Don't Get Me Wrong Baby, YES I DO

graceless purity, fumbling with her cue cards. not virginal but still moral, or at least trying to be. teary-eyed smiles and lips bleeding from being nervously bitten, or maybe that's just irresponsible stains from the cherry jar. accidentally breaking both rosaries and promises, all while in a white gown, standing alone in a field of flowers, longing for love and lusting for life in pre-hymneal hysteria. a pink beaded rosary breaking on accident. mother's little martyr waiting for a sultry savior! "sweetheart, you are what you are: aghast, a gash, an earmarked bell jar." an invigorating blast of pure and whole lily-of-the-valley, covered in dewdrops, promptly followed by the all too familiar caress of gentle jasmine. there is a tart fruitiness of pear present, coupled with a whiff of orange blossom. a soft, candy-like sweetness of marshmallow rears its head, and thus begins the 'parenthetical girls' arc. it is a delicate marshmallow, never cloying or remotely close to a cheap vanilla cupcake body spray. olfactory embodiment of resilience and honesty despite fragility, in the face of the most abject masculinity and sharpened claws. etat libre d'orange are correct, there are shades of grey concealed by the pink-and-white charm. dizzyingly girlish with secrets. it's as if a single touch from the wrong hands could cause such a dainty creation to collapse to its bruised knees, but do not fret, it dusts its dress off and is on its way again quickly, albeit while blushing. the aldehydes, oh, how perfect, the opposite of unnatural and chemical-y, so fresh and soothing, like clean satin pillowcases. impossibly clean despite all it encounters. a perfect concoction. for those who cry in bed at night thinking of past, present, and future love, wrapped in satin ribbons of pain and pleasure, believing that naively hoping for the best is better than being hopelessly jaded. how we all salivate when the bells ring! **longevity on skin is subpar for me (becomes a skin scent very quickly, absolutely gone after under a few hours), but very good on fabric (over 48 hours). the jasmine comes out a lot more on my skin, while the sweetness pops out even more on my clothing. much better sillage than i would have expected: i used my travel spray and about 20 seconds later my friend across the room said "something smells so good--what is that smell? is that you?" hehe ~ songs for don't get me wrong baby yes i do: love connection by parenthetical girls, le chant de l'etoile by kuroyuri shimai, the angel in the white gown by stereo julia.

Don't Get Me Wrong Baby, Yes I do by ELDO (USD 55, Tester - B22S064A, Brand New) ==== Refresh note on November 12, 2024 === I declutter Don't get me wrong baby, yes I do - long ago. I believe this fragrance is really impact by removal of Lilial. One of Lilly of the valley material / Aquatic property wildly use to enhance project and longevity. Lilial also works as fixative. In the Lilly of the valley scent like this, this is really impact the formula. That might explain while scent collapse really fast when wear. Because, when there is no assistance for Lilial. The floral structure of this scent collapse. To Coconut Aldehyde (Coconut lactone) that gives slight cushiony marshmallow feel very fast / Cocoa might just be an Vetiver after all. After I retest, I select Hermessence Muguet Porcelaine even I barely wear Muguet. But this fruity / white floral vibe is very hyper-fun for me, sometimes when I need refreshment. I believe, Muguet Porcelaine is discontinued as Lilial remove from the formula so can be no longer create. However, ELDO might just don't care as this is still nice powdery / floral perfume. Drop from assessment. ==== Original review on September 28, 2023 ==== Don't get me wrong baby, Yes I do was instant love for me. I am certainly known that this my ideal Mugget scent, my friend in community always mention. "This is modern mugget" I don't understand I am sniffing this one. This smell quite similar to "Diorissimo by Dior" but it is not actually is. The mugget is in this came across more modern as it is infused with musky base, less green than usual. with tint of fluffiness could like (could marshmallow even though it not listed in official website), I am very enjoying the scent. even more than Hermessence Muguet Porcelaine or MCD Lucky this sparks joy in me. Even, projection and longevity is a little abysmal. Over-spray assisting to make this scent last around 3-4 hours. Before leaving only mild musk-scent on skin when sniff real close, but I do really enjoy this Mugget profile. Score : 10/10 Projection : Moderate-soft, closer to the skin. Longevity : 4 hours as first test around 20 sprays. Classification : Unisex Summary : The Modern Mugget PS. my tester bottle writing Lilial free and I believe this might face reformulation from original release in 2016. I believe that my bottle was produce in 2022 according to the batch code.

