Pure eVe

As soon as I sprayed it I knew that I need to have it.it's simply so me.I love almond and musk pure eve is all about musky florals and almonds.I tried to ignore it because it seemed to be too light and I like sillage monsters but I really love how it smells and it was heavily discounted because of valentine so I brought home a 3oz bottle for myself and I don't regret it Pure eve is indeed very soft and this softness is what makes it heavenly gorgeous.it's very powdery but doesn't feel very dry.it's sweet but it's sweetness isn't sharp or syrupy so doesn't seem to be too much.there's nothing sharp or heavy here.everything remains soft,pretty,calm and smooth.it also feels very clean without smelling like cleaning products.it's a feminine scent in my book,there's nothing male ish here but it won't seem out of place on the right man too Almond,musk,something like a creamy vanilla and soft,powdery florals(very much like heliotrope) and soft,fluffy sweetness is what I smell here.imagine sweet musky baby powder with nutty,almondy nuances.a delicious baby powder Imagine you came out of shower and moistened your skin with an almond body lotion and then sprayed a sweet powdery sugary musky vanilla scent and after an hour there's a combination of these two creamy and powdery scents.very cuddly and warm.lovely to go to sleep in this smooth cloud and have sweetest dreams It's very inoffensive,beautiful and versatile.it's wearable year round as daily perfume,at work or even as date perfume.whenever you want to feel comfortable,humble,relaxed in simple also pretty way.it's so beautiful and balanced that I can wear it everyday without feeling nauseous.it's like a sweet dream.smooth and soothing and cozy.don't afraid of musk and aldehydes,it's not a old musty scent.it's very modern.pure eve is like a cuddly beige cashmere sweater. I love it and I highly recommend it to whoever wants something soft,clean,delicious,delicate and pretty ❤❤❤❤

I first wore this fragrance as Pure Virgin and can recall when half the bottles said Pure Virgin and the other half Pure Eve. I don't care what The Different Company calls it...Adam, Eve, Virgin, Vamp... as long as they keep it in production :) The opening is elevated by aldehydes. It's not so much that it lifts a specific note, as give the entire opening a sparkling slightly peppery character. Pure Eve is clean, though not a result of the aldehydes which can present as soapy. There's simply not a single note which might ground this fragrance to give it an earthy feel. There's no warmth to be found either, which might have been interesting. It lacks complexity and once you get past the aldehydes, there's zero development. I love it, despite the simplicity or maybe because of it?? Pure Eve is very easy to wear so lovely and helpful during the unusual times. It smells mostly of vanilla, powder (think baby powder on aldehydes), musk and almonds. I'm surprised to find no listing of marzipan, because it's present towards the top, so sayeth my nose. There's an artificial, though pleasant and low key sweetness to it. I typically prefer any sweetness to come from fruit, florals or a soft vanilla, but it works here. I believe I originally sampled this fragrance because of mimosa, which is funny because I don't smell it at all. Also lost on me are the dried fruit, rose, flax and cedar. I'm sure it's the presentation of the powder, but this feels like a new mom fragrance to me, modest, safe, steady, sweetish, and amped up powder. It's adorable! Maybe I should suggest Pure Mommy as the next name :)

First off I'm a masculine male who went to Barneys NYC to purchase Chergui by Serge Lutens for the up and coming fall and winter months. Excellent frag in it's own right by the way! While waiting for the wrap up the salesman asked me to sample this other fragrance, but he didn't tell me the name he just sprayed on my hand.. W.O.W !!!!!!! The scent was intoxicating I thought, but I had to play it cool.. I told him I would see how the dry down went, and if I liked it I would be back soon to purchase.. I came back anxiously the VERY NEXT DAY!!!! I could not stop smelling the spritz point after I left the store.. Heavenly scent!! Smells like vanilla And almond cotton candy with a touch of musk that prevents it from being too sweet or too feminine "I REPEAT DOES NOT SMELL FEMININE!!!". Surprisingly it also smells very clean as well.. Equally as surprised that this isn't listed as a unisex blend.. I also realize why he didn't initially tell me the name, "Pure Eve" would not have been something I would have voluntarily sampled had I known the name beforehand.. Immensely glad I did however.. This juice is amazing I give it 20 on the scale of 1 to 10.. Ladies try this on your men trust me both of you will thank Mighty Lion and the Barneys sales rep who graced me...Top shelf parfume a must smell...

