Divine Issime

This one was a grower on me. After a phase of buying big ticket masterpieces like Guerlain, I became voracious for getting bang for my buck instead (and the more the merrier) Found this by trawling through Amazon cheapie perfume search (though it has doubled in price since I last had it). Funny, I get licorice with this perfume with something else but not sure what. It reminds me of two other licorice perfumes Yohji Homme and Just Jack's Fanta Fab. I like these types of perfumes that have an air of mystery about them. They are often not well know or often worn so it really stands out from the crowd of typical fruit-choulis that are everywhere all the time. Edit: just received a new bottle (Jan 26) and now I can recognise its similarities to Cacharel's LouLou. Quite intense and heavy on initial spray. Dries down to a gorgeously gourmand sugar dusted vanilla cake fragrance until finally it becomes the unmistakable aroma of Vimto! (Which is grape, blackcurrant, raspberry and black carrot) Perfect deceptively complex fragrance for Autumn/Winter that effortlessly punches above its weight.

Surprinsigly good for its price. A creamy, almost gourmand white floral in the same vein as Terracotta by Guerlain. I enjoy wearing it in the summer heat because, although somewhat sweet, it doesn't feel cloying at all. The perfume is not your typical drugstore synthetic-sweet concoction, but a classy, almost luxury-quality smelling scent. Longevity and Sillage are on the discreet side, though.

l was very surprised when I tried it...so rich oriental notes from a cheap one !!! It was very cheap l found it for 7 euro from the shop...and l grab it . from the first spray it was too strong white flowers and oriental vanilla with a great sillage it was fiiling a room!!! From the first spray the first thing comes to my mind was Roberto Cavalli eau de parfum l already have it. this is a good cheap replacement for the people who loves creamy white flowers and oriental vanilla . This perfume has a strong opening with Tonka bean and oriental vanilla and first was difficult to me to understand what white flower was...l hate very very strong tuberose but in this case is well blended with the other notes and after first minutes becomes very creamy ...in my skin Roberto cavalli smell in the same way. The difference between is orange bloosom in Cavalli and the tuberose here...but l think Tonka bean and oriental vanilla are so dominant in both to make them seems similar ...and both are spicy ( not mentioned here ...but is spicy) and creamy dry down in both of them . This one is long lasting too for a couple of hours and noticeable from the others around . Good choice for evening especially for young girls who like Cavalli and l think is in same vibe of Elie Saab too...

It's a beautiful sweety-earthy scent! I can smell a tuberose, vanilla, tonka beans and patchouli. It's very similar to Roberto Cavalli. And the quality is very high. Longevity and sillage is very good, I can smell it almost all day long. The bottle is gorgeous, like a real bag with a handle. I really like this style. Good work of Ulric De Varens!

This might be my favorite perfume scent. After a while, you can still notice it when you bring your nose close to the spot where you applied it, but it becomes harder to smell if you don’t get close. Maybe it’s because I don’t spray much, I’m not sure. Still, I absolutely love the scent.
