C

all of courrèges’ perfume bottles had me hooked, so I asked the sales associate for something with a fresh laundry vibe from the line, and they suggested this one. initially, it wasn’t my favorite, so I set it aside and tried out some other options. as I left the store with a different perfume, I noticed a soft hint of fruit mixed with that clean, fresh laundry scent, which turned out to be this fragrance. I regret not buying it, but totally will after my new bottle finishes.

It's love for me. An airy, gentle, soapy scent with some woodiness in the drydown. It's extremely beautiful to me, also extremely expensive. I have a hard time justifying this price tag for this scent.

Lovely clean, light, floral in a gossamer musky cloud. The ambroxen is undetectable to me here (I loathe ambroxen). Perfect Spring/Summer scent & perfect for layering.

Sometimes ambroxan, iso E super etc. when used at reasonable ratio, has a quite pleasant effect to my nose (see Escentric Molecules, Comme Des Garçons, Armani Privé etc.) Such is the case here. While I often bemoan fragrances that use these powerful materials in ways that block out the rest of the notes, here it acts as a woody unifier making everything smell a lot like delicious red cedar oil. Slightly left of unisex, this kind of one-note scent (which there is a huge market for including me) really drives home the point that perfume prices are absurdly high right now. Something will give when we just refuse to pay this kind of money for this kind of thing. But price aside, this one smells good. 3 out of 5.

I'm surprised how negative these reviews lean! I quite like this scent! It's my perfect "laundry" scent and, for me, it's a much more wearable "laundry" scent then others out there from the category (Blanche from Byredo for example - or anything else in the category that rely on aldehydes..) I do get the comparison to other "skin scents" but this has more amber (ambroxan), giving it a deeper, richer base than fragrances like fleur de peau. I often wear this to sleep or on days spent at home when I want to feel extra cozy, clean, and fresh. Definitely my favorite from this line but I've yet to try to new hyper- releases (mirrored bottles).

Странно малко отзиви за този аромат, за любителите на това направление в парфюмерията би трябвало да е познат и обичан. Днес е първата ни среща, покупка без тест. Знам,че като си "почине", ще се разкрива още, но все пак има какво да каже. Да, наистина чист аромат с уклон към силна мускусна база. Трябва да имате химия с такъв тип, но ако ги обичате, вероятно е така. На byredo blanche прилича само по настроение; започва ярко, подобно на t-shirt h&m, продължава в кремест мускус тип narciso, има нещо от not a perfume, честно казано, жасмин е много необичайно включен тук и не е типичният. Абсолютно унисекс. Май ще бъде от любимците ми.

This was my favourite from the range. It smells like Palma Violets as it has a fizzy purple floral, almost like an iris/aldehyde. The musky base is soft, clean and comforting and the ambroxan gives a skin-like scent which also helps make this last longer. I like this, it’s very unusual, I think I’ll wear this again tomorrow.

I like this scent! It's a clean musky smell, but the jasmine is really present. It's not just a nondescript clean floral, I really smell the lovely jasmine. Stripped clean jasmine flower and sweet musk. Lovely.

Weird scent. It smells like you entered a well-ventilated, cold mall or a high end store. Clean, dry, papery. Not really laundry or fresh. I need to get used to it, but it is unique. To me it doesn’t smell like the suggested musc invisible by JHAG(that one is more pure laundry and cotton). This one is unisex, and it has zero sweetness in it. Not a blind buy safe.

Not sucssesful blind buy for me... We’re not vibing. The scent reminds me of the dry down of a men’s cologne. I’ll give it another try in a few months.

A very clean laundry scent fragrance, light and pleasant. Not particularly exciting, just nice.

Smells like a dryer sheet and a pencil sharpener

Nothing special combined with a smidge of jasmine on an industrial base of ambroxan. So many scents that smell similar—and I don’t care if it was built around a concept. Only caveat: C has major stamina... but it’s also is a hard pass.

This oddly reminds me of nail polish remover. There is a softness that isn't quite coming through for me.

Smells like Molecule 01 or Fleur De Peau but with some sugary citrus, like the kind of light sweet citrus notes that a baby cologne has. The musk is also an airy baby skin musk, slightly peppery and doesn’t not come off as soap or detergent on me at all THANK GOD. I love M01 so of course I liked this a lot as an everyday scent and it doesn’t come and go, it was linear and stayed a surprisingly long while and I received compliments even though it’s not strong. I have several baby perfumes, one from Tous and one also Bulvgari... but I’m not crazy about them at all, this is like a molecular adult version of a citrusy sweet baby cologne and if you like the Molecules, Dyptique Fleur de Peau or Glossier YOU, you will like this as well.

Unfortunately, my experiences of C on strips are very different from the other reviewers or dear Miguel. My first try finds an artificial citrus, with some lemon flowers coming in later; I cannot help thinking of dish detergent. During my second try, I sense some jasmine, and with the citrus, it leads to an image of newly cut grass; yet still with a plastic unpleasant feeling. (And this is not the fault of ambroxan. Yes, ambroxan is here, adding some transparent crystal texture, but the plastic feelings derive more from the slightly green floral jasmine.) For me, this is a narrowly acceptable bathroom fragrance. If it is conceptually intended, then I do not think it gets executed well.

Like this scent a lot. It is soft, clean, cozy like a blanket out of the drier in a cold winter morning...the scent is fluffy and pretty. The Ambroxan tries to behave. It seems it has been used with a least some moderation. Unfortunately, it feels like gasoline and broken glass trough my sinuses. It is a shame, it is a very nice scent and I find it very pretty but it seems Ambroxan is like kryptonite for me unless what has been used is really little. I think it's a great scent that deserves some love, if you can tolerate Ambroxan with no issues. I will pass.

It’s strange , even though I got compliments on it , I personally disliked it . It has some unfresh feel , maybe it’s the fabric note ? It felt like wet cardboard at some points , it’s not jasmine nor soft musky . Leans more masculine , I detect bergamote , peppers and bit of musk . It’s quite light - not a perfume quality . It’s like one of those shower gels for men , but with added cardboard or fabric .

I love it. It smells very fresh; very expensive soap; very watery; and very clean. But the Jasmine in it- oh my God! The Jasmine adds just purity to the over whole fantasy of wearing this perfume. But it can be a bit stronger; if so then it'll be a serious competitor in Fresh perfumes category.

This is one of my favourite “clean” scents. It smells like freshly washed laundry taken off the line, warmed by the sun and ironed with a touch of jasmine water. It reminds me of carefree summer holidays at my gran’s and warm July evenings. Simple, clean, and very nostalgic for me.

so so so beautiful. extremely long lasting. smells absolutely divine and i usually don’t care for a clean laundry accord. top 3 courrèges fragrances alongside le messager & hyper oud

The aldehydes of a fragrance like Blanche with the pencil shavings of Molecule 01, not a bad mix at all, excited to spend more time with it

Why does this smell like anise to me? I loved it on paper but now that I got the full bottle it just doesn't smell good on my skin.

Smells like fresh laundry, rather wear clean clothes than wear this *shrugs*

Smells like a luxury soap, something you’d smell at a fancy hotel

Why is Annick Menardo missing as a nose for this fragrance???

Smells like Blue Chip soap in South Korea
