Mi Fa

Sniffed this recently on a trip to Paris and had to have it. What a lovely, wafting gourmand this is! I didn't have to put it on my skin to know it was love. It's a red velvet cake minus the chocolate - light, fluffy and airy. Sweet and girlie, a chic Parisian find! This is what I like to refer to as a high end marshmallow or cotton candy. So much more mature than Aquolina's Pink Sugar; they don't compare. If you want to smell sweet, love gourmands and don't want to smell like your local State Fair (not that I have a problem with this at all, but I know some others do) or risk smelling too young, give this European treasure a whirl.

Mi Fa is absolutely delicious! Soft and very feminine but the projection and lasting power is amazing. A couple of sprays lasts for hours on my skin, and on my clothing for days. I find it to be similar to D&G Pour Femme. This fragrance is a beautiful, "grown up" marshmellow scent which isn't too sweet or cloying. From the bottle to the scent itself, this perfume is lovely. If you love sweet scents, Mi Fa will satisfy your cravings in the best way!

This is a beautiful ,elegant, and very feminine scent, and the bottle is absolutely gorgeous I get Marshmallow,Neroli, and just a hint of Vanilla, but, it's certainly NOT Sickly sweet in anyway. A top quality fragrance at an affordable price. Perfect for Spring and summer. Something Mary Poppins might wear when she's dressed up, and out in the Park with Bert.

Mi Fa is Pure Parisian Chic. Pure feminine Refinement. Walking down the Champs Elysees at Easter time. I think it has sadly been discontinued, but fortunately I still have about half a bottle left. I do get Turkish delight with a Vanilla Marshmallow, Neroli, with a bit of Jasmine. That said, it's certainly NOT too sugary sweet.

Incredible ! I love gourmand perfumes which smell marshmallow. Mi Fa is certainly among the best ones. It's so delicate, powdery, sweet and feminine ! And not sickening at all. It smells like an orange blossom marshmallow : delicious and divine ! And the lasting power is excellent. I love Mi Fa !

This scent is absolutely delicious! From reading it was marshmallows in a bottle, I was afraid this would be too sweet, but no! It is soft, sexy and warm. Those marshmallows are made with orange blossom and create a warm, inviting scent that lasts. One of my favourites.

Absolutely love this. It’s elegant fresh and comforting all at the same time. The lavender is a beautiful note here done so well. This is definitely going on my favourite list

I recently give it a full try. Agree with klonk, for the first several hours, it makes me feel like "have a bath with cotton candy", very sweet but it won't choke you up even in the hotest summer day - another good news for gourmand fans. And as I apply same quantity(about 5 sprays), Mi Fa doesn't turn to almond bitterness as Do Re. The drydown is well balanced, not too vanilla nor too patchouli.

Hi, I had a pink sugar and had to give it away. Instead sniffing this sweet pearl of ocean, I felt in love. And imidiately started to search for it from ebay. And found. Now I have this pink lovely bottle with its delicious juice and I love it. Its not too girlish, just perfect sweet gourmand scent with "kicks" for spring/ summer. And this do not smell cheap. Ahh, I love this scent. *Thumbs Up*

This one is SWEET and I like it very much. On me it is a very sweet jasmin with almond& vanilla , it stays close to the skin and lasts a couple of hours.

