Tilleul

I just ordered a decant and can't wait to try it! I love Eau de Ciel but as others have noted its becoming very difficult to find, and the EDT version is all I've been able to get, the EDP is impossible to find. Since the notes of Tilleul are very similar I'm hoping that this might be able to replace it. UPDATE: I just received my decant, and what an exquisite fragrance this is! It's like sitting in a meadow under a blossoming linden tree with wildflowers everywhere, and a soft breeze bringing the scent of fresh cut hay. It's a wonderful place to be, especially in the midst of this cold and snowy New England winter! It does bear a strong resemblance to AG L'Eau de Ciel, but I think I might like this a little more. I'll have to start saving up for a FB once my decant is gone!

I love Linden Blossom trees when they bloom in the Spring/Summer. It is an amazing scent. I truly love this clean floral scent. The D'Orsay Tilleul, is the only fragrance that I have tried that comes close to the actual blooming tree. The Jo Malone Lime Blossom fragrance does not even come close to this scent. Again, if I am walking through Central Park, or down my street, where there are Linden Trees blooming, the D'Orsay fragrance matches that scent is beautiful to wear. I have also tried the L'Artisian scent that has Linden notes and it does not come close to the actual tree. Let me know what you think, but this is the best. D'Orsay also make this scent in a large body splash bottle to apply liberally all over your body for the summertime heat.

This perfume doesn't smell like perfume! It smells like nature herself offered you to smell her blessed creations. Every human being on planet earth has one time in her life felt the scent of nature that a warm wind carries; closed her eyes and inhaled deeply - and then smiled. (This is what i hope for at least) This is one of those winds! It smell's like walking underneath a big blooming linden tree. It smells like dry hay. It smells like walking in to the part of the grove that lies in shadow at the moment. And most of all it smells like eating a bit to far down on the watermelon, so that you also bite into that white part. Amazing amazing perfume. A true homage to man's fascination and awe over nature

splendido profumo che imbottiglia quei giorni di primavera inoltrata in cui i tigli riempiono l'aria del loro odore intossicante. a quella proponderante sensazione si aggiunge un po' di fieno, poi un tocco di anguria. l'effetto complessivo è, non esuberante, ma delicatamente primaverile e fresco, come una serata ventosa di fine maggio. anche stavolta mi piace un floreale di olivia giacobetti. ottimo. PS ricorda un po' il tiglio dell'erbolario.

All I wanted was realistic scent of linden and I got it. The linden smell reminds me of my childhood in the city. I don't really find anything sweet in this composition. I still can not believe how realistic to the real linden blossom this is. The watermelon is hardly recognizable, it's just perfectly blended. The longevity is not too long but I don't mind it since the scent itself is so natural.

Tilleul is a spring/summer dream in white! I can smell the linden but also some fresh white lily (I know its not in here but it smells a bit like it)and the mouthwatering melon in the beginning.Later on it gets soft and clean and like fresh mountain hay... very lovely scent and also in my Top10..special also because i never smelled anything like fresh linden-hay before! great one

My vintage Tilleul has just arrived. I feel like a happy bumble bee rolling in this intoxicating flower, bathing in its golden nectar.. It is a pure joy... Elena, thank you for your linden blossom article and for pointing out the vintage's the way to go. I have the current version which has a strong aquatic watermelon opening, a totally different perfume, so much greener.

It's very polite and calm. Tilleul starts very flowery and fresh, so on first sniff I felt it was no less than amazing! Later, however, came the drydown and it wasn't as amazing anymore. It grew tired, heavier on the flowers and much less on its fresh notes. So bottom line, I love love love the lovely start but not as fond of the annoying drydown.

Yes, it's a spring/summer fragrence indeed. But I need it in autumn/winter, when I miss the smell of linden blossoms, even though I don't like the opening with watermelone note. It disappears on my skin after about half an hour, otherwise I would not be able to wear this fragrence. Tilleul is a gorgeous scent. I love love love it.

This is an incredible summer fragrance! Warm,sweet linden dominates, while hay and honey notes are clearly perceptible in their supportive roles- A nice thing about this fragrance- the warmer you are, the more it blossoms- (Poizan- I got my sample from an online decant supplier called The Posh Peasant that I found on Google.)

I love this fragrance! It smells clean and fresh at first. Just like walking under the tilleul trees while the winds blow the little flowers down. But it turns to sweet then and really reminds me of Paul &Joe's Blanc..

"She's like the wind" kissing linden trees blooming, greens sweating sweet dew, wet earth and fresh mornings of spring. Gorgeous! It lasts already for 12 hours and sillage was pretty noticeable the first 6 hours.

Wonderful, natural scent of linden blossom. A bit of beeswax adds to this natural feeling, as linden blossom contains this lovely honey smell. I am in love with this scent, this is so natural and beautiful.

I know this one is with linden blossom and Frederic malle's en passant is with lilac, but they both are so familiar. They have the same creamy base which i completely love.

I love this scent. It reminds me of early summer. If they could bottle a scent that smells like fresh tennis balls out of the can, and this perfume, I would be in heaven.

Indeed lovely,it is my favourite.It's so fresh and inocent...I find it more suitable for late spring-early summer.

Finished my small bottle and searching for another, if anyone is selling please contact me!

exactly the same with en passant! floral with a bit green. beautiful as spring

My skin don't get along with citrus-notes, they often turn very male'ish on me. here I found a true beauty! Fresh, crispy and superfeminine scent - perfect for summerdays. I totally fell in love with Tilleul after just wearing it a short time. So if you can't wear strong citrusfresh scents - try this one. The Lime Linden-note is gorgeous! fresh, green, crispy and on me - with a small airy hint of sweet Mimosa. I will hunt down several parfum's that contain Lime Linden - a new favourite fragrance-note. Min hud gillar inte citrus-noter, de blir oftast manliga på mig. Här har jag hittat en riktig skatt! En fräsch, krispig och superkvinnlig doft - perfekt för varma sommardagar. Jag har fallit som en sten för Tilleul, bara efter att ha haft den på mig en liten stund. Så om du har problem med citrusstarka dofter så prova denna. Lindenblomme-noten är helt underbar! fräsch, grön, krispig och på mig - en svag luftig aning om Mimosa. Jag kommer att jaga fler dofter som har Linblomma - en ny favorit-not hos mig.

When I ordered this fragrance I expected to have something light, girly, innocent. I was mistaken. This fragrance has it's own vibe and distinctive character. Feminine but mature at the same time and far from innocent. It's greenish, and rather imposing. It is difficult to confuse it with another modern scent as nothing resembles it. I have l'été en douce and it has hey and linden blossom as well but it's quite different and more light and modern. I would say Tilleul has a slightly retro vibe in a good sense giving it uniqueness. I easily detect beeswax and airy slight honey note. It is very pleasant and have a descent duration (10h or so on clothes).
