprayed. I also think other qualities will come out in rainy or cold weather (the woodiness). Maybe I'll like this perfume more in colder weather. I haven't had sweet champagne before, but if I had, this is what it would "taste" like to me. This perfume lifts my mood. Putting a boundary on perfume to be worn by a certain age group is like encasing yourself in a prison cell. Buy it if you like sweet and uplifting scents.

Interesting fragrance! Opens sweet and gourmand but fresh on me. On my skin it quickly dries down to a soft floral with a gourmand accord but on my clothes it stays very sweet. It's sweet but also fresh and it's gourmand but also floral. Edit : I changed my like to a love. I have been wearing it quite a few times and this is a very uplifting scent for me. I used to wear viva la juicy a lot when I was a little younger but I've outgrown that one, way too sweet. I think this is a more mature sweet scent.

I really like this. And now that I have it, I really don’t feel the need to buy Givenchy Irresistible. They are similar, but this is so much more affordable. Besides Irresistible is overrated. Not exact dupes, but I would say sisters. It is juvenile, but so is Irresistible. This is cute, pink, playful and fun! A nice simple, fresh, fruity floral that I will happily wear in the warmer months! Edit: One of my favorite after shower scents. This one is a keeper and I will definitely repurchase!

Ahh I wish it lasted longer on my skin, because I really enjoyed how it smells, but longevity and projection are minimal. I wouldn’t call it gourmand, it’s indeed sweet, but not in an edible way, at least for me. I smell mostly pear, delicate peony and a hint of cacao, but it’s subtle. The entire composition is well blended and simply smells nice! Ps. If you love the Original, don’t blind buy this version - sample it first, as it’s very different, and I’m saying it as Anais Anais enjoyer :)

I bought a little bottle of this to try it because I had recently rediscovered the OG and was curious. It is really very lovely. The top opening notes of peach and pear are prominent and pleasing. It is well blended and smooth, which makes it clearly a fine perfume and not something from Body and Bath. I will likely give it to my mom, though because I already have my sweet/fruity favorites. She will love it. It is worth checking out if you are in the market for a floral fruity.

EdT (second review): "Omg, such a pleasant scent!" is what runs through my mind when it's sprayed in front of me, in the air. Sweet (but not too sweet), floral, a bit fresh and beautiful. I think it can be better with some more hyacinth and sweet chocolate and/or ice cream or sorbet added to it. Definately one of my favourites (although it's far from perfect) and I recommend it to those who enjoy moderate gourmands with a floral twist.

Smells a lot like pear beverage from my region's local juicery, along with some kind of dark chocolate treat in the background. This is pear done right! Not like an overly sweet pear syrup, more like a crisp and tart Asian pear. The peony and citrus notes definitely elevate this fragrance; it really feels like every single note is intentionally added to serve a purpose here. Premier Délice is hard to dislike!

This perfume is very nice and polite, without being flat or boring. It is for day-dreamers only. The pear is the main character in the composition - it is soft, sweet, juicy and very long lasting. Peony and hyacinth give flower delicateness. These notes are very long lasting and prominent on my skin. The base is galbanum and cedar wood, but very weak and gentle. I cannot smell any cocoa and citrus.

I am not very good at describing scents but I do get some pear on the opening of this. It does turn sweet on me and I believe I do smell the cacao notes once it has settled down. Sweet and to me it smells very unique. I have received quite a few compliments while wearing this. I have 3 back up bottles and this can be found quite cheap online or at duty free. Long lasting. A love for me. Well done !

Addictive, girly cute pear scent with a sweet chocolatey accord and delicate floral dry down. Soft projection but elegant and inoffensive. Similar vibe to the original Anais Anais edt, but more aligned to current trends and preferences. I prefer the older version cause I love powdery white florals , especially lily.
