Jardins de Bagatelle Eau de Parfum

Very heady bouquet of opulent and heavy white florals. You have to really adore pure white flowers to appreciate this, but if that is your penchant then this is among the best options for your distinguished taste. There is an overripe quality to the scent, it isn't fresh, powdery or green.....it literally resembles an array of fully blossomed white florals bathing in sun nectar for hours on a sweltering summer day. The texture is dewy, abundant and opaque. An uplifting and extroverted tuberose is the most prominent and she's paired with a well-behaved earthy gardenia and a soapy jasmine. The latest formulation is powerful and this is coming from someone who rarely calls a fragrance beast mode. Characterisation: Strong, self-assured, obnoxiously confident, but in no way arrogant, the heart of the party, surrounded by company, echoes of laughter, flamboyant opulence, pearls consipicously falling from her neck, red lipstick, a baroque brooch, hair swept into an Audrey Hepburn bun, oversized Chanel sunglasses. Although shes overbearing, you love her company, you can't help but smile and you regret her absence. Edit: gave this to my mum cause of her love of tuberose. The sillage is the most beautiful, soapy, opulent trail, such an enhancement 😍😍😍😍

A breathtakingly beautiful, creamy and soft, moderately sweet white floral with a green, citrusy opening and a smooth, woody base. A very elegant, elevated, classy blend of tuberose, jasmine and neroli that rounds up so nicely after a more sharp opening. If I wouldn’t have Van Cleef&Arpels’s Gardenia Petale, I would probably pull the trigger and purchase on the spot a bottle of Jaedins de Bagatelle EDP. But because the dry down of Jardins de Bagatelle is almost identical to Gardenia Petale, I will hold off. Nonetheless, this scent DNA is unbelievably good for white florals lovers.

What can I say, I love vintage-smelling stuff, and Bagatelle fits the bill. It's one of those perfumes where I find it hard to discern any notes, because I wouldn't say that the flowers in it are at all realistic. But it is a thick, juicy, sunny scent that I haven't stopped adoring ever since getting a bottle back in December. It is uplifting and summery while at the same time having a richness and nobility that make it a good evening scent as well.

Jasmine, Lily of the valley, tuberose, ylang ylang, gardenia, with a green garden accord that I really like. It attracts mixed reviews but I find this easy to wear, really joyful, with an impressive sillage. Florals can sometimes be suffocating and heavy; but this is light, yet tenacious due to the superb Guerlain blending.

Very feminine. Very Old School without feeling entirely too dated. Very very Guerlain. It’s floral and musky with a hint of freshness. I get a bit of greenness from it, as well. I wouldn’t say this is a safe blind buy unless you’re a Guerlainaholic like me. If you are, you will probably love it.
