Jardin d'Essai

This is amazing, I can't really put this fragrance into a specific scent group. It smells clean, yet it gives a warming feeling, like you're being embraced by sweet fruits as melon and raspberry. It's not cheap smell at all, it's like your sweet oceany fragrance that you wear to a really expensive sunset party, done in the best labs of the town. It's really projecting but in a pleasant way, it's not like those perfumes that get into your nostrils forcefully, it's like a friendly invitation that you cannot resist and keep wanting to smell more and more. As a warmer weather appropriate fragrance, I rate it 10/10. Longevity is really good and the atomizer is AWESOME, it allows for you to control the amount that comes out and has a really fine mist. I find it very feminine but I believe that a confident guy pulls this off. Because confidence is everything, believe me! It's one of those perfumes that you can smell yourself throughout the wearing. Sometimes perfumes are really strong and long-lasting but your nose gets blind as the hours go by. I love this and will purchase more from the brand in the future for sure.

If you are a fan of fruity fragrances, try this one out. I wasn’t familiar with this brand, so I sampled before buying a full bottle. It is fruity without being too sweet. There is a slight tartness to it and it has some nice amber, caramel and vanilla to warm it up. I also get a bit of patchouli, but the fruits are the main focus here. It’s a happy fresh and fruity perfume, perfect for a spring/summer day. It also has a bit of sexiness in the dry down to take it into the evening. Can’t think of anything I’ve smelled that’s similar, which is a plus.

Just got this sample, firstly I am a Vanilla, sandlewood and fruity girl. I for so long have wanted a clean refreshing scent that does not smell sharp, heavy on floral notes or like baby powder. So this is such a beautiful and elegant alternative. Cant wait for the summer because it’s a fresh/cleanish fruity scent. It smells so different, I can’t think of a fragrance that smells like it. Buts it’s in the style of like Omnia Coral Blvgari. Like in the fresh fruity vibes. I really enjoy it. I would wear this with like white, beachy clothes, something beautiful that flows. It’s a safe blind buy on my opinion. Not in your face but pleasant and not in your face. Just lovely.

This! Is how a friutchouli is supposed to be done. Really lovely for Spring. I got this last year as a blind buy. Wasn't impressed but I didn't return it and let it sit. Wow, time alone in a dark cabinet did this juice some good. Mainly a tart raspberry in the opening with a nod to faint floral, clean slightly scratchy patchouli that balances the sweetness. Im so glad I kept this.

There are two versions of this perfume. Edition Blanche, which is this one here, and Edition Murano, which has completely different notes. This is a fresh fruity patch. Lots of orange, tart bergamot, and gritty raspberry, but patch reins them all in nicely, supported by musk. I don't like fruity scents, but this one is very enjoyable. Mediocre performance.
