Mirabella

Definite similarities with Rochas Femme, the first version without the cumin note. I'd probably be raving about Mirabella if I weren't a longtime Femme loyalist. As it is, the Femme reigns supreme in my heart, though Mirabella is a really lovely scent in itself and not just a tribute. To my nose, Mirabella is slightly plummier than Femme, with a distinctive, sophisticated depth to its sweetness, probably coming from the benzoin and beeswax. But like Femme, Mirabella is very well blended, with no one note predominating. According to the DSH website, Mirabella is a 90% botanical perfume and contains green oakmoss (hurray!). This perfumer doesn't stint on high-quality botanicals, and her respect for these natural materials shines through in the depth and complexity of her creations.

Lovely animalic and very autumnal fruity chypre. There's definitely a touch of Rochas Femme, but it's a bit more musky probably because of jasmine and civet The autumn feel is probably due to plum and chypre, but also because there seems to be an autumn leaf scent - like leaves at the end of Autumn when you smell them underfoot - slightly mulchy and peppery. Really lovely perfume, I'll probably buy a full bottle in Autumn Sillage moderate and longevity average

This a remake of the pre-cumin version of Rochas Femme. It is fantastic, I just wish it was stronger. A sultry and curvy plum vanilla chypre. Seductive and comforting. Performance unfortunately is an issue. Sillage is delicate and longevity 4 hours.

Broom indeed! I do smell broom mingled with oakmoss, green tuberose, spices, & castoreum. I do smell dusty wool and dust in general that u find from underneath old carpets! The calmer the more honey appears. The jasmines gives that insecticide effect beside the green tuberose. I can't deny that it's some sort of addictive for those who loves jasmines honey mix blend.

I love this frag. The sweet and spicy notes together read as carnation to me. Chef's kiss.
