Emilie

EDP golden bottle: Starts green and blooms into a soft powdery rose-floral, sweet, very pretty and well-mannered, not spicy or heavy. Very feminine, more well-balanced than Paris. If you like Paris but it’s too strong for you or too strong for the office, try this. It's not a double, but close enough to appeal to Paris fans. Plus the quality of ingredients is better and there are no headaches, and no people shifting away from you in the lift, either. 9/10 for accomplishment and obvious quality :) Update: every time I wear this, I like it more. A serious contender for the place once occupied by "Beautiful" - a really lovely wedding fragrance and excellent in summer. Make that 10/10....

Maybe my nose is bung but I don't get Paris from this at all - it reminds me more of Lolita Lempicka's L'eau en Blanc or perhaps L'Heure de Nuit by Guerlain. Rosy violet powdery delight which is soft yet elegant with the lily and orange blossom adding a crispness which could make this a lovely springtime wear. I absolute adore this, Fragonard have a distinctively French smell about their fragrances and it's compelling indeed. It really is nice to small something so beautifully light and lasting without any cloying syrupy sweet notes that seem to have saturated the market in the past ten or so years. Bring more of these back, I say! Delicate and beautiful to my nose.

I bought this in the Fragonard factory shop, (along with little bottles of various other scents) but this is the one I loved best of the lot. The lady who sold it to me, told me, (unofficially) that this is the basic formulation for YSL's "Paris" -- which had then just been launched, mid-1980s or thereabouts. But they are not allowed to name branded scents or claim a likeness to any branded names with their mixtures (although they are suppliers for the designer perfume industry). I had to agree with her that it is basically a very, very concentrated "Paris" -- and rather lovely if you go for this sort of fragrance. Excellent value too!

My name is Jae and I am slowly becoming a Fragonard addict. After testing Eau Fantasque, I put the rest of the samples away and decided to focus on that one alone. Well, after deciding that I want the 200ml bottle, I decided to check out the rest of the samples. This one stood out and I know this has some rose in this. But it's standing right beside violet. Also, I just LOVE how the bases are light. This is such a bright fragrance. Whatever is going on with this, I can't help but to want this fragrance in my collection ASAP. This is beautiful.

This is my all time favourite from Fragonard with Baroque. Very romantic scent, flowery, sweet and powdery. Emilie is totally out of "main stream". Emilie have very unique Soul of tenderness and comfort. Like a Lady full of Love and wisdom with her Heart connected to joyfull nature. I Love this Scent. ***<3<3<3***
