Womanity Eau pour Elles

This is definitely more oceanic and salty than OG Womanity. The opening was really alcoholic, this is almost what I imagined Liqueurs De Parfum would smell like, but it faded quickly. I didn't get much strawberry in the beginning. It took maybe a half hour to start detecting that sweetness. It's strange that people say that this is a more 'approachable' version of OG Womanity because my experience the opposite. To me this is like "Womanity Intense." It's as if they cranked up the salt and removed the wood to reveal more of the fig. One absolutely remarkable thing that I have mention is how they really nailed the marine sea notes. I really feel the salt water shoot straight up my sinuses! It brings me back to being a child on my boogie board, and a rough wave dragging me under and I finally surface with a ton of sea water in my nose... Alternatively, imagine you just used a neti pot with some saline solution. OG Womanity is more woody, leafy, grassy, above ground, more meadow-y and sunny, more spring time in the park. A natural woman with no makeup sitting on a picnic blanket with a basket of oranges on a humid day and has only JUST started to sweat. Eau Pour Elles is more ocean, seaweed, salt air, sand. A mermaid laying on the jetties. It's also a little more moody and dark. I guess because it smells like being submerged under water- I am imagining dark clouds looming above. Summer and lightning with a glass of wine.

You can definitely tell this is a flanker of Womanity, but compared to the coldness of the original, it's tame and much more approachable, and the scent is soft for a Mugler. The caviar is noticeable but doesn't smell like fish, more like fresh sea salt. The woody and leafy fig is there too, but the fun is in the strawberry note. It's very sweet but it's ripe and lightly honeyed, not candied. And the fresh, green, woody saltiness brings balance and makes the fragrance definitely mature and seductive. This is not a little girl's strawberry candy perfume ! This is the scent of a grown woman who knows what she wants. Unique and strange but addictive ! It's a shame this is discontinued. It's a hard but rewarding hunt to find this beauty. If you want a fresh, mature strawberry for the warm season, and you like Muglers but want to stay into relatively safe territory, here it is. Update : the warmer the weather, the better it is. On a warm sunny day, it smells like fresh and clean skin, just out of the shower, with a fresh salty vibe. It's not aggressive and synthetic like many marine fragrances can be. It's very clean but in a natural, organic way. Unique and beautiful.

The only version of Womanity that I could wear. ( and love ). I had the original one, it was very synthetic to my nose, and then I had the Taste of Womanity which was wonderful but so strong I felt suffocated and couldn't wear. This is perfect. It starts with strawberries, well done, not very ripe, rather green , and without sugar or cream, then it quickly turnes to figs and salty ocean air. The juice is pink in the bottle but the smell is green. The figs and sea water last a good time, and then the perfume simply disappears without transforming into anything else. The bottle is gorgeous like all other versions. This is refillable, which I think it's great , because you can reuse the gorgeous bottle and fill it up with whatever you want after you finish it. Fantastic, definitely more delicate than all other versions. Simple. And yet quite unique, based on tree notes... strawberry, figs , sea water . I don't smell any unwashed armpits or other nasty body odours ... I wonder where that perception comes from for some reviewers .... Love love love this one.

I have to stop trying discontinued perfumes ... I fall in love and then what 😂 I already have an original Womanity and even though I like it a lot, I find it a little bit cloying, especially the opening. But I really appreciate the saltiness and originality of it. I found a refill bottle of this for a good price, so I bought it with intention of pouring it into the empty original womanity bottle. But whet it arrived, immediately after smelling it, I had to find a backup no matter what, and I was lucky I found a full bottle. This is so amazing... it’s everything I wanted Womanity to be. Less cloying, a little more sweet from the strawberry, and yet, it still has the original DNA that makes it so special. The strawberry here is soo good, not at all artificial or plastic like in other perfumes. It’s hard to describe perfume like Womanity, but if you know the original, just imagine it a little bit lighter with a lot of juicy fruity sweetness. But it’s not weak even though it’s EDT, it’s still a Mugler 👌 I fell in love hard 🥰

To me, this smells like the sea. I grew up swimming in the Mediterranean sea, eating watermelons while smelling the thick, salty air, feeling the sun burning my face, hearing the waves crush and children playing in the heat. This takes me back home and feels familiar. I see myself, 15 years younger, a teenager, embarrassed but free in my bikini, feeling the crust and scratch of sand grains as I imprint my feet in it, running to the water, swimming, cautious of jellyfish, floating in the water, catching the salty breeze, hearing the cheerful screams of children running away from the waves and then chasing them again, feeling the sun and salt purify me. This is it. However, I now live in central Europe and find it hard to find an appropriate occasion for this. I feel like it would be much easier to wear where I'm from, where it's summer 9 months a year. I do like the scent, but it feels a little awkward where I'm now.

