Muguet

I am so fortunate to be able to purchase a bottle of Guerlain Muguet Millesime 2022. It is such a treasure to hold the real thing in hand. When I look at the sparkling jewel decorations on the neck of the bottle I am so impressed by the fine details and beauty of the bottle design. The green jewel ribbon is so eye catching and touching it make me feel calm. This smell is airy, pure and welcoming. Performance is slightly below my expectation, especially in terms of longevity. The good news is the package comes with a refillable 20ml purse spray in creamy white leather case so I can carry it with me wherever I go. It gives me a true sense of spring with crisp freshness. It is a mood booster. The notes of lily of the valley and jasmine are so peaceful and clean. Lovely. Absolutely lovely.

Normally I would NEVER spend this on a perfume but I managed to beg a sample at Neimans...... I wept at how beautiful this scent is. Absolutely perfect all the way through.........I treasure it. I feel surrounded in cloud of beauty all day....that is priceless. At work, once I get out of a meeting I run into my office and sniff my wrists like a junkie. I am such a fool for this. I am using sample now and waiting to go beg another. Lasts well and never overpowering. Try a sample if you can get it....and you will hate me for writing this review and addicting you.

I can't afford the real thing, and feel ethically opposed to spending that much money on what is essentially a gorgeous but photorealistic lily of the valley frag, but I'm crazy about the Dua dupe I bought, Divine Green. I suppose it is more of an impression than an outright dupe, but it smells just like the muguet that grows alongside part of my dogwalking route, and, simple as it it, that's just what I want to smell and to smell like sometimes. Anyway, I think I might feel disappointed if I spent more than half a grand on this green and tender darling, but the Dua version scratches the itch, as would some vintage Diorissimo, if I were lucky enough to have some--the current formulation has a bit of a metallic edge that doesn't move me.

I got a whiff of this in the store today, got to take home a paper sample. Nice scent, I instantly thought of Coty's Muguet, the older formulation I had as a kid back in the 70's, which I haven't smelled since. Pretty, fresh and spring like, a touch green, no Guerlaine base though. Not my style of perfume, and with that price tag it is definitely not my style. Even if it had a reasonable price or I got it as a gift it's not something I'd wear. And I do think this "only for sale one day a year" concept is ridiculous. And for $580 it should include a big, juicy man to spray it on me whenever needed. I'm just glad I didn't fall head over heels for this perfume.

Smelled this at Bergdorf's NYC yesterday during Sniffapalozza Spring Fling 2012. Very pretty, since I do love Lily of the Valley scents. But the price was way off...over $500.00. Lily of the Valley is a flower scent that is composed via artificially, nothing natural, no lily of the valley oils. The bottle was pretty too, but ...Guerlain, I love your scents, but I am not a fool. Take this one back to the board...

Just what is the point ? This is elitest and ridiculous. I am sure it will be lovely but putting something on sale for one day in just boutiques .I figure it's their loss as a lot more people might buy it if it was made more readily available. Even if I was outside a boutique I wouldn't buy it on principal.

Equally infuriating is this: The Guerlain Boutique called me about it today. Apparently, it's $585 Canadian. O.K. I paid $260 for Rose Barbare, but this is ridiculous. I wonder if they would send me a sample? NOT!!

I can definitely think of other perfumes I would want than Lily of the Valley for over $500.00 lol!

very infuriating for Geurlain enthusiasts,to have it for sale for one day only!

I got a tiny sample. Smells really nice! but definitely not worth the price.

I would love to have this beautiful fragrance...the bottle is to die for :)
