La Nuit Trésor 2019

Pretty sure I have this one, not the original one. Really wanna try the OG tho but this one, in my opinion is not bad. I like to blind buy popular perfumes if they don't cost me a kidney because most of the time, I'll like the purchase. This one is no exception. Tbh, when I first bought it, I thought it was overpriced and overhyped, and a waste of money. It smelled good to my nose, but wasn't anything too special. And it was quite flat, as in it felt ike there was no top notes, middle notes, base notes whatsoever. They all smelled the same. So I left the bottle in a dark corner in a while, and just reached for it once or twice during the course of a couple months. But recently, when I suddenly craved for it, I tried it again and OMG. This perfume has aged like fine wine. It's got so much deeper, darker, and even more feminine. The layers also become so much more distinguishable. You have the top notes which are very much berry-ish, a bit sweet, a bit tangy, dark but bright at the same time, feels like some sort of sparkling wine. The top notes are my favourite. The rose and patchouli in this, you can smell them all through out. Patchouli somehow smells like chocolate to my nose, so at first I thought it had a chocolate note. But I realised it was patchouli because I just bought Katy Perry's Killer Queen recently and they both have that chocolatey smell and both have patchouli. As it dries down, this patchouli note becomes more and more prevalent. The base notes are kind of dry, powdery, vanilic, sweet, with strong chocolatey scent and and a wisp of rose, all together will make you smell exactly like a rose-infused brownie. If you're into that, this perfume is for you. What I like but also kind of don't about this perfume is how sharp it smells. Sweet scents can usually be so smooth and creamy it feels like something round, but this one is sweet and feminine but sharp. Like, when you smell it at any note, you'll feel like something kinda pointy is tickling your nose. I don't like that but it really gives this scent the contrast and complex it needs, and makes it feel more expensive and interesting, and not too sickeningly sweet gourmand. That being said, this scent is still flirty for sure, although not in-your-face flirty, like i-want-you kind of flirty, but more like discretely, mysteriously flirty, like come-to-me kind of flirty. Very inviting. If this perfume is an aesthetic, it's dark femininity. Overall, after using it for a couple months, this perfume grew on me A LOT. Don't get me wrong, I still feel what I felt about it at first, like it's still kinda overhyped and overpriced, and still a bit flat, but this perfume ages beautifully with time so I feel like, in the future it'll become even more beautiful. It makes me feel like a princess everytime I wear it lol like i'm the most beautiful, most alluring, most feminine person in the room, which boosts my confidence like a ton. Personally I think you can wear this anytime, even to the office, just not on a very hot day, as you may suffocate everyone around. Also not a scent if you plan to get in a bus packed with people for the same reason. It is potent. It projects and lasts all day. And if you're gonna wear it, definitely go with a skirt or a dress, or something black or dark wine, or purple. Score: 8/10

About a year ago, I accidentally bought this perfume. My intention was to buy the gourmand version. But thanks to this mistake, I think I found my signature perfume. It's a fruity, delicious, juicy, feminine, and rose-like scent. The more you smell it, the more you want to keep smelling it. When I smell it from the bottle, I get the energetic scent of raspberry and the juicy scent of lychee. Along with these two notes, you also get rose and patchouli. Patchouli can sometimes make perfumes masculine, but it hasn't been used that way in this perfume. I also get smoky notes. It adds mystery to this perfume. As for longevity and sillage, I'm very sad to say that even though I oversprays, I can't smell it after 2-3 hours. Maybe my nose is getting used to it, I don't know, but I don't experience this with my other perfumes. This upsets me because I really love this perfume. (When I say overspray, I mean overspray, like 20 sprays or so). By the way, I go to high school, and every time I wear this perfume, my friends and teachers compliment me. One teacher even complimented me five times in just half an hour (I love her sm). Also, even though I sprayed it in the morning, someone asked me about my perfume when I got on the bus after school. I told her, "I can't smell it, I'm surprised you asked." She said, "But you really smell amazing, and I can smell it." Besides these, if you like this, I can recommend Angel Nova for summer. It's another perfume where you can sense the raspberry but it's more tropical and cheerful. I think its longevity is pretty good too.

The OG formulation sounds divine but this is a standalone review for this formulation. This is a beautiful fragrance. One I can't get enough of. I bought a 7ml bottle to test, used it twice in two daysand have now purchased a large bottle because this is an easy love for me. It's sweet and fragrant. The raspberry is tart, sour but sweet, divine, lifted by the bergamot and lychee. The frankincense gives it heady, earthy, incense. The rose adds to the richness. Then the base note of vanilla and papyrus... 😍 I have a love hate relationship with patchouli. I can go either way. But in this, the patchouli mixes perfectly with the sweeter, and, fragant notes and incense. It's truly delicious. For some it may be too sweet or intense but I don't mind at all. I would happily (and have been) sniff myself all day. Lancômes longevity is outstanding. Easily a 12 hour plus fragrance. Mainly the vanilla and frankincense linger on skin. Both are a beautiful mix. The other notes last over a day on clothing. Projection is good too. Definitely at arms length. I haven't seen people to ask their thoughts. Is this the beginning of an olibanum/frankincense love affair for me? It may just well be. I love Nag Champa and the middle and base notes remind me of that or other Satya incense. I have now set my eyes on the intense version. The body lotion is also divine. 🥰

This is a fall/ winter perfume with night time seductive performance. Incredibly sexy and very very beast mode perfume. This is one of my favorite perfumes and I cannot begin to tell you amount of compliments I get on this. I am sad that this is only a flanker and they no longer make it so I am cherishing every little bit I have and I wear on special occasions only. Seductive, sexy, strong, dark, be careful how much you spray ; it is very very long lasting. This is probably one of the longest lasting perfume I own and I have a LOT of them. Strawberry and Rasbery do come out as main notes but not in a sweet innocent way ; my husband/ my gfs/ random people always ask me what I am wearing when I put this on. I can see why it can be cloying for some and very defensive as it's very strong but I love it! We all have different tastes.

Just got this in the mail and I was a bit taken back by the opening which was way more similar to the edt than I though it would be. I really thought this would have a more "dark" scent to back up the marketing, however I was aware that the 2015 version is more praised than this so I tried to not expect too much. After the very fruity and a bit sharp opening it does dry down very nicely I must say. The dry down is more sweet and a bit "dark" in my opinion and I do enjoy it very much. Bottle is beautiful. Update after a day: wore this today on rainy but pretty warm day and I must say it is very beautiful, delicious and sexy. The dry down is just so lovely, deep and sweet. I actually love it so much and it is such a pleasure to get wafts of this fragrance throughout the day. Makes me feel feminine and dressed up.