I received this in a swap last winter and instantly HATED it! Relax, said the swapper, give the weather time to warm up and then see what you think of it. Well I broke it back out last month and WHOA - this is THE quintessential summer perfume. I live in the south where the humidity is amazing yet this stuff makes it nearly bearable. I love walking outdoors and smelling my arm where the salty strawberry clings. I can smell the sea water which is amazing because I never realized sea water could have a scent but Womanity Pour Elles pulls it off perfectly! The fig is certainly there too but this one has GROWN on me. What smelled "weird" and maybe even disgusting in the winter months has become my go-to for the summer of 2016. This stuff is amazing. It's an acquired taste, for certain but if you give it a chance to settle on your skin during these HOT months I think you'll love it the way I do. ;)

I have phases when I like womanity and phases when I don't. Really odd! I feel the same about angel. Generally love both , or at least think that this is a great creation. Not so mainstream at all. Unique , unusual and very marine like. When I smell this I think of summer time and the ocean ! I smell the salty water , sweet milky figs and the strawberries. This one is a tat easier to wear than womanity EDP , which is quite strong and different. , almost a cold scent , like wind by the sea, with a metal tinge . I think of the colour silver. I prefer this to the original, but I am not a die heart womanity woman. So this is a sweet, salty strawberry marine scent that enjoyable on a hot summer day ! Funny thing is , to me it has no base notes. And a very light existence. Quite likeable but wishing there was musk or some sort of a base to it. Are the deeper notes the caviar ?

This is a fragrance that divides people into Love it or Hate it group. For a long time I was in a so called 'Hate group'. I coulnd't stand it at all. When I tried it at a drugstore I just couldn't wait to wash it off my wrists. I immediately put it on the perfumes I dislike list. Then months went by and I got this one as a gift. I really had to fake a smile while I was receiving tit. But then I gave it one more try, and second and third... and now I really like it. No, it's not gonna be my signature scent, but it's so different than the perfumes that are on the market. It's woody and salty but at the same time sweet and sultry. If you're tired of fragrances that just smell nice and samey, try this one, you'll definitely smell something out of the box. And if you can appreciate this smell you'll start to have fun with it.

I tried the original Womanity in autumn and it smelled terrible on my skin, way worse than on paper, dry and metallic. Now I tried Eau pour Elles on a warm day (and again on a hot day) and it's so much better than I expected. It's juicy sweet (not green) fig and strawberry with a salty marine note. It warms nicely on my skin and doesn't become too metallic. I'm not sure how exactly caviar smells (obviously I'd rather invest my money in perfume than in seafood), but there is a savory edge to it. Overall it's a rather linear scent with a jammy feel in the drydown and good longevity. To me it's very different from other fruity summer fragrances and also from Womanity EDP, at least when I tried it the last time. I'm not sure if this would be nice in cold temperatures yet, but I think it's great for summer!

This is a magnificent fall smell... it echoes part of the summer, and yes the strawberry is prominent from start to finish, but not girly at all, i suppose due to the difficult black fig and caviar.. I must admit that this is the third time in my life that my initial "oh gosh, no, by no means!" to a smell, was followed by awe and enchantment: the first was with hypnotic poison by dior, the second by comme de garcons 2 pour femme, and now this!! (it reminds me a lot of Chapeau Bleu my Marina Picasso, though the notes differ...) I've been wearing it for more than 8 hours and it smells delicious! Definitely an unusual combination and an aroma for those who can stomach perfumes with character! The notes on the list don't do it justice - you have to test it on your skin, to see if it suits you....

I finallllllllly got to sample this! Yay!! I tested this with Eau Pour Elles on 1 wrist and the original Womanity on the other. This version is similar in the beginning to the original, there was a quick tease of Strawberry and it seemed to go hide in the bushes until later. Although similar at first, this was still less woody than the original and therefore more sweet tart fig topped with salty caviar. This is where the similarities end, as the dry down comes to play! The strawberries dominated this for the last couple of hours, it was sweet yet not overly so (perhaps the fig was toning it down), as true to a real strawberry as possible! Very beautiful indeed, and definitely the seductress Womanity's younger, more innocently flirtatious sister. Originality 10/10 Longevity 10/10 Sillage 10/10

This feels like holding a shaken Strawberry French Martini in a salted brim cocktail glass with your freshly done iridescent "unicorn" manicure, as you jam to a foreign neo soul song in a beach lounge🍸🍓🌊 it's coy and vivacious yet unassumingly sophisticated. it feels like coming across a dolled up young woman who's actually deep down truly poised & grounded, is refreshingly articulate as she talks about layers of society, art history and how doomed we are with this era's politics. the sensual beachy saltiness set as the counterbalance between the polar opposite beings of strawberry (coy/youthful/superficial) + fig (mature/stoic/plush) creates this immaculate aura that I'm beyond annoyed won't ever be able to wrap my hands around! even this bottle stimulates my interest like no other...

