Orlov

Wow, I didn't know what to expect from this one. I had read a few less than enthusiastic reviews from a few blogs. However, this is a winner for me. It's got a powdery but tropical softness going on I didn't anticipate. It's not a heavy fragrance and the tuberose is my favorite kind, fleshy, velvety and fruity, not camphorus in the least, no blue cheese or urinal cake either. The orange blossom and citrus enhance the creamy tuberose, give it a little lift, but don't overwhelm it as they do in other compositions. This is so pretty and easy to wear. I can't think of another tuberose scent exactly like it. Mmmm, I almost bought this blind for my birthday, I should have. Edited to add: I take it back. This reminds me slightly of Datura Noir, but it better! I love Datura Noir so that's saying a lot!

I'm a man and i dare to say this is unisex. I love ouds and woody scents but this is lovely fragrance that i can't resist for my floral collection. Photo-realistic floral esp. the tuberose and jasmine. Bergamot and floral play the main role on the top to heart note before join the musk and vanilla till the end. Very beautiful blended and top quality creation from a highly reputed perfumer who has created the FM portrait of a lady. very hard to get this and i have pre ordered. p/s: reminds me to Hong Kong Grand Harbour Hotel lobby which i used to stay during business trip - they are smelling the same.

I just got my sample and wow! I will be getting a full bottle. So classy and expensive smelling. All the notes are so well blended but I do get the best tuberose with delicate orange blossom. Just the hint of citrus. Ooh gets better as it goes on. Reminds me of other classics but unique and updated. To me it is like getting a really good vintage but fresh and new. Try it you will like it.

Beautiful, Sexy, yet subtle. Pretty. I really love this fragrance. ABSOLUTELY. What a surprise. Orange blossom, tuberose, with a light slightly 'nilla musc. Perfect for me. P.S. The Voters pyramid. Is SPOT ON! Addition: I couldn't quite put my finger on why or what Orlov in Paris REMINDS me of. Until today when I put on Datura Nóir. It is very reminiscent of it. Lovely.

This has been drastically reformulated (company prefers to call it “reimagined”) into a soapy, generic, sharp, shampoo type scent. Don’t even bother.
