Les Garconnes Homage a Gabrielle

This little fragrance stick is a treasure. It strikes a lovely balance between floral and resin, but maintains a relatively low profile so as not to overwhelm. I would describe this as just a notch beyond a skin-scent, so it's a constant presence. I'm disappointed to have discovered this so late, and I'm sorry this house is no longer producing their fragrance products. I'm curious to see if I can find others from this line. There is a lovely creativity to this fragrance, unexpected and wonderfully surprising. A gorgeous value at a relatively low price point. Grab one if you can find it!

When I first applied it, I didn't like it. A bit later, I tried again, and didn't care for it. The leather scent put me off (may be because it was in the morning) but later in the day, I fell in love with it! Very unique scent. I can see this scent can have strong positive vs. negative. But I must say, TRY IT. I'm glad that I did.

These small solid perfumes are amazing. I liked Gabrielle because of incense I think. It's warm and soft. The smell doesn't last but I purchased it to use it sometimes on my wrists during day. It's perfect when you live in big towns with strange smells (pollution...) : Crazylibellules and the Poppies smells are clean.

Elemi heaven. Lovely, piney resin accompanied by the smell of a lambskin handbag. This stuff is so swoon worthy. Because this brand has been out of business for 2+ years and their "crazy sticks" are becoming rare, I only use this sparingly. Best leather ever.

I love the leather in this and the jasmine, too. Definitely the best of these little sticks, and I will be sad when my two are gone. :(
