A la Reine des Fleurs

It's lovely! Very fresh and sweet/tangy and exhilarating. Cool, crisp - gorgeous lavender, thyme and rosemary!! Beautiful!!

A year or two ago I bought soap from 4711 Original. Initially I hated the neroli's soapy scent but it grew on me. It has a very nostalgic feel that I can't place in my memories. A few months ago I purchased A la Reine des Fleurs L.T. Piver based on the notes. It smells very much like 4711 Original smelling from the bottle. My first impression was that I did not like the neroli like scent. However, once on skin it morphs into a slightly soapy bitter, pithy citrus (no the sweet citrus I expected). Ive had it on for about 2 hours and am enjoying the clean scent. It's a pleasant, unisex citrus. Another nostalgic scent in a pretty bottle and super inexpensive to blind buy. p.s. I splashed on an Old Spice aftershave dupe and really enjoy the combo.

Starts off with a blast of limoncello-esque or lemon-meringue-pie-like lemon, super refreshing. Quickly mellows out and leaves a pleasant, light herbal scent that barely projects at all. Very nice when cooling off on a hot day or when you want something that's completely inoffensive but still a bit sophisticated. Feels like an eighteenth-century version of Clinique Happy, but wholly realistic, with no 1990s synthetic notes.

ephemeral just like a fresh breeze. when i wake up i pool a little bit in my palms, rub my hands and splash it on my face. it’s a bit like opening your windows onto a green and blue mountain view and taking a whiff of crisp alpine air. nice for imagination and lifting your mood first thing in the morning.

This is a good citrusy and spicy fragrance that is simply nice to put on after a shower. The smell is more unisex by today's standards, but it only lasts a couple hours at most. Nothing too sophisticated, but pleasant.
