Private Room

This is my second review. I was so crazy about this perfume, i LOVE LOVE LOVE it so much and i can say it's my signature scent. But now i think this perfume is reformulated (since the bottle turned into the new shape, not round anymore) and it's different from the old version :( just a flat scent - i can't describe in details but it smells alcoholic for me. I've tested in several shop, online and offline store and what i got is the same boring scent that quickly faded away. No caramel, no vanilla, no sweetness that close to skin scent. Oh it was original and not the fake one (i bought them from trusted sellers). I'm so sad... I hope my opinion is wrong, but for now i'll search another perfume that suits me better.

I didn't like this one immediately. About a minute after my first spray, I got nothing but baby powder and sweet tarts. Given about 30 minutes, this turns into a completely different scent. It's still quite powdery, but also warm, sweet, and filled with caramel and vanilla. This one isn't as "fun" as Pink Sugar or Prada Candy, but I'll never have to choose between those and Private Room as they're not appropriate for the same times and places. I'll never show up to work wearing Pink Sugar, but this one certainly has a place at my workplace filled with fashionable and classically-inclined 20-60 year old women. Private Room proves that gourmands can be elegant! This was such a nice surprise.

Private Room is a very soft, delicate, very lightly powdery, very close to skin scent. Smells similar to Aquolina Pink Sugar Sensual, but much more gentle, fresh, lighter, and not as powdery. Silage is moderate for a couple of minutes, then calms down to very low silage. Private Room is perfect for scenting lingerie, since it stays on fabrics until you wash it off. Also great for scenting pillows and bedding with its soft, delicate, gently sweet, feminine, comforting scent. This scent is beautiful, cozy, light, fresh, long lasting and non-offensive. Another winer from Jeanne Arthes !

The comments about there being a citrusy/soapy aspect kept me from buying this, but I just received it in a swap, and I get zero of either, thank goodness. I'm in love. Initial blast is sweet caramel, powdery tonka yumminess. It's fluffy and light, and warm and comforting. FYI, on me, the dry down ends up smelling identical to BBW Brown Sugar and Fig so the lotion goes well with this. Longevity seems to be decent, but it is so unbelievably soft. I had to douse myself in it before bed just to keep smelling it. The projection would be my only complaint.

This is a delightful and unique perfume that is just as soft and round as its' bottle. Nice silage but totally unoffensive if over-applied (I did four sprays this morning); lasts for hours and hours. It has a warm, creamy sweetness, rather than a sharp, sugary one. The musk and tonka make a prominent base for everything else, but this is so nicely blended, I have difficulty tuning in to each note, but caramel is what I sense next. This perfume is like your favorite down pillow. I adore this outstandingly affordable gem!
