Paris Pont des Amours

I remember this one. I had a sample and loved it as all YSL Paris springtime editions and maybe more. Old good Paris was one of my first fragrances, very romantic and also very strong, but now I have grown to more subtle tastes somehow. For a few years I bought a bottle of springtime editions, because they looked all very similar, but Roses Enchantees and Pont des Amours were the best ones for me. I didn't care much for Bourgeons, too many acidic berries in it. So I need to say that I don't like LE!!

Sweet sweet sweet and rose rose rose. If you don't like roses then this is definitely not for you! I normally like fragrances with punch or spice but totally fell for the overt femininity of this limited edition version of Paris. It is that powdery, jammy, sugary type rose that could never be mistaken for anything else. I bought it unsniffed and just love it. Definitely a good spring fragrance and the bottle and packaging is simply gorgeous.

I bought this perfume at an outlet store and love it. It's a bit different from the original paris, but not many people would know. i find this definitely spicier than Paris. Instead of the bergamot, Pont des amours has that carnation, which I love. In my opinion, if you like roses, then Pont des Amours and any versions of Paris will make you happy.

Choosing a perfume that suits you is not easy. Thank god, finally, I found the right perfume for me. Yes, it is YSL Paris Pont des Amours. I’m sooooo in love with this perfume. It has everything that I need in a perfume - soft, light, romantic and feminine - I just love it! If you love the smell of rose then this is the perfume for you.

Love from the first sniff. Very classy, very european, romantic and lovely. Roses, roses, lot of roses - with much tenderness and sencualities. True French "love poem" of fragrances.

This is a favourite, joyful and romanticroses and that lovely hint of orange blossom.

For me, I am now convinced this fragrance is much more suitable for the outdoors. The perfume fills the room, as though everyone in the room is surrounded by a fragrant garden of delightful flowers; whether they want to be or not. I wear this scent sometimes and mostly for myself...because of that very reason. I'm surprised, for an EDT, how long it lasts, though I shouldn't be, it is a YSL beauty 💗 Personally, I find it starts to soften after 45 minutes indoors...in particular the roses and carnations linger much, much longer.

Gentle like a lady walking through a garden of roses. Roses and dusting powder, thats what I smell, very nice and soft. After wearing it again, I noticed the orange blossom, very nice!

Paris Pont des Amours is a lovely flanker from the house of YSL. It is the epitome of Spring in a bottle. It also reminds me of luxury, rose-scented soaps found in period-style hotels. I tested Paris Pont des Amours on a cold Winter's night, and only seconds after applying it was obvious that I was using it during the wrong season. Save this fragrance for a warm, sunny day. I had to sit myself in a well-heated room to experience its full potential. It has a lot of the original YSL Paris charm, however the rose accord has been toned down considerably, freshened up with a soft orange blossom note and enriched with an ultra-feminine carnation accord. The overall feel of this fragrance is dewy and fresh. The drydown provides some soapy qualities with a blend of white musk and sandalwood, which surprisingly holds for a long time on the skin. Paris Pont des Amours is one of the less talked of Paris flankers, but in my opinion, it's easily one of the best. Both the sillage and longevity are superb, not to mention the beautiful, baby pink bottle design. I would be half-inclined to say that even those that disliked the original, may find themselves drawn to Paris Pont des Amours, especially seeing that the rose note is less prominent in this composition. I recommend.

Paris is too TOO much for me, so I was happy to find this summer flanker on ebay for relatively cheap. I'm always a sucker for carnation. However, Pont des Amours is, as someone else pointed out, mostly rose. That's fine with me; I wanted a "mostly rose" fragrance that didn't smell powdery, jammy, cooked, or sickeningly sweet. Like the original, I get fresh rose, along with those pretty violets, right from the beginning. The jasmine is quite subdued (again, the way I like it) and the carnation is the merest hint of spice to this sweet summery pink rose. Drydown is very gentle and enjoyable. This doesn't last as long as Paris the original - but one can't really expect the springtime version, which is lighter by design, to have the same staying power. Delightful. Perfect for tea dresses, church, weddings... Pretty without being dumb as well. I expect this one will get quite a workout from me.

I am wearing this perfume right now as I bought it from ebay from reading all your comments and it made me very curious and had to buy it.It is now obsolete and you can't buy it in the shops. This perfume is slightly strong and has a strong sandalwood overtones with violet underlying it, more like smoky violet and is suitable for evening wear rather than daytime. It is utterly sultry and sexy. Would I wear it? Yes I would and I think it would go down well if you went out with a gorgeous Frenchman wearing a trench coat in the rain and we would eat in a smoky cellar playing cool jazz. Mmmmm! Makes me think of Paris in the Fifties. Bring it back!

This is a beautiful and romantic perfume. It has things which Paris has not got, but it is also missing things from Paris. Firstly, the roses are a bit sweeter and more feminine. Secondly, it lacks that strong punch which Paris has from the outset. To me it is a "version" of Paris, which, without a discerning eye (nose) is on even keel with Paris. But given the choice, I would still choose Paris - because it is longer-lasting and a classic that has stood the test of time. Wear Paris for several days and then wear Pont des Amours for several days - you will see which is the better-made perfume!

Fresh,sweet and sensual.My girlfriend has this,she has a craze for roses,she had the classic version of Paris and when it comes in market, she got it. when she wears it she smells like roses and I love her more;) Obviously this Paris Pont des Amours is a fragrance of romance,emotions, passion and desire.for me this is a fragrance of love,love this.

Quite disappointed with this flanker because of its sillage and lasting power. I can barely detect it on me. I think I am a better candidate for the original Paris EDP version. Maybe my nose is losing sensitivity from strong fragrance abuse? LOL But I'm sure it can be layered nicely with the original Paris.

all I can smell in this perfume is rose,rose and more roses!I think the older versions of this perfume and au printemps were more light and lovely.I can't call it disappointing but when it comes to Yves Saint laurent I expect something better.

This summer issue is very nice, fresh and soft sweet, a bit sweeter as the summer issues befor, smelled that right away at the first sniff. Love it. It is very fresh in summer and still is lovely to use at colder days.

Paris PONT des AMOUR is the P E R F E C T Scent for me! U N F O R T U N A TE LY it is out of stock since a long time now! The BEST FOR HOT MEDITERRANEAN WEATHER! Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS TO ITS C R E A T O R S!!!

Soft, spring-like, pleasant jasmine-rose floral. Kind of smells like clean floral scented bodywash. Nice 'n light. Safe, daytime scent.

Beware the listing for this perfume by notordinaryperfume on ebay is FAKE.

These Paris Springtime editions are always excellent.
