Miel & Citron Pailletee Shimmering

when I just remember that I didn't even wanted to try it on my own, but gave in on saleslady's attempt to promote it! I didn't like the original one (too linear and overtly sweet on me, sadly, because this new edition that is my fondling is a limited edition and I cannot see myself some day replacing it with the original) and I most certainly am not a fan of citrus-anything. ok, ok, I enjoyed lazy afternoons with my best friend as a teenager dabbing lemon halfs into sugar, but never have I been a fan of smelling like it... but a splash of Pailletee's powdery greeness with soft neroli trail which gives in more and more to soft, velvety apricot and thick, raw smell of pure honey clearing the path for gourmand footsteps to mark their way into caramels poured over with honey and powdered with vanilla. oh, the pleasure! with my normal 3 spritz on my pulse spots, Shimmering (shimmer actually falls off as soon as the fluency dries on the skin) can be a little bit cloying with it's intensity but I appreciate that it stayes as strong as when first applied even after I shower, so it is a 24+ hours scent on my skin. and after this shiny knight (in shimmering armour) of citrus gourmands defended it's flag's colours, I tent to give other members of this group a chance to be sprayed&smelled and it is quite possible that I am becoming a shy fan of the Citrus Gourmand Group. all because of the ecstasy that is called thy name, Miel&Citron Pailletee Shimmering!

I have Miel and Citron hand cream and I love it, so when I tried the original Miel and Citron and it didn't smell like honey on me, I was upset. But this one fit the bill! First I smelled apricot with some herbal vermouth like accents. I was surprised that the apricot was not into the sour side on me (that's what it usually does). It was juicy and sweet, and the herbal smell made it very interesting. I wouldn't mind it to stay like that, but I wanted honey! And didn't it come. After about 15 minutes honey was all there was. Thick wildflower honey, no pollen, no beeswax. Just honey. Matches the hand cream perfectly, by the way. A solid like. I wouldn't turn down a full bottle.

After searching for the perfect honey perfume, I blind bought this on recommendation. At first I was disappointed - this wasn't a raw, thick, dripping honey! But the next time I tried it, it began to grow on me. Throughout the day, I'd get these whiffs of a sugared, ever so lightly honeyed lemon. I couldn't stop sniffing myself. Every time I wear this, I like it more. I can see how this would be best suited for the warm months, but I've been wearing it this fall and it has worked. It is a pleasantly tart lemon, with a very light, liquidy honey, not a boozey one. The shimmers are nice too - very fine, and not overly noticeable - just a fun, demure glittering.

I just got this in a swap from awesome darlingbuds! And wow i really like it! She also supplied me with a sample of the original version and they smell very different. I am glad that i recievd the whole bottle of this one and not the other. This version is not nearly as sweet and it has a very close ti nature honey smell. I smell VERY slight citrus in the beginning and the rest is pure honey right from the hive. This last a very long time on my skin, which is hard for me to come by. Whan i spray this on my skin I get flashbacks of lazy summer days full of sunshine and warmth... trully beautiful!

This is absolutly stunning:) the honey and lemon goes hand in hand and makes a clear and bright springday on my skin. and it lasts and lasts. warm and comforting and energetic at the same time. this is like the real deal for me . true honey , and the shimmer is nice one the skin . A very nice fragrance to us on any ocations i think . i like to put it one when im going to bed aswell . the sheets and all smells so nice and fresh . just love it to bad my husbond cant stand it:(