The pink and gold bottle is pretty but doesn’t quite represent the delicate lily-of-the-valley white floral inside. Despite the erotically provocative name, this fragrance is an innocent and blushing bride on her all-white wedding day. It’s a demure lily-of-the-valley soliflor fragrance that’s simply soft and gentle. The marshmallow, cacao and patchouli aren’t obvious, it’s simply a musky lily-of-the-vally that isn’t green and doesn’t screech, it’s just calm and poised. It’s very pretty, but not enough for me. Edit: So I wore it today at work and I’m in love. It’s beautiful as it’s such an easy wear, plus this lily-of-the-valley isn’t at all green, it’s a musky, soft white fluffy pillow of flowers. Update: I’ve bought a full size bottle as my everyday go-to scent. Understand that yes, this is arguably a “boring” and unimaginative for such a provocative and experimental brand, but that’s exactly what I want to wear on my person whilst at work and also on Sundays with no makeup and no cares. It’s uplifting, simplistic, delicate, clean and fills me with joy - I don’t want for anything more challenging. Ok I adore my complicated and multilayered niche scents but... this is your plain white T-shirt scent, and you wear your comfortable plain clothes (think Uniqlo basics or your Lululemon leggings) more than your expensive and show-stopping ballgown. I don’t want a complicated relationship, life or fragrance for my routine day. So this is my simple signature scent. I’m glad I found it and wore it properly rather than just smelling the watery, disappointing sample on my wrist. I was looking for something simple, clean and joyful like this, that wasn’t those ambroxan chemical skin-scents. Final update: I sprayed it 20 times today and it still didn’t last until the end of my working day. As nice as this is, that’s a deal breaker for me, so the love-affair is sadly over I guess.

My favourite perfume in my early twenties was Diorissimo by Dior , confirming its beauty after hearing it was one of Lady Diana’s favourite perfumes . So I blind bought this bottle based on its similarity . Yes I do , for me is a softer, lighter , more wearable version of Diorissimo and I am ecstatic ! I feel I have surpassed the vintage , hard hitting formulations of the past . Their golden , amber, syrupy , intense projections from numerous notes, even though Diorissimo was a lighter fragrance of its time . I have the bottle in my collection but it’s rarely used . I understand preferences are subjective but my adoration have always been for green white florals, so fresh and inoffensive . So if you like a straightforward white floral beauty , you should try this . ET - Yes I do is innocent , slightly sweet floral , fresh and light but with the added musk and marshmallow which makes it lean ultra feminine . This to me , is predominately a LOTV scent with other notes aiding to its creation. Orange Blossom on the onset with the aldehydes creating a soapy laundry freshness. Jasmine coated in marshmallows giving the needed sweetness ( love this ). I don’t detect cacao notes ( thank god .) The dry down is white florals and musk with a touch of patchouli in the background . Not powdery on me at all. Well blended and nothing competing for centre stage of the LOTV. This is now my favourite LOTV summer go to fragrance. I agree that the fragrance’s downfall is that it’s fleeting . Indoors gave a better outcome . On my 1 hour daily beach walks, I could hardly smell it . Such a shame but at least the price isn’t exorbitant .

I love this! I fully recognize that it's rather mundane or boring to many perfumistas, especially coming from the house that gave us Secretions Magnifique among other eyebrow raisers. But I find it to be very comforting, like a blanket. Although most people consider this to be a warm weather scent, I think it works wonderfully all year round. There's something about the base notes that provide some heaviness in contrast to the lightness of the top, which is essentially Lily of the Valley - and it's a wonderful rendition of LotV, comparable in quality to Diorissimo. I don't seem to have the same issues with longevity others are experiencing, which is a rare exception for me, but I am a heavy sprayer. This results in moderate duration. I'm considering adding a travel spray to use to freshen the scent up on long days going into nights. In summary, if you're looking to have your socks knocked off by an innovative or provocative fragrance from a brand that knows how to do that well, keep looking. But if you want an all around, simply beautiful fragrance that works in nearly and situation throughout the year, give this one a try. I think we can all use at least one fragrance we don't have to think too hard about!

Girly, and a modern take on vintage, done ELDO style. This has become my easy-reach, feel-good scent for Spring. Immediately, I get hyper-realistic fresh cut flowers with a sharp green note that includes the sap. I feel like there’s just the right amount of gentle soapiness. If there’s a pear note, it merely lends a delicate juiciness. Then I pick up on Jet-Puffed marshmallows still in the plastic bag. The deep dry down is very faint cocoa, aldehydes and sweetness that reminds me of Cadbury Mini Eggs: milk chocolate with candy shell. There is a subtle tanginess, like yogurt, that makes me think (if we’re going to address the gauche marketing) that this fragrance is not at all about the man but is all about the woman. The marketing copy on the ELDO website nearly kept me from wanting to buy this fragrance, but what convinced me is finding it at a discounter for nearly a quarter of retail.

I agree with the reviews that say this is nothing special, especially for this house. But since I don't own any simple feminine green floral perfume yet, I have been longing for Lily of the valley fragrance which is upgrade of Pleasures and cheaper than Reflection Woman. And I think this is it. Plus, I have found really cheap deal for it, so I am going to purchase the whole bottle and I am looking forward to it. Projection could be better and it could definitely be more complex. I cannot sense anything gourmand as well. Marshmallow and Cocoa pod aren't there at all (Patchouli neither). I was shocked when I checked the note pyramid. It is simple Lily of the valley/Jasmine scent, very springish and very light.. So, according to its profile; brand, note pyramid, description and price, it is definitely disappointing. But according to what I am looking for, it will work perfectly.

