Mandarine de Noel

Thanks for adding it ! I love this citrus smell so much ! It's very tangy and refreshing . I'm almost sure the exact same scent has already been launched (by Yves Rocher too) under the name of "Mandarine" in a special limited 30ml edition at the end oh the 90's . And i have agood reason to remember this smell because that's what i was wearing at my first rendez-vous with the guy who today is my better half :-) Back to the scent itself : It has the problem that most of the "Les Plaisirs Nature" scents have ; the so weak lasting power . It is so frustrating that i now just use this one as an "after shower body spray" to feel even fresher before going to bed , the smell won't prevent from sleeping. Wonderful smell still.

I had this one in the late 90s and loved it. It was a very intense tangerine scent. It was only weak and sillage wasn't too great, but I kept spraying it so it didn't matter to me. I'd love to have it again, but it's no longer available.

This wasn't my favourite christmas scent of YR. But I'm not a citrus lover anyway. But I expected at least something more christmas like.

The idea was not bad - zesty mandarines with a touch of cinammon, this could work for bringing Xmas mood to someone who sometimes struggles to pick up the holiday vibe ( don't you know this awful feeling, when your calendar is moving into the "red day" zone already and it just doesn't feel like xmas at all? . Well, it could have been a quick Xmas denial remedy, BUT this has NO staying power at all. 5 mins at the most, so there's no point to discuss this one any further, because after those 5 mins there's no subject at all left for this review: skin, like it was before, smelling exactly the same as before the application.

One of the few perfumes I actually threw in the bin. Smells like urine mixed with rotten tangerine. My bottle could have gotten off due to its age, but it smelled dreadful anyway. Still looking for a tangerine scent.

Try Avra by Korres. Fresh, sweet tangerine with soft neroli, perfect for summer, natural ingredients ( a hallmark of Korres products), longevity 6 to 8 hours on me, sillage subtle.
