Jardin de Paris

Maceration does not appear to be necessary, but it couldn't hurt I would think. This is the best inspiration fragrance I have found for the OG. Such a happy welcoming scent. Floral flora floral. I couldn't be happier for the price. Those that think it is not an exact copy of J'dore, I must ask....WHY didn't you just buy Dior? Oh wait, I know......the price! :) Opens with magnolia and pear, both having that wonderful green, fresh and watery scent. This smells of late summer in East Texas when the magnolia blossums are dropping off the trees and ripe pears are falling with them. This is lovely. Definitely a safe blind buy and I would purchase again.

@Bettyboob it’s a very good dupe for Jadore, I can’t really tell the difference after awhile.

Gave this a wear test today, the first time I wore alone since July. When I got JDP, I was quite disappointed, it was so faint, it would disappear in less than 2 hrs. It smelled watered down. My disappointment came from knowing it would not be ready to wear on its own for Summer. I had to layer with Rasasi’s Sotoor Seen, which is a beastly performer & it has a comparable scent profile. After being in the cold, dark closet for 3 months, JdP has improved vastly. I got 2 hrs of moderate projection, then an intimate scent bubble for about 6 hrs. The scent notes were very present, it went on a lil journey. Before it smelled like a cheap floral, very little fruit. The fruits are present and blended nicely with the strong florals. It takes its time to dry down, allowing you to enjoy the notes as they start peeking through. Once you get to dry down, it is a sweet, slight musk. It’s nice, easy, and lovely. Right now, I could only wear in the day because it is just not strong enough on its own for night wear. For now it will be in hibernation until next Spring. 8/10

This is a somewhat loud fruity floral scent! I find it quite potent and a big sillage. The longevity is fabulous! The only thing is, it does have a bit of a cheaper synthetic scent! Perhaps, that will mellow out over time. I paid well under $20 and for that price this is a powerful, long lasting, pretty floral. Well worth the price and then some. It isn’t my favorite scent but it is pretty and you get a good quality for the price! No need to wait for maturation on this although I wonder if it will improve over time! I’d say, it’s a good buy and blind buy safe. I just like some other scents more. Edit- I wore this today and boy! It lasted over 12 hours! And still going strong! It’s actually making me slightly nauseous because it’s so potent and I’m kind of tired of smelling this! Spray lighty.

This is a beautiful fruity, magnolia bomb. I think this smells lighter and fresher than J'Adore. I would not treat this as an exact dupe. But it's beautiful as it's own thing, and lasts and projects quite well for a fresher floral fruity fragrance. I can't believe how cheap it was! This could remind you of an older lady from the 90s, due to the slightly astringent flowers and soap-like quality. I personally don't mind it. I was a child in the 90s, and this scent reminds me of elegant ladies wearing tweed suits in early spring.

This is basically a watered down version of Jadore. Unfortunately, it does not last. I get about 4 hours before the scent is gone.

very similar to j'adore! love it!!

I personally didn't like it that much, because I found it not similiar enough to J'adore and I couldn't smell it on my body, it seemed not lasting... But when wearing it I got asked if I was wearing J'adore so I guess in the air it does smell like it. And the bottle it's cute. (It is possible that maybe the fragrance had to macerate. I'll give this a second try)

I have to agree with 876Beauty. This perfume tried to be J'Adore, but failed. The drydown is reminiscent of plastic, that "new eraser" whiff that many 90s kids will definitely pinpoint. Not worth the blind buy, get a decant first. Don't say we didn't warn you.

Can anyone reply to me if this is worth to buy .. I love jadore but for me it’s expensive and cannot afford it.. so I would like to try this buy blind is it work it pls advise anyone here
