Parlez-Moi d’Amour Eau Fraiche

Hi Anita. I just purchased a stack of fragrances from Target yesterday, incidentally they seem to be clearing out their fragrances. I purchased the mini gift set of four. Only for the bottles, it was in fact a blind buy. However I am very happy that I did. It was . 9. Aussie dollars. Inclusive are the EDT's 10 mills, 'Encore' and 'Eau fraiche', plus the EDP. There's about 20 or so unopened bottles of mainly EDP's under my bed waiting for celebratory occasions to give them to myself as gifts. Well that's my excuse for buying fragrances at irresistible and ridiculously cheap prices. I must actually stop my compulsive fragrance shopping habit. Online too. This one I tried yesterday, actually last night. Very green, somewhat reminiscent of 'Chanel No 19' upon first whiff, though not as metallic. Long lasting to, and soft, yet bold enough to enjoy when whiffing is close. Newly mown hay came to mind along with cows and farms and a damp country side. Dairy country. More like early Autumn in farming country, anywhere on the planet, where these botanical scents mix with animal and earth scents. This fragrance screams class and elegance. It has an expensive twist, the kind one gets with 'Chanel's 'and the 'Dior's' of the fragrance world. As this fragrance died down on me, it kept it's unique aroma till the end. Linear I believe that is. Will chat to you soonies, Anita. I promised I would mess age you back and I shall. I highly recommend this fragrance to anyone who loves the wholesomeness that marries country scents with sunshine and greenery. Cheers T.

I don't wear floral fruity scents often but this was quite enjoyable. A fresh candy scent suitable for adult crowd as well. There is more to it than to average product of its kind. To me it was delicate, feminine, frilly scent of young jasmine,citrus,very finely milled, barely noticeable powder and a just a tiny bit of medicinal woods. Very pastel, transparent and casual, clean, sweet and nice. Great for sunny weather. I prefer fresh clean scents but with a stronger background and presence (harsher, perfumey and less girly, if these words work better), but this was just plain pleasant while it lasted. Wears beautifully too - does not go too sweet and/or stale as it does with many fruity scents.

I had this perfume 3 years ago, but back then I wasn't so enthusiastic about perfumes. Recently, I saw a picture of it on the Internet and oh how the memories flooded back. I can remember exactly how this perfume smelled 3 years ago even when I didnt care much about fragrances. I remember the scent, the settings and places I have been with this perfume. It is SO unique , so carefree ,is the word. It really makes you feel some type of way. While most fragrances make you feel indifferent, no matter how good they are, this one hits the spot. So nostalgic, fun, carefree, joyful. It possesses a very deep character. despite the price. I'm so sad I can't find it anywhere anymore.

Perfect perfume for spring and early summer. For those times, when nature starts blooming, but the mornings are still a little chilly. Really fresh and pleasant. There is nothing harsh or over-the-top in this perfume. All the fresh notes combined with a hint of musk make this a scent that is easy to wear, but doesn't smell generic. The staying power is surprisingly good, since the citruses usually vanish immediately on my skin. The currants and the flowers tone down each other very well, so it's not too flowery or too fruity. It's young, romantic, summery and innocent, in a good way. I think this would be a perfect perfume for a wedding.

It takes me back to summer holidays at my grandparents house. Smells like delicious frozen berries dessert and fizzy homemade lemonade. So idyllic. I'm 10 years old again, my fingers are sticky from picking ripe, juicy white currant and I'm stuffing my face with all the goodness from my grandpa's garden. It's late August afternoon and air is heavy with smell of flowers, grass and fruits. It's still hot but you can feel light cool breeze- sign of upcoming evening. Parlez moi d'amour eau fraiche is DREAMY, sparkling scent of grapefruits and white currants mixed with sweet and naive jasmine- rose combo. Worth trying!
