Paris Jardins Romantiques

Lovely! I loved almost all light versions of Paris and I missed then as LE :-( Jardins Romantiques is just as the name says: romantic and happy like a garden in full bloom! The rose is still very noticeable and focus of perfume. The other flowers are very complimentary and the basenotes are typical Paris with lovely soft sandalwood. It's an elegant, linear, coeherent scent just like classic Paris is. The bottle is a timeless classic. I felt very pretty when I wore this one. Not just pretty for prettyness' sake. It made me feel feminine, romantic, delicately sexy. Just one side of my complex personality, the one I like to show more often. Lasting power is good for a light EdT and sillage is also noticeable. It fades gradually on skin.

28. January 2024 Finally im reunited with this treasure! I used to have it, when it was released and back then it was quute inexpensive to purchase. Loved it then. Recently bought a full bottle for very reasonable price and it s.ells like i remember it to be. As many below mentioned this is one of the best if not THE best Paris flanker, especially for those, who find regular Paris too cloying or unbearable. This flanker is fresh and feels like a breath of the fredh air in the garden in the spring. Still very recognizabld as Paris, but with its own character due to its freshness. All other flankers are more rose-violete centered, this one is grass-lilac-rose centered. Simply amazing!

The very best of all the original YSL Paris flankers, in my opinion anyway. I bought this one when it came out in 2007 and still find it delightful 12 years later. It's almost like wild flowers, light and airy in a good way, and on me anyway it lasts at least 6 hours. It doesn't beat original Paris though. And I bought several of the earlier Paris flankers: premiere roses, vergers, printemps. Around 2010 I bought mini-bottles of all the ones I didn't have and have since then lost my scoresheet of what was in each bottle. None of them are as good as Jardins Romantique though. And happily it's still around online.

The best of the Paris flankers and even better than the original. Lovely cheerful spring scent with rose -lilac-Lilly dominance. Grass and orange made it fresher and avoided the soapy vibe the mother scent has during dry down. I miss it very much...

My favourite perfume of all time. A long lasting and lovely fragrance. Beautiful and ''romantic'' indeed :)
