Baiser Vole Lys Rose

I love the original Baiser Vole for it's green unadulterated lily. The whole flower, stem and all lily. I bought a full bottle this year as my spring/summer scent. I wear it quite often, though I like to change it up a few days because the pure lily can be quite linear and I get bored of it after a few days in a row. The raspberry addition sounded interesting, so I added it to my monthly scent subscription. I am not always drawn to the raspberry scents. They can be quite cloying to me in the Texas heat and bring unpleasant memories of my MK Very Hollywood asphyxiation experience a few years back. After that, almost everything with raspberry reminds me of MK Very Hollywood. Fortunately, this not the case with BV lys Rose. The raspberry is not overly sweet and somewhat over powered by the original BV lily scent. It just can't compete. While this flanker is a little more sweet, it's still very close to the original release. So close to it, that I can't see the point of owning a full bottle of each at the price. I like it, and would be quite happy with a bottle of either variation, so maybe when I get to the bottom of the original BV, I may replace it with the Lys Rose version. The raspberry addition might be more appealing to the younger women, although my daughter loves the original, like me. The sillage and longevity are similar to the original, though after a while, it was just the original lily that I smelled. I may try wearing both, one on each arm to test for the whole day. Either way, Cartier has a real winner with both iterations of the lily. Love.

Serene, delicate, wonderful , it smells and feels like sugar sprinkled rose petals with a hint of Casablanca lilies added. It is a very simple fragrance, organic and natural, lovely in its simplicity, elegant and calm. The silage is soft , more like a skin scent, lasting power low to average. It makes me think it could have been in the Allegoria line.. I don't know where the concept that it has raspberries came from.... I cannot smell anything fruity here. It is just a delicate floral , powdered with a little sugar but not exactly sweet. It disappears really fast, so be prepared to spray again and again. I totally love it, a perfect spring/summer daytime scent. Edit again: Gorgeous but NOT worth the money. Seriously, zero silage ( skin scent ) and terrible lasting power. It is like fragrant water. You spray it, you smell its beauty, it dries down and it's gone ! Puffff. Clouds of heaven . Spray again. addictive and comforting.

I got extremely excited when i received the sample, fell in love instantly but had to wait 2 weeks before it was available in the stores ! Bought a FB of 100 ml, because i just want to spray and respray without any guilt. This is the most "pleasing" version of the whole family. The rasperry softens the strong green lily opening and provides some vibrancy to this "serious and austere" perfume. Baiser Volé is in contradiction of her name,(stolen kiss) not a flirtratious perfume, it is almost an abstract " intellectual" interpretation of a classic floral. For those who cannot appreciate that austerity and dislike the more powdery version of Essence, might appreciate this lys rose version, a more versatile, brighter flanker which still remains extremely chic and sophisticated. Higly recommended for those who can appreciate lily flower in all her splendour.

I adore Lys Rose for everyday wear. It's so pretty and fresh and classy! It's a green lily with a realistic raspberry. On first spritz, I smell a realistic carnation, right on front of my nose. The lily develops, then the raspberry comes in. The drydown is just pretty and classic and elegant. Compared to the original Baiser Vole, Lys Rose is a bit lighter and more "fun" - less serious. Still the same beautiful lily with an added dose of raspberry. Not a sweet, candy raspberry, but a fresh, realistic one. Sillage and longevity are better with the original, but not bad with Lys Rose. Cartier really did a beautiful job with the BV line - I love all of them!

Another fascinating version of the original !!! As my precedent reviewer, I just have to underline that ROSE refers to the PINK COLOR, and not to the flower. The perfume has nothing to do with the scent of roses, really. So those who are seeking for a new version of a roses perfume, will definitely get disappointed. I love it and I'm already dreaming of having it for Christmas... :-) The pink note reminds me of the Gucci Eau de perfume II, another favourite of mine. Pink, but not sweet; pink in the sense of troubling, discreet femininity... Thank you again, Mathilde Laurent !!!