This is an ode to the White Rose. So well blended, the sweet notes and almond round it out perfectly, bringing out the essence of white roses. This is what angels smell like. I love this, I wish this projected more and lasted longer, but I understand that this needs to be felt only as a gentle whisper. Pure and gentle, this will go fast. Lovely for summer. I can imagine this being worn in winter too. So pleased that I picked this up purely by chance. Very lady like, definitely signature material. The musk, white rose and cedar makes it smell very much like Narciso. I couldn't tell you which I preferred though as Narciso projects a heck of a lot better. This needs applying practically every hour. It's gone in virtually 30 seconds. It's more like a soft, white creamy skin scent than anything else. Reminds me of the smell of moisturiser or day cream. I am supremely irritated however, that this stuff is so soft, and a 50mL bottle costs over $200. I was fortunate enough to buy it for $40 through sheer providence, I love it so much that I crave it, but I have had it barely a month and used half of it already- I won't be able to buy it again as it is so expensive. Tragedy.

It's absolutely amazing! Got this (Pure virgin) last summer, and the vanilla/musk scent in this one is unlike anything else I've ever smelled. If I should try to depict how it smells, I would say it's like a combination of the classic La Prairie perfumes, but with a touch of Byredo uniqueness. It lasts really long, and I still have over half a bottle left still after much use (you only need one spray). The bottle is really lux, and I've never met anyone with the same perfume, so this is really limited, which I like. I really hate smelling like everyone else. If you spray this on right after you've showered, it smells like the Clean perfumes at first (fresh smell), but when it settles, the vanilla and musk perfection comes out. I can also recommend Guerlain Shalimar Initial (even though it is not a limited perfume, I rarely come across anyone who has it). I use Pure virgin for daytime, and Shalimar for night, since it is more spicy and oriental.

I had always been mesmerised by the Carnation flower. My mother grew them in the garden for as long as I can remember and along with the rose, this is easily my favourite flower. The spice and aroma of the carnation is just the right amount of floral for me. I couldn't see myself wearing it, but I wouldn't hesitate to douse the other half in this. The opening starts soft and gets louder as this scent progresses. I only tried a little from my sample and it lasted the whole day on my skin. All I can say is that it's a Carnation explosion! Reminds me a bit of Cartier's Baiser Vole, which is equally a carnation-infused scent. If carnations are your thing, then you are going to love this scent. Surprisingly, the note is not listed, so it could be creating that effect with cloves and other similar spices, but none the less, a fantastic scent!

I THINK THIS IS MY FAVORITE PERFUME EVER!! 🤍 Pure Eve is a sensory journey, it blends the freshness of crisp aldehydes and a bouquet of soft dreamlike florals that transcend the typical sweetness associated with almond based scents. Instead of gourmand, it feels intensely atmospheric, hazy, and otherworldly, it’s too airy/ethereal to be confined to sweetness alone. Imagine awakening from dream in untouched wilderness, an endless green field beneath a boundless sky, and in the distance you can see a billowing cloud so large it looks holy. That’s the essence of this perfume. It smells like a woman with a divine connection to nature or a girl who can secretly fly. I’ve never smelled anything similar. Smells like: Lying in Inner Mongolian grasslands Ichiko Aoba’s “Windswept Adan” The closing credits of All About Lily Chou Chou

Oh...it smells so delicate and beautiful. That's exactly what I would expect Etro Heliotrope to smell like, but that was not the case. Here, the almonds are slightly sweetish and fluffy. Although vanilla is not listed, I can feel the gourmet character of this essence. I don't feel the aldehydes and the flowers listed in the first place, maybe just the tender musk veil. However, after about 10 - 15 minutes after application, I can feel the floral aura of this fragrance, I guess the mimosa takes the stage. It's really a great scent, it makes me curious about other perfumes from The Different Company. Edit: The performance on skin is great, too ... ~ 6 h. Big love ❤️

I LOVE THIS!! Its so "neutral" to my nose but in the best way. Its hard for me to describe notes, so I'll just explain what I can - It is sweet, but not too sweet, and powdery, but not too powdery. It feels like fresh air on a mid-70s, low humidity, sunny day. It is clean, light, close to the skin. It really make me feel happy and it just makes me smell good and feel good. I also have been trying to find a perfume that meshes well with the scent of L'occitanes almond body cream, and this is the one. This is it. It works perfectly with it and the almond note peeks through perfectly.

