Matin Blanc

At first, I was very cautious and suspicious about this whole collection of then-new Yves Rocher perfumes when they became available. I picked a few bottles to start with, based on the most positive reviews from YouTubers and decided to share some with a friend of mine, knowing that she loves perfumes of all kinds. She immediately opened them and told me she loves them all, but I thought she was being polite by not telling me the truth. When I got a chance to sniff this one for the first time, I disliked it so much that I regretted giving it to a perfume lover without first trying it myself. At that time I already had the Neroli by Yves Rocher in my collection and couldn't understand why people loved it so much. I could smell nothing (was nose blind, I guess) and since then I have been avoiding perfumes with a neroli note. Time had passed. I finally decided to add the Matin Blanc perfume to my collection, just to make Eaux de Parfum collection complete. After trying this perfume again, to my surprise I found the scent to be very delicate and sophisticated. After using the Matin Blanc for some while and loving it more and more, I remembered about my Neroli perfume and pulled it out of the back of my perfume cabinet. I finally realized that it actually has a scent!, and a very nice one. I was no more nose blind, thanks to the Matin Blanc. Since then I am able to distinguish and appreciate and love the neroli note in perfumes. Now Matin Blanc is one of my most favourite perfume in this collection. I love it on it's own, and I love it as a base for layering with other perfumes. I have both the original flanker and the one in a new bottle. They smell identical to me. The new bottles are so much prettier!

My first YR perfume, and first from this collection. Blind purchase. The scent for me is sophisticated and different. Powdery, citurs, and floral. I was drawn by the neroli on its profile. For me this is a new kind of scent for my nose. Not so heavy and more on the feminine side. I must say it is a versatile scent as you can wore it day and night in any season.

Fresh of the freshest fresh... Tried on today and it’s just a lovely citrus garden. It is definitely a unisex scent, crisp and sharp. I don’t smell any flowers here and it’s good so.

I don't know how to explain it but this perfume is me.

I bought it for my mom when she became fascinated with this scent after initial sampling - she really likes citrus and green scents. But at first we were both a bit overwhelmed. Soon it turned out that the perfume had to wait a few months for a colder season. In winter it started to rock! This neroli note is just awesome here! The combo is very well-blended, round, it smells complex while the notes are not too numerous. Somebody did a great job while preparing this perfume. It's feminine but not sweet. Bitter, fresh, "green" floral with a hint of bergamot. Awesome!
