Miss Habanita

Edit: I lost my connection and the site put me as a guest. Each person's skin is a different world. I tried this on at a counter at my local mall and I was very impressed. When I smelled it on paper, it smelled sweet, but there is something behind it. This is not your tipical i am sweet and sugary just like everybody else perfume. On my skin it smells of ripe fruit and creamy richness. There's also some wood there, but it's not so apparent after much later. After an hour or so, it turns into this blend of rich woods, powder and beautiful flowers with still some fruits from the opening. This is high quality french perfume. You just can't stop smelling it. It was weird for me, since I absolutely LOVE Habanita (the original perfume with the black bottle) and any perfume that's strong and spicy. If Habanita is the dark witch that captures you, dominates and makes you kiss her boots afterwards and haunts you forever,, Miss Habanita is the same witch disguised in red and gold tthat prowls outside that can ravish you and make you feel her scent on you all day. It is that good.

For me Miss Habanita is a bright, crisp white wine full of sparkling white grapes blended with over-ripened spiced dark sweet peaches and a touch of sweet dark raisins and red currants. Vetiver and crisp sandalwood lend a crispy, almost spicy, uplifting quality. Miss Habanita is definitely sparkly, refreshing, happy, excitingly delightful "party girl" scent for Spring and Summer, though it's great all year long when you need a lift. Sillage is moderate, and on me, longevity is awesome, staying strong more than 10 hours, until I wash it off. It's a natural fruits scent, with a touch of smoke, sweet but not sugary, unique, very much on the feminine side, but could be unisex, and smells very expensive. I absolutely LOVE Miss Habanita !

Miss Habanita how lovely you are! This is a lush smokey fruit incense. She goes deep into your pores leaving a wispy mix of vanilla and smoked fruit. I LOVE the sandalwoodvetiver mix although I would put it in the middle notes instead of the front like it is rated up top but that is just me. I don't get alot of floral except for the jasmine. Also, I am not real sure why this is a "chypre" but I trust the fragranticians on this site...Any way overall, a WOMANS fruity perfume. Maybe cloying in the humid heat of summer...but a definite winner in the fall and winter. I also want to say this is my fifth Molinard perfume and all have them have a harmony and depth that you just can't get anywhere! Happy Perfuming!!!♥

Molinard Miss Habanita EDT is more than just a fruit cup. Peaches, crisp grapes, yes. It also features some delicate woods and bright green moss, the vivd, fresh moss you see in the forest on a humid spring day. It just suggests freshness. The sweetness of this one is tempered by the other notes. Miss Habanita suggest a connection to nature. This is not the vanilla cupcake meltdown you might get from a celeb fragrance that lists similar notes. Very nicely done.

I had this one for my 18th birthday , it was not this bottle though , it was a much prettier one (maybe a special edition ?). The scent was the same however . I'm not always a fan of the Chypre group , but this one is so special , it's glowing ,it's warm , it's generous and happy , and fruity indeed , but maybe not enough to be regarded as a floral fruity . I prefered wearing it in fall or winter , the sweet perfume are yucky in summer imo :-P