The closest thing I have to a signature scent. This reminds me of being a little girl and getting a bath at my grandma's house. She always used lotion and body power on me afterward that smelled so good, cozy, and clean but not overpowering at all. This feels familiar and comfortable. It's what I wanted something like Glossier You to smell like on me. I wear this for virtually any occasion or season. I can smell it for hours on my clothes and often get "you smell good" compliments when I wear it. I've tried dupes (like Kenzo Amour) but none compare. One of a kind in my world.

This is magnificent,magical and dreamy parfum... fascinating for its seemingly contrasting notes, such as the initial aldehyde note that gives the perfume a blurry air,clear and soft as the soft snow in the winter. It evokes in me strong emotions linked to something I do not remember but that makes me feel good. This is complex and sophisticated, it wraps you like a cloud and drags you with it with its wake... this for me is a masterpiece, my favorite perfume The Different Company. Sentimental..I love it ❤ Sillage: 7.5/10 Longevity: 8./10 Scent: 10./10 Overall: 10./10

love this fragrance its very delicious scent. Almond dominate this fragrance. Very sweet almost like dessert candy added creaminest almonds. Performance is great. Overspraying can sometimes too cloying. 2 spray can last me 8 hours. Great for cool weather. UPDATE: 7/20/2017 Been wearing this on night spring summer works wonder but not good on hot day can get very cloying. This thing last and last on my skin. I don't know maybe almond love my skin for some reason. I also let a female friend try this and she loves it. Very sweet scent.

this is an incredibly fragrance. truthful from the first time you spray it and special 'cause it makes me feel perfect when i wear it. very very unique, classy and comfortable. sadly i had to adbandon it just because of its sillage and longevity. after 15 mins i could not smell it anymore and also people around don't detect it. it's not unexpencive and bought it twice hoping it was my nose, but i had to give up at the end. hope they will improve its formula one day with stronger persistence and sillage ;,( such a shame

It's simple - who likes Tardes CB will like Pure Eve as well. This TDC is soft, elegant, feminine. Almonds here are not too sweet, but not bitter either. Are simply perfectly balanced. I try to avoid aldehydes normally, but here the pinch of them gives the musk lighter, more spacious character. All in all Pure Eve is easy to wear, office friendly scent. No ground-breaking experience maybe, but definitely beautiful.

A very nice everyday perfume. Nice white flowers coupled with a beautiful almond, oscillating between milky and bitter, very balanced, with also this little calisson aspect (maybe the dried/candied fruits side, in the background) + mimosa on my side. It is much less sweet than advertised, and the dry down really has that something that comforts me in any situation. Very nicely balanced. Beauty.

Sugary almonds like an almond delight dessert. Pure sweetness in a bottle! The almonds are natural smelling and covered with powdered sugar. I can also detect heliotrope and the perfume is linear after 20 minutes, which I love since I love this scent. It has great longevity and moderate projection. Definitely a must have in an almond lover's collection.

One of my absolute favorite fragrances of all time, a sheer vanilla, candied almond, and musk. The almond doesn't stick out as almond to me, its really more of a sweet vanilla coating on an almond that comes through. This is a transparent musk that sits close to the skin. It smells like comfort and safety. It smells like a mom.

A very beautiful powdery/musky/sweet perfume with the same DNA as Teint de Neige from Lorenzo Villerosi but Pure Eve is softer, cozier and an easy wear with moderate projection and sillage. The drydown is slightly sweet/woody and is very beautiful. However this is not a gourmand at all.

Soft, sweet and fluffy scent with gourmand, creamy and powdery almond. It smells like nice thick whipped cream with some meringue and almond chips. Sexy but also tender and dreamy at the same time. I think it’s kinda girly, but in a good way. Follow me on IG: scent.guide

This is a warm, cosy, musky floral. Lovely for those evenings in winter with great comfort appeal it wraps you in a soft powdery floral confection. Soft and sweet in an understated way and easy to wear 8/10 silage and a couple of hours tops for longevity.