Category: Gourmand, sweet, white floral Notes: Sprays on very alcoholic, sweet and citrusy. I'm getting a hint of lavender as well but it disappears almost as quickly as it came. Within a few minutes neroli, warm vanilla and bitter almond enters the mix. Altogether it ends up creating a marshmallow-esque, very sweet scent. With time this develops a more conditioner/shampoo like character. Vibe: Powdered sugar. Deep conditioner. Hair salon. Marshmallows by the campfire. Turkish delight. Pampering. Bloomers. Red & white polka dots. Lollipop. Candy. Cloud. Cotton candy. Sillage: 8/10. A little too loud for my personal tastes, although I acknowledge it might just be the sweetness that makes it feel a tad overbearing to me. Longevity: 8/10. Really good longevity, lasted me around 14 hours without ever becoming weak or hard to detect. I could even pick up on it, although very faintly, 24 hours later. Wear: Day. I'd say this is a summer perfume with the sweetness and the neroli in the forefront. Overall rating: 5.5/10. I feel like this is one of those scents I should like, but unfortunately don’t. For the first time ever wearing a scent I got that enthusiastic compliment about how good I smell, but I am a bit put off by the level of sweetness in this. It's truly sickeningly sweet, bordering on cloying. On top of that, there's a note I cannot pinpoint, creeping somewhere in the background that doesn't mesh well with the rest of the composition. My suspicion is that it's the bitter almond - a scent and flavor I simply do not jive with because to me it smells like the Swedish cleaning agent “grönsåpa” or green soap which uses pine oil as its main ingredient. This has that same issue of presenting something that smells mostly edible and then adding a bit of soap. It's like marshmallows had a baby with shampoo and neroli, and for some reason it makes me feel kind of sick even though the scent isn't unappealing by any means. Whatever it is about this scent that puts me off kind of disappears after a few hours and it ends up smelling like deep conditioner. It has that same sort of creamy, balmy scent to it that conditioners do. Unfortunately it remains way too sweet all through out for me to be able to really stomach the fragrance. Lovely on paper, and maybe someone else, just ultimately not my kind of scent. Who would wear it?: Isla Fisher - definitely someone ditzy and cute.

Definitely suitable for those who love the gourmand perfumes with a notable persistence, it is a sweet and almond fragrance, the marshmallows and orange flowers feel good. I am more than enough a couple of sprays to feel it well on the skin and on clothes even after days! I bought the 100 ml but unfortunately I have only used half, I can not finish it .. it is too heavy for me that lately I'm using fresher and lighter scents, less dusty!! I will try to sell it! :-)

Not for me, but the perfect perfume for those who love gourmand perfumes: I can't think of a sweeter perfume! However, it's a "grown-up" sweet perfume, not something you'd smell on a teenager. Sillage and longevity are strong too, almost overwhelming.

Got a sample from Reminiscence in Venice, Italy. I cannot detect vanilla notes on my skin. It smells like strong jasmine, neroli, and marshmallow when sprayed and it stayed like that on me. Jasmine gives me a headache...so this isn't for me.

I thought I would like this, but to me it has a certain disharmony of notes. If you want a gourmand perfume from this line, I would rather recommend Si Do - it's soft and beautiful and more interesting in my opinion.

Unfortunately this doesn't work at all with my chemistry. I get mothballs plus vanilla, very unpleasant. Reminds me of Jo Malone Rose Water & Vanilla. Try before you buy.

Absolutely disgusting for my taste!...It's such a long time that I haven't found a fragrance which makes me sick in this way. :(.....

Not my kind of fragrance; too sweet. I bought it "blindly" - it turned out as a big mistake. I gave it 2 chances - 2 too many ;)

not my type, too sweet but I think it is quite popular due to the very gourmand style of the whole line

i just got my authentic bottle today from my personal France shopper :) Lovely lady. Anyways, it's feminine, a little powder in the background, but I'm on the fence. I will report back. I think I will have to wait for the dry down. I don't think nothing is going to compare to my beloved Guerlain and Chanel. It almost reminds me of Love's Baby Soft, or another one similar to that from the same era, which escapes my mind right now. To be determined.......I feel young with this on :) Edit: After spending a day with her, I have decided, at this point, it is not me. I do not get USA marshmallow, I guess it's the dusted mallows the other review speaks of. It is not really gourmand to me. It is a dressed up Love's Baby Soft, rich girl dressed up. It's very people friendly. I get it, it's nice, but I'm so passed this stage. I just can't find a comforting marshmallow with orange as much as I try. I will stick with Love by Killian. It's a tad smokey, but I do get a great marshmallow smell with it. This is a very safe fragrance to wear in a crowd, and probably will work very well on hot hot days, which is a challenge, for me to say the least. Do give it a try before you buy, if you can. I find with this house, the notes do not match at all on my skin. Giving up on Reminiscene. Sa la vie.....
