Miss Me

J'adore !!! Je l'ai reçu début septembre et il faisait trop chaud encore pour l'essayer. Aujourd'hui 3 octobre, je me suis aspergée ce matin à 6 h30 il est presque 18 h00 et tout au long de la journée j'ai été bercée des baumes, des épices et d'une odeur rassurante de crème pour la peau (genre Roc des années 70). Sa fragrance me rappelle un shampooing des années 80. C'est vrai que la senteur tout au long vous fait penser à du propre. Peut-être un coton imbibé de lotion pour bébés comme évoqués dans les commentaires ci-dessous. Oui pourquoi pas. Mais moi il me fait plus penser à un accord vinyle comme chez "Parisienne" d'YSL (problement ma peau qui réagit ainsi). J'adore (évidemment ;O) Je pense que c'est ce petit côté baumé/épicé qui lui confère cette note lessive (pas péjorative dans mes propos). Très rassurante, très réconfortante.

This hasn’t had a review in a while. I am a perfume collector and had this in my collection for years sealed and in the back of my cabinet. I remember liking this a while back so I opened it today and I was happy that I really still like this. It’s heavy on Ylang Ylang and honey on me, not so much from the orange blossom on my skin. Longevity is very good and lasting for up to 8 hours (that’s on me, can be different on someone else) It’s a sweet fragrance almost candy but nothing like Aqualina Sugar or Prada Candy very different and unusual sweet with a bunch of cinnamon mixed in. Honestly there is nothing out there like this. Again discontinued and hard to find, 😖 Highly recommended 8/10 only because it’s hard to find!

My signature for some time. I went through 3 bottles. You only need one little spray, it lasts so long and is as potent as Angel. Fun, whimsical bottle, but the scent is even better. It's so unique. Cinnamon, powder, bubble gum and vanilla! But this scent is certainly not juvenile. It's too sophisticated. Lasts from day night with hardly any touching up needed. I don't smell any flowers. It’s gourmand but also a powder bomb. Floral green is totally wrong! This perfume is not green at all. Update years later: Mirus Fine Fragrance Questionable Motives smells eerily similar. Both fragrances are hard to find. Disclosure: I sell Questionable Motives at Avé Parfum in the US, but it may be discontinued soon as well.

Miss Me starts as a floral syrup. The floral note is a blend of pink flowers and heavy orange blossoms. It is followed by a resinous scent, which in the very beginning smells kind of medicinal. Slowly, tables turn, the nice balsamic notes are coming forward and the fragrance becomes beautiful, like a fluffy haze of resinous sweetness sharpened by luminous flowers. It's sort of a unicorn fragrance, it doesn't compare to anything I know, I would say it's a scented evocation of a high end candy floss (if this makes sense...). I really like it but I wouldn't wear it everyday, only on those days I'm feeling girly.

If you like this one, you might also like Castelbajac EDP and EDT. This is more of a floral-gourmand with some oriental notes, not picking up the green. I agree with Tarya: this is a sexy and powdery fragrance, very unique. This fragrance does something amazing in humidity... you will smell like the most delicious floral candy. A new summer favorite!
