Les 4 Saisons: Printemps

Les 4 Saisons: Printemps, by M. Micallef is absolutely one of my very favourite perfumes. It is beautiful - beautiful pink rose, with blackcurrant, and sweet pear and raspberry, and the underlying soft aromatic woods, with lovely lovely vanilla and the tang of bergamot - oh it's truly a treat! It's so lovely. I wear it and wear it. I drown myself in it - I wish I could bathe in it it's so gorgeous. And the bottle is beautiful and elegant and feminine. And sophisticated. And alluring. It's a very very alluring perfume - it attracts people to me!! I'm always receiving lovely compliments, and it makes me feel as pretty as the perfume is!!! What a perfume can do!!!

Really nice perfume! I am a huge Rose fan and have tried many, many 'natural-rose-perfumes' but this one stands out, because of its natural fruity-sweetness. To me you can smell the price on this one. When I smell this I imagine a beautiful princess walking through her rose garden on the castle grounds in early spring. It's fresh of course but has a certain vintage note to it like many of M. Micallef's fragrances. It's very weariable and inoffensive but still doesn't smell like the current mainstream, fruity-floral fragrances on the market. PRINTEMPS is very well balanced and in my opinion definetely one of the best light Rose perfumes out there! Love it! :)

Delicate pink rose hidden between the black currant bushes. It is not lost entirely, its lovely aroma will guide you to it- sweet and gentle, mixed with the tartness of a few stranded raspberries and the ripe scent of juicy black current berries on a bed of leaves sparkling in the morning dew. This is a different rose, a dreamy one, a treasure like the memory of our most romantic days, of new beginnings and moments that bring the promises of a life lived to the fullest. Had it existed in 1999, I would have worn it on my wedding day. And yes please, I'd like a bottle.

Testing from a dab on mini : A beautiful fresh, pink and fruity rose scent. On the first sniff I get a fresh pink rose mixed with crushed blackcurrant leaves and some raspberry leaves and a bit of citrus. No cat pee note and not too much pear thankfully. It reminds me of Trussardi Delicate Rose actually. Can't comment on longevity or projection yet as I only had it on for one hour but so far so good although I feel this won't be a loud scent, more of a delicate spring/summer rose.

Super dewy and clean rose with juiciness from raspberries. Reminds me of Tory Burch Sublime in terms of a “new car scent”, but more feminine and subtle. The woody notes are tamed and this just feels like a second skin. It’s light and somewhat calming. I quite like it!
