Baiser Vole Extrait de Parfum

This is a warmer version of Baiser Vole and the 3rd. version I've tried. Unlike Baiser Vole Essence, this doesn't list vanilla in the notes, but it is here, just very softly done, unlike Essence which I found a vanilla overload. Here it is just enough to add creaminess to this perfume. This also lacks that slightly soapy aromatic quality that is in the edp. and the green notes are dialed way back compared to that too. Personally, I prefer the original eau de parfum, as I like that cold, crisp, snap-green, dewy aspect juxtaposed against the creamy lilies. Still, this is very beautiful; creamier than any of the other versions I've tried. It also has fantastic silage and longevity. Of course, it should, because it is an extrait after all. Overall, I'm very happy to have this in my perfume arsenal, and glad I managed to find this discontinued version at a reasonable price.

This was a blind buy for me after sampling the EDP and finding it a little too safe, too cold, too florist’s refrigerator for me. However, I was on the hunt for a lily fragrance after an experience at a farmer’s market where I kept walking past the most delicious, narcotic, irresistible fragrance imaginable, which turned out to be a bunch of pink oriental lilies in the florist’s cart. Where Baiser Vole EDP came up short, the extrait satisfies by supplying that sweetness and richness missing from the former. My 30ml bottle is going fast!

Thank you to Fragrantica posters for getting me interested me in the Baiser Vole range. This is my second purchase as I already have the Edp and I love them both. The Extrait isn’t easy to get, but I managed to do so at a very good price on eBay. It is sweeter than the Edp but I still get lots of green notes as well. It’s a classy subtle perfume, but lasts very well on clothes. I have to say well done to Mathilde Laurent for this range and I will now go on to try others.

I happened upon this perfume by accident in a store and was surprised by how much I loved it. It's so light and soft, but lasts a long time. The bottle is also very nice with the gold lid flipping open sideways. If you are usually overwhelmed by flowery scents, you might like Baiser Vole Extrait. Also, I don't know if it's just me, but I think it smells quite similar to Crabtree & Evelyn's discontinued Carnation. It's got the light spicy floral thing going.

This is a beautyful solifloral - as the whole Baiser Volé collection, succesfully manages both the realistic image and sense of natural lilies, yet it is orchestrated so wanderfully that it becomes nor boring neither simple. It makes the trick of great parfumes, it changes it's facets after mood, skin chemistry and weather... bacause of it's animalic-earthy site I prefer it at most.
