Wish Pure

Pure Wish is such a fresh fruity - floral juice! Like hardly any other fragrance, I actually loved it from the first spritz. The opening is sparkling bursting with fruity freshness of pear, redcurrant and yuzu. (like zesty yuzu in Bright Crystal!) The heart reveals fresh bouquet of cyclamen, light patchouli and lily of the valley. I can't smell any pimento in it, though. The base is a dream - caramel, vanilla and woodsy notes combination is like a soul soother :-) I can't smell slightest resemblance to Angel. Angel and Pure Wish are like day and night for me. Pure Wish is a gorgeous essence of fruity freshness, delicate florals and lovely calming base. The projection is lovely; the fragrance evolves, it is multi dimensional. Silage and lasting power are really impressive; on me it lasts nearly as long as its predecessor - Wish. It scores 10/10 even though it is not a typical oriental vanilla. Too little vanilla and too many fruit to be called oriental vanilla but it doesn't bother me at all. I love it.

Some reviews are so on point, you just simply need to repost it. Courtesy of "asilverfire614": ***** "I don't like Wish, but I love Pure Wish...they have an entirely different spirit to me. Pure Wish is innocent, soft, demure, a pure young girl who doesn't realize she is sweetly sexy. This fragrance is a harmonious balance between florals, fruits, and powdery patchouli. The pear and red currant were most prominent in its opening notes on my skin. After an hour or so I could detect the white flowers, patchouli, and a touch of vanilla. Dry-down was a beautiful sandalwood patchouli and lingering caramel. Lasting power is about five hours for me. This is great for winter..it warms my body and encircles my clothes like a soft fur. And as a bottle-fanatic, I have to add the the bottle is simply stunning in its elegance! :)" ***** -AB-

Why on earth has this been discontinued will always be a mistery to me. It's one of the most wonderful oriental vanillas one can have in their collection! I always get compliments at work, both women and men are stopping by to get a whiff, I always get oooh and ahhhh and I hope that Chopard will bring it back to the market! Very feminine, seductive fragrance. Hats off for Nathalie Lorson for creating such a gem. Score: 10/10

for anyone that loves innocent by Mugler, this is very similar..difficult to find..loved it.

Updated review: I have had this lovely long enough to get well acquainted. She may seem like a shy and delicate version of her big Sis 'Wish' yet she is so very different in character. She is definitely pure with her fruity-vanillic aura which ripens to a creamy woody caramella drydown. I love that the note pyramid is quite detectable in P.W. yet, the top notes still linger during the drydown making her unique. She is a gentle fruity ambery vanillic lady with an edge! A burst of summery fruit greet you at the opening, rendering a bright quality to this precious juice. Mandarin- orange mingles superbly with the succulent yuzu and the soft pear (quite noticeable and one of my favorite notes in a perfume). To liven things up a bit, comes the faint yet crisp red currant which zests things up. The middle notes are amazingly soft yet quite noticeable. I can detect an pink peppercorn note that reveals her fiery spirit, yet it is not sharp but has that patchouli vibe to it. It does project a beautiful cool note of Lilly of the Valley even as the vanilic base notes make their appearance. Fresh and light becomes warm and velvety on my skin. The pear lingers still while the caramel emerges. It is simply gorgeous with it's creamy sandal and cedarwood drydown . She goes on sprighly, mellows to a delicious vanillic and caramel powdery drydown that stays close to the skin yet radiates quite nicely, giving off sweet and cuddly whiffs of pure pleasure. To me, she is nothing like my beloved Wish, yet I love her just as much!
