December 2014: One of my favorites. I've owned my 1 bottle for at least 3 years. So versatile. I wear it day or night, all year round. To me the fragrance is VERY classy, but yet I don't feel that it needs to be reserved for special events. I would not restrict myself with this fragrance. I wear it to bed, often, because it has a soothing, calming effect on me. It also makes me feel very pampered. I wear it casually and formally. It is definitely a snuggle fragrance. My husband is comforted when he smells it on me and we embrace or cuddle. CE draws you in. It is alluring. I've read the description and was surprised that it is considered a gourmand and there are fruity notes in it. I smell the powdery part real well, as well as the floral. I absolutely smell the vanilla. It is a distinct fragrance. It is long lasting. Because of its softness, it is appropriate for business and situations wear you don't want an overpowering smell, but you want others to smell you. If I had a baby, I might spray things in the nursery with it. It is not a clean smell as much as it is a pure smell. If it were a color, the color would be white. If it were a texture, it would be fluffy, like down. I have nothing bad to say about it. I will do my best to always have a bottle in my collection. I just hope they don't discontinue it or reformulate it. The bottle is quite lovely too, feminine and elegant. 4/4 stars. It's really a wonderful perfume.

This was my first introduction to the House of Guerlain, which is now one of my favorites. This scent doesn't contain the typical "Guerlainade" as found in so many of the vintage, and even some of the current fragrances (L'Heure de Nuit, I'm looking at you!). That it doesn't contain this house's backbone is a good thing. The one I'm wearing (vintage, not the bee bottle) opens up like a very *very* tame Giorgio of Beverly Hills with white floral and iris, and none of the oakmoss or patchouli. The peach is present but definitely not as present as Lancome's OG Tresor. The middle notes of lilac, almond blossom and rose are present (I never get the LOTV), but the dry down is the best, warm vanilla and creamy almond. Not good for a blind buy unless it's a vintage mini from eBay. This beautiful perfume is rich, maybe borderline cloying at first, but also a perfect fragrance for a perfect day (I wore this in 1997 for my wedding). While the marriage didn't last, my affair with Guerlain thrived, and my affection for this fragrance has never ended, despite the bittersweet memories of days past.

I wear this all year round to bed. It is soft and powdery to my nose, comforting. But I agree with previous reviewer who described it as elegant and posh. If I choose to wear her out in public, the event is special and dressy. Not necessarily formal, but definitely not casual jeans and Tshirt. She is Sunday church, luncheons and special parties. She is great for professional business as she is noticiable, but not overwhelming or intense. At night, she draws your man in for slow dances on the dance floor or cuddling up anytime during the date, because she doesn't project far. He'll want to get close and stay close to keep breathing you in. She lives long. You are likely to smell her gently lingering on skin the next day or in your scarf or clothes the next morning. This one is not a common fragrance. IMO it is for the mature ( in mind and attitude, not necessarily in age) woman who has arrived; elegant, sophisticated, posh, confident, and who loves expressing her femininity. She's a 4/4 for me. I will try to always keep her on hand.

I loooooooooooooove Champs Elysees. Just love love love it. I don’t like the opening. Its chemically, sharp, a little damp, unpleasant. And it gets even worse in the following 10-20 minutes. But within an hour or so it magically turns into this exquisite floral spring bouquet of flowers. It is simply one of the most delightful floral symphonies I know on the fragrance market. Its layered, sophisticated and joyful, sunlight falling on a bouquet of fresh yellow and white flowers in the drawing room of an beautiful French chateau. Its really amazing that such lightness and natural, non coying sweetness can emerge from underneath that opening. This a showpiece of complex perfumery knowing how to create these layers that eventually finish in this celebration of beauty. Its truly an exquisite floral perfume, I cannot stop smelling myself when I wear this, kind of like when you can’t stop drowning your head into a bouquet of flowers you are carrying.
