Soap Opera
The most heavenly mix of greenery, soapy creamy florals and a base of oakmoss and raspberry, smoothed out with vanilla and incense. This stuff is just oxygen to me. Inhale, exhale mmmmm!

An elegant, green, soapy masterpiece
Ivoire is a "problematic" scent for me. It's elegant, green, highly recognizable and a true masterpiece - and yet - I cannot warm up to it.
Years ago, I bought a bottle of it, gave it away, then regretted the "loss", bought another bottle and swapped it for "Jolie Madame" after 4 weeks.
I always enjoy Ivoire and its powerful green notes on other people, but I can't wear it myself. The scent turns soapy, harsh and uninviting on my skin. Nevertheless, a great classic and a must-try!

If you like soapy scents this is simply amongst the best choices out there. Clean, soft creamy floral chypre with a green woody drydown.
