Harvest 2008: Ange ou Demon Jasmin Sambac

Ine the bottle this perfume smelled like very nice jasmine and then on my skin it quickly turned to smelling like baby wipes, which i didn't like. but once it dried down a bit it started to smell like soft sweet jasmine again. Hours later after wearing it for a while outside and on trains, it smells like purely sweet with a touch of soft flowers. It is very nice, i like it! x

Ange Ou Demon Jasmin Sambac 2008, has little variation to the original Ange Ou Demon, but I can assure you that they are different. I perhaps prefer this fragrance in many ways. Ange Ou Demon Jasmin Sambac 2008 opens a little less dark and presents more jasmine and lily notes. The overall blend is quite lush and vanillary. At times I can detect a vanilla ice-cream accord, which is in one word, delicious. The powderiness tends to be absent, and is replaced by an interesting and rich creaminess. It is perhaps more angellic than the original, however it has lost a lot of that gothic aura which made the original so enticing. Ange Ou Demon Jasmin Sambac 2008 feels a little gourmand at times, particularly when the tonka bean creates a nutty texture in the heart and base. I guess I find this fragrance a touch more feminine and sweet, hence the reason why I'm more inclined to wear this version of Ange Ou Demon. The sillage is pleasantly soft and intimate, it gives me the sense of floating on top of the clouds. The longevity is good, but in all honesty it could be better. I'm actually intrigued to see whether the 2010 Harvest version varies all that much. From what I've heard it's a fruitier take.

The perfume is kindalike a in-between version of Ange ou Demon and Ange ou Demon Tendre(in a good way). It's not that dark and sensual like Ange ou Demon but obviously have something more or deeper there than the innocent appealing Ange ou Demon Tendre. First after I spray, it's quite similar to Ange ou Demon, but much fresher and I can smell a lot of Jasmine, it's quite dominant in this one, as the name suggest, of course. And the Jasmine actually goes all the way till the end. After about 15-20 minutes, I got quite a lot of Ylang Ylang, somehow interestingly, this remainds me of Chanel No.5 Eau Premiere, the same kind of elegant but morden and confident feeling. After the reminisce of Chanel's, the Jasmine is back, more dominant, and to me it felt like walking in a garden in a summer night, you can feel the wind, the flower and grass scents flirts with you in the wind and you can hear the cerdar(?) singing in the grass. Finally, in the dry down, on me the perfume gets warmer, with a tiny nutty hint, similar to Ange ou Demon's, but only a tiny bit. I really enjoyed this perfume, if Ange ou Demon is a little bit too heavy for you, and if you like jasmine, this one is worth trying!

Everytime I wear it and enter public bus I'm affraid someone will say that I smell horrible, but I insist on using it :):):) Nearly all my girlfriends hate this smell but men adore it. Probably I've been a man in my previsous life:):):)

It is very similar to the original edp with maybe a little sweeter touch. Lasting power is good, lovely bottle.

Very strong jasmine scent. I like it but when I wear it it makes me nauseous, so I gave it to my sister:)