Reminds me so much of Close by Gap, give that a try if you're on a budget and are looking for a similar musky clean almond vanilla scent. It's saltier and not as soapy but has a very similar feel.

Just Bought it,my first from TDC I adore that, but the name is "Pure Virgin". is that the same? also on box written: "for her or for him".... no matter what the name is, notes are so luxe.

I adore this clean, fluffy almond. Great for layering or alone. Vaguely similar to L’Occitane’s Almond Supple Skin Oil.

If you want to know how this perfume smells, search for Hipp baby shower gel. It is very, very similar to it.

Very much like Kenzo Amour, but with clean aldehydes. It makes this one feel slightly more grown up.

What a sharp opening! But wow,I love it so much after 5 mins,sweet,almondy,creamy,love love love ❤️

soo much like l'eau d'hiver, it's just deliciously powdery and honeyed and so comforting

If cotton had a scent it would smell like pure eve.

smells like a light version of NÈH?! Zeromolecole

I always like a good almond scent, and this one is very good! It's my second experience with The Different Company and I have to say I'm impressed so far - they seem to specialize in delicate, well-balanced scents that are as interesting as they are wearable, just very well-made. It's a non-gourmand kind of almond scent: sweet but a little bitter as well, and with enough focus on the other notes to keep it from going into edible territory. It starts out rather green - or at least green-floral, since there don't seem to be any actual green notes in the note pyramid, but that's how it always strikes me, and I'm not complaining! And then later on, as the scent settles down and becomes sweeter, the musk becomes more dominant as well and takes over the role of contrast provider. All in all it's very nice indeed - I do like my marzipan scents, but there's more to the almond note than that, and this is a great example of that. There are some things that keep me from wanting more now that my sample is gone, though. Longevity and especially projection could have been a lot better - although that could be (partly) due to my sample's lack of a sprayer. Then there's the fact that I'm not exactly head over heels in love with Pure eVe, even though I like it very much, and I already have some almond scents in my collection that I prefer. And last but not least there's the price: there's a lot of nice things that can be said about The Different Company, but "affordable" isn't one of them. So I think this one will have to go on my "maybe get a decant if one shows up at a good price" list...

Slightly powdery, nutty, woody musc. Imagine Joop! Le Bain from 1989, but more refined and polished, which warrants the 10x price, I guess. I like Joop a lot and I immediately liked Pure Eve that is more than 20 years younger, but still does not bring any new ideas to the table. That is a shame, because the brand was all about bright new unique ideas that other brands would never implement being scared of the revolutuonary aspect of uniquness of those ideas. Well, I am not impressed yet by anything I've tried and there is some trouble with longevity. The good thing is that the brand now offeres "travel lab" sets of 12 scents of 10ml each. That gives a great opportunity to test and compare, at home prefferably because the packaging is hideous and being a snob that I am I would not have put any of those in my handbag.

I seriously have no idea why I picked this fragrance out on Luckyscent; I think I made a mistake and meant to get another, but turn me upside down and paint me blue, I actually like this LOL. Normally, almond-centered fragrances come across smelling like stale play-doh or expired amaretto, but this little beauty here took me aback. This smells as if I'm working as an apprentice in a beautiful patisserie in Paris and, not wanting to appear like a gauche American before the ever-fashionable Parisian master patissiers, I've spritzed on a little of my precious Champs-Elysees Extract and my scent has merged with the delicious desserts on display. Wow, the more this dries down, the more stunning it becomes! If only all blind buy mistakes could be as fortuitous as this! :)

Bad blind buy. The scent does not evoke purity, innocence or anything delicate in me at all. No lotion, no aldehydes... It's a sweet slap with gourmet almonds, which is accompanied by something that reminds me very much of CK Euphoria, which I hate from the bottom of my heart.. Sorry, but definitely not for me.. Update on november/22. OMG after decades i found my signature scent! I don't know why, but the fragrance started to smell completely different to me after a very short time since my first review. It is a wonderful scent of comfort and tenderness. It calms me down incredibly and sometimes you have an addictive need to feel it. It had never happened to me before. I am speechless. I just love this fragrance....

