Abyan

I love this. It smells just like Parisienne from YSL to my nose. Probably even better performance wise, and the price for quality is amazing. The only thing I dislike about this and Parisienne is that they can be the tiniest bit screechy/headache inducing every now and again. I'm not sure why it's not a consistent thing for me but some days I can't handle them, and I've found that Amethyst Eclat from Lalique smells very similar to these and doesn't give me a headache at all. So it's the winner for me. However I don't mind having this as a backup. If you're unfamiliar with those scent profiles this is a sweet, clean, berry rose that is basically the epitome of a dainty, sweet, naturally beautiful inside and out type of woman. It's so utterly feminine for me and makes me feel so beautiful when I wear it. This scent profile makes me feel things. It makes me feel like the main character lol. This is how Aerith Gainsborough would smell, or at least it's the embodiment of her beauty and kindness. So anyways, yeah, I feel like Abyan, Parisienne and Amethyst Eclat are all basically super similar and interchangeable. I probably wouldn't drop money on Parisienne again because the vinyl note is a bit much sometimes. I do like it, but I definitely find the other two scents to be smoother and easier to wear. All in all, this is an amazing scent and I always want this and Amethyst in my collection. They're perfect signature scents.

I bought this blindly, and I'm glad I did. At first spray it smells almost exactly like a raspberry and hibiscus herbal tea that I adore. It's bright and very fresh, with hints of violet leaf and rose. The dry down is soft raspberry, rose and musk. Nice spring fragrance.

love love love. must buy another one, powerful scent trail and a beautiful sophisticated smell. very reminiscent of YSL Parisienne, but with a lot more power. in love!

I don't get the comparisons to Parisienne. This smells 10x better. For the fans of the not-so-sweet raspberry. Personally I love it.

Close to Promesse by Cacharel ?? For many years, Promesse was my signature scent - until they discontinued it ..sad sigh... Anyhoo, when I first opened Abyan, almost cried with disappointment... until I tried it again many months later- & yes! Reminded me of Promesse - love! By the by, left the cover off partially for a month - I do this with most of my perfumes :))