At first lol this is going to sound strrrrange lol but it smells like a condom for the first 5 minutes lol stay with me tho lol then it dries down to a floral creamy cuddly scent. I looooove it to be honest. It’s fluffy floral and fresh. It’s a fun quick grab. I get a playful, fun feeling when I wear this. I love how I can smell the orange blossom. The dry down is very jasmine, fresh, and sweet but not crazy sweet just a little sweet. I love a marshmallow and orange blossom combo, the jasmine is just perfection also <3 it’s very elegant!!! It’s my favorite part about this fragrance. The marshmallow and cacao adds the fluffiness sense to it. This fragrance screams spring!!! Im definitely finishing my 50ml bottle by summer! then next year I’m re-purchasing it for next spring <3

a big love!! right away it evokes the most beautiful early morning in spring when the flowers just begin the bloom. i love the lily of the valley and orange blossom, i don't smell much of the pear perhaps a slight sweetness, same with the cocoa i think it just gives it a little bitter oomph in the drydown but the middle notes just shine, very green and wet, like the florals are covered in dew drops. the aldehydes in this are SUPER chic. i do get a plastic-y powdery note when i first spray... i've yet to smell a condom but i trust whoever said it reminds them of rubbers, oops!! it's just sooo pretty, a little bitchy too. something claire standish in the breakfast club would wear

Despite the vulgar "story" the company has decided to use to market this perfume (read the ad copy for Don't Get Me Wrong Baby, I Don't Swallow to get the full tasteless idea leading into this one), it is itself absolutely beautiful. It is very soft, floral, a little powdery, and to me has a hint of citrus outside of the orange blossom. But it just has absolutely no sillage on my skin whatsoever. I can't smell it from my neck to my nose, and to smell it on my arm my nose has to be touching the spot. Devastating, because it's exactly how I want to smell all spring. Longevity is also poor.

This smells exactly like my childhood home’s backyard- we had jasmine growing all over the porch and a couple of fruit trees, but only the oranges and lemons ever produced. I sprayed this and nearly cried, this smells exactly like those hot days where I’d take the blossoms off the vine and feel the sticky sap between my fingers. It’s a very true jasmine scent, which I adore as a jasmine girly. I will say just one spray on my arm was pretty strong, as with basically any perfume from this house. I absolutely adore Etat Libre D’Orange, this perfume included.

i love this perfume and repeatedly purchase it with my partner. the scent of this perfume sometimes varies. it seems that the scent differs depending on whether the serial number (on the bottom of the bottle) starts with an "I" or an "A"? the batches starting with "I" have a sweeter fragrance, reminiscent of intensified Earl Grey tea. the batches starting with "A" (or sometimes "E") have a more powdery scent, evoking the imagery of flowers. i love them both!

Yes I Do is bright young clean and ethereal. It opens with jasmine and lily of the valley in a truly amazing way, the aldehydes are like a trail of fresh air in the morning. After a while shyly overlook the orange blossom and cocoa and give a romantic and young aura... the marshmallow at the end accentuates a slight sweetness. It's a really interesting parfume, and I love it!!! ♥ Sillage: 9./10 Longevity: 10./10 Scent: 9./10 Overall: 9./10

Lots of flowers at first spritz. At about 30 minutes it begins to get softer. Very clearly reminds me of Jessica McClintock that I wore in the late 80s. In fact, I'm pretty sure that I have a partially used bottle still. This perfume would be better in spring and summer. It's green, floral and musk. Won't be purchasing this since I can get Jessica McClintock for much less in price. I continue my search for the perfect fragrance.

Just. Wow. I'm not a floral perfume person, but this won me over. It makes me feel like I'm blushing outside of the courthouse wearing cat-eye sunglasses and a short white dress that makes me look like a sexy, dangerous cupcake. From the powdery white florals to the patchouli, amber, and the aldehydes, everything about this perfume feels so pure and beautiful to me. A contender for the wedding signature scent!!!

LOTV, neroli with a hint of musk and a slightly herbal quality from patch that keeps it from becoming and overly sweet big white floral. This is a lily of the valley fragrance; so, if you don't like that note, don't go there, but it isn't typical muguet. I fall more in love with this house. Wearable, complex, different, affordable. What's not to love?

Such a beautiful smell, I'm glad it actually works on my skin type! Has that uniqueness I expect from ELDO; very strong white floral BLAST that dries down into a beautiful marshmallow. Longevity is okayyyy for a womens' perfume sillage is good. One of my favourites, coming from someone who almost exclusively wears white floral perfumes

This one doesn't suit my style as much as some of my other perfumes but I still love having a bottle. The bit of sweetness behind the lily-of-the-valley is actually really interesting. I wouldn't call it a fruity-floral. The lily is on the more delicate side compared to some other lily scents I've tried.

I purchased this in a sample set and I love it. It is very light and clean. Doesnt smell too strong and is a very intimate, everyday scent. I was hoping it would be more of a gourmand but its more musky/floral. I will definitely purchase the full bottle of this.

I've added this to my ever-growing collection of Etat Libre de Orange scents. This house is one of my favorites. On my skin it's akin to I Am Trash. Very feminine and soft.
