Temps de Flèche

Interesting little scent! For me, it's not as light as many of the reviews say, but it's definitely more subtle than Pas de Chat, for example. It's sweet, warm, musky, and leans powdery. There's a very short-lived fruity top note that I was honestly perfectly fine with moving past. The dry down is a warm vanilla almond with a whisper of cherry on a bed of soft woods. This is somehow spicy to my nose, though -- cinnamon, anise, cardamom, *something* I can't put my finger on. It's nice! But for me, Petit Gateau and Pas de Chat will win my favor on my shelf.

Really pleasant gourmand. I'm not usually one for baked goods gourmands but I really thoroughly enjoyed this on skin. Addicting vanilla. I agree it didn't last as long as I had hoped and I had to reapply. Sits close to the skin, inoffensive. Probably good for the office as long as you can reapply. I believe I have tried every perfume in their current repertoire sans one and this was the only one whose performance was lackluster with regards to longevity for what it is worth.

This is like someone standing a mile away and whispering “almond”. This is an idea of a fragrance.

i'm so convinced all of these reviews are "PR" or just simply one person behind dozen accounts... because i'm not understanding the hype. where is the scent? where are the notes listed? i've tried a couple of these fragrances and none of them last for more than 2 minutes? i dont even smell any alcohol which is crazy to say because this is an EDP. although i love odette parfum's aesthetic, i believe this brand is all smoke and mirrors. i also think the pricing is ridiculous for body spray performance. another thing: all my orders came in a cheap bubble mailer and weighed under 4 oz with NO tracking info beforehand... yet they have the audacity to charge $11 shipping? NEVER AGAIN.

What a disappointment. This literally performs like water. I don’t even think that leaving it alone to macerate would make a difference. The scent is so faint. I get whiffs of meringues. Maybe powder? Maybe butter? Kind of like you baked a cake a few hours ago and there are still some traces in your kitchen, but nothing really prominent. Half a hour after the spray, I’m getting some raspberry, but nothing strong. Save yourself some money. There are some other brands that can better deliver these notes.

I blind bought this along with Petit Gateau and Pas De Chat bc I loved those two in samples and couldn't find any reviews of this one but the notes sounded lovely. Unfortunately I feel like this one doesn't say much? It disappears on my skin insanely fast, and smells like a less potent combination of the other two. There's a sweet muskiness there that's reminiscent of them but for me it doesn't stand out enough on its own. Will let it sit and macerate to see if it blooms into its own thing but for now, I feel like if you already own Petit/Pas you don't need this one...

The other reviewers are not lying.....you smell this for 20 seconds and it's gone. Bath & Body Works sprays last longer than this. It's a shame because in that short period of time you get a whiff of a sweet and gentle almond along with vanilla that could've developed into something divine. I'm not sure what happened here.

There's something in this fragrance (probably the almond note) that smells very much like cherry. Very pretty gourmand that's light and not cloying. I really had to spray a LOT of this so I doubt the 30ml bottle will last very long.

I dunno the concession boy at the movie theatre complimented me over the smell of popcorn and that stuck with me..

So curious about this release. Continue to get excited about gourmands! 😉

I am ordering my sample this morning!!! I can’t wait to try it out!!