I blind bought this knowing full well Thierry Mugler fragrances and I do not always get along well. Angel is my nemesis and Alien works with my chemistry only sometimes. I am so glad I went for this! I absolutely love it. It smells sweet and a little fruity on me. No fishy smell, but I can definitely sense the caviar/marine notes. Its a "notice me" fragrance that is not for the faint of heart. Silage is enormous and this lasts on me from morning till night. This is surely a love it or hate it scent. I have over 70 bottles of perfume and until now, I have never had a signature scent or even anything I wear two days in a row. I think I may have found my signature. I have ordered the original Womanity to satisfy my own curiosity and I am hoping its as incredible as this one!

The smell of the sea is uncanny in this when you first spray it, which is really impressive. Smells like when you're driving toward the ocean on the highway with the windows rolled down. Wish it stayed salty like this on my skin--the fig dominates later, and it doesn't smell bad, but it's not as natural as I would like and has a synthetic body lotion edge someone else mentioned. Strong like for me. Props to this Womanity flanker for its original approach to fruity summer scents. EDIT: Wore this to the beach recently and fell in love with it. The strawberry lingers a lot longer than I initially gave it credit for, and I can get past the metallic fig note enough to appreciate how deliciously salty it is. Made it to my want list.

YAY! I could never stomach the full force of the regular womanity, although the scent was unique and i WANTED to like it. This is perfect for me, since it smells almost exactly like the normal version, just not soooo salty. At first spritz, i thought eau pour elles was going back just as womanity did, but after a bit, that little fruity hint came out of the woodwork and now i think Im sold. Even now, about 12 hours later I can smell the woody fruityness radiating off of my hand, dispite a few hand washes. I am happy, and even ready to seek out some more womanity flankers! EDIT: Tart strawberries and wood for sure! I cant believe I hate womanity and yet this may easily become my signature alongside light blue! WOW!

The beautiful classic Womanity gains a touch more light and sweetness through the addition of a sweet fruity note. As a result, the fig moves slightly into the background, and the composition becomes less leafy-green and more gourmand with fresh fruits. It is romantic, charming, and sweetly feminine, while remaining mature and well-constructed. Longevity and sillage are good, closely comparable to the original. Wearing this discontinued gem was a great pleasure. Yet I could not help reflecting on the saying le mieux est l’ennemi du bien, wondering why one would seek to improve upon such a beautiful original in the first place.

Another wonderful swap thank you to my swap partner. GORGEOUS salty scent blast hits you up front. Very potent yet soft. I must admit I really dislike the original Womanity. . This one on the other hand is a masterpiece. Honestly there is not one single thing about this fragrance that I do not enjoy, even down to the bottle which I love. I do smell the woody note and I love it. There is salt upon first spray but that fades to a lovely soft warm woody scent that is not overly fruity or gourmand. An absolute beautiful flanker that is far superior to the original in my humble opinion.

I simply love this smell, it's very special, like no other. They say this is a softer version of Womanity but, at least on my skin, it's not. On me, Womanity is kinda sweet but Eau pour Elles is more woody, and stronger. The sales girl insisted that if I want something stronger then I should take Womanity. But again, on my skin, Eau is stronger and better than Womanity. I can't stop sniffing myself! :))) I tried hard but i can't smell any strawberry in it, thank God! Doesn't last too long though, I have to reapply like every 3 hours, but silage is perfect.

You know its a good perfume, in my opinion anyway, when: people smell it on you and they want to keep smelling more and they want to buy it :) And well a good perfume tells a story and puts you in a mood when you wear it. This is by far my fav from the Womanity range. Its mellowed down from the other ones, less powerful and salty and metallic, more fruity floraly sweet and feminine. It also has a certain romanticism and elegant feel to it. It definetely makes me come back to it.

I have just ordered my 4th bottle of 80ml womanity eau pour elles!!! I am so happy when i find it! It' s fantastic! i love it! it's fresh it's clean it's "sea"!! I also love the womanity edp but this is more feminine. it stays all day on my skin and on my clothes and eventhough i do not smell it, i get many compliments. it's like a cloud around me, this is my true "aura". Salty, sweet, fruity, clean. so complicated and yet so simple! Do not buy it! i will keep it all to myself!