Opening notes; I get baby powder, vanilla and sugared almonds. Then I smell fresh pastries right out of the oven. If you're into gourmand scents it's a safe bet you'd like it. I have another perfume by TDC, and both are impressive because it's evident that the ingredients are quality. This stays linear after the first 30 minutes: the scent does not change, but since I like it I'm happy. Projection is low, but this has longevity. It lasts about 4 -5 hours then turns into a skin scent for several hours more. I'm looking forward to sampling more from this house. So far I'm really impressed.

This a very feminine soft powdery fragrance, on me it smells like mimosa with flex and almonds. I barely get any Musc but do get a candy like sweetness. It’s pretty but if you overspray it could get cloying and plasticky. There is no aldehydes, at least I don’t smell them here, and it’s a good thing cause I hate the aldehydic note. I mix it with vanilla fragrance like Serge Lutens un boise vanille and it’s gorgeous together and cozy even for winter (: overall I really like the Fragrance. Oh and The dried fruits are barely noticeable too, they are somewhere very far.

I love & adore this scent! it is a favorite of mine. It is unlike anything else very unique. Its sort of candy fruit but i think thats the mimosa & callison, sweet, powdery maybe its a little light musk, its not a straight up floral either so its weird in a good way. I just want to sniff myself all day!!! for lovers of unusual sweet, off the beaten path, but safe perfume. Update: I just got a sample of Cartiers le baiser du Dragon, and this smells almost identicle!

This is realy special one Good , . IMO . Starts of fresh and clean . Im not very good at detecting Musk , so i dident recognise it . It almost smells like almonds or marshipan in the begining, i guess it is the Flax also . and the rose keeps it interasting and a little hint of warmth in all its coolnes:) , This is realy clean , fresh . and almost like a cool drink . Not to sweet , just fresh and interesting. like it . Last about averige i would say

Oh this is very similar to Kenzo Amour. I find it very interesting that the comperison keeps getting down voted. And I actually prefer Kenzo Amour over Pure eve, there is something plasticy in Pure Eve that bothers me. Plus the price point. No need to have both. This is definitely very feminine. I would have a lot of question to my man if he came home smelling like that..lol...

I get a rice pudding vibe in the opening of Pure eVe. Then the musk floats in with a note that reminds me of old-fashioned yellow Jergens lotion. Sometimes I can detect almond and baby powder but mostly this scent is abstract. Something about it reminds me of warm, moist air and dry fluffy towels. It is pleasant in the way shampoo can be pleasant.

This is almost identical to Kenzo Amour... I’m really surprised to not see more comparisons. Kenzo has a more pudding-like quality with some spicier undertones while this is slightly sweeter and muskier. I love both, but they are so similar that I’d prefer to buy Amour simply because of the huge price difference.

This is a fluffy, soft vanilla scent for people who otherwise dislike sweet and gourmand-y scents. It's not heavy or cloying, just a bit powdery, and not too strong. I'm seriously considering buying this as my cold weather fragrance despite the higher price tag.

This is a very soft laundry/vanilla/baby powder smell that isn't sickly. It doesn't last very long on me but it's a good option when I want a simple comforting smell for a bit. Smells like the nicest of your friend's mothers when you were a child.

Clean powdery musk, dry laundry mimosa, nutty flax, and dusty almond. It's not as smooth as a cashmere blanket but is comforting and quite skin-like. Less almondy than how it's upvoted. I wouldn't pay that much for this type of scent.

pure eve = pure virgin. it's the same fragrance. just changed name. virgin to eve. so i just buy a virgin that left only one in my country... even that high price. also, it's 50ml, so It's not refilable... i was crazy...

At first it seems to be quite unusual, possibly due to aldehydes, but after a while it develops into a charming, soft sweet almond scent. Pleasant and smooth. To sum up in one word: lovely!

Sweet, lightly floral, very feminine powdery musk scent in the style of Loves Baby Soft, but perhaps a more adult version.

Open up the little plastic bottles of ShurFine vanilla & almond extracts that have been sitting in the pantry since the Obama administration. Put the caps in your pocket. Then go to nana's nursing home and sit next to a floral arrangement and stare at a Thomas Kinkade cottage garden print for a few hours. This is the perfect scent for that.

I get baby powder first, then vanilla then floral. After 1 hr on my skin it’s mostly a powdery floral. I have some almond frags likes VC&A Bois D’Amande and I get much more nuttiness from other frags.
