Former Signature Fragrance :)

Yes... there was almost a whole year in which I exclusively wore this fragrance. Very expensive back then. I got it from my parents for Christmas 2013 and didn't want anything else. 2014 I was in only Paris at the Place Vendome :) Sweet, floral, very feminine and very sensual... This was by far the most feminine fragrance I have ever worn. I'm known for my men's perfumes and that wasn't really me. But he really enchanted me. It is something very special in this fragrance. French but not too classic and not too ladylike, gourmandig but not too heavy and not too pudding. I emptied the bottle down to the last drop and have had a 100ml bottle in my online shopping cart for months now. Which only prevents me from buying... Do I want to bring 2014 back? Hmm...

When haute joaillerie uses diamonds with inclusions....

Flawless, flawless, exquisite, noble, magnificent, radiant, exclusive, luxurious... SO one imagines jewels of Boucheron.

That transfers itself then inevitably also to the products the French luxury jeweller still in the offer has, among other things also smells... This inevitable mindset then additionally solidifies after one has used/uses the Boucheron fragrance JAIPUR. Like the jewelry: Highest quality and a corresponding reputation.

With the fragrance Place Vendome was, to say it times on "jewelry", worked as follows:

Platinum? No, white gold will do (expensive)
Design? Noble, but not too grandiose (expensive)
Custom made? No, this time Pret-a-Joaillerie (still RIGHT expensive)
Diamonds? Flawless, as usual? NO, inclusions are ok, don't have to be pure-white either, and the carat count can be smaller (NOW it's just unjustifiably OVERPRICED!)

So is the fragrance unfortunately also become :-( The basic framework is right, only unfortunately was "saved" in the actual, the fragrance.... Very volatile sparkle, with visible inclusions and quality-reducing discoloration...

That goes better!

Place Partout

A long time ago in a perfumed galaxy distant to ours, those bottles which were beautiful enough and a bit more ambitious than your average Joe, were lucky winners. They (i.e. their contents) could while away the hours snuggling up to an attractive lady's bosom, probably somewhere between Place Vendôme and Rue de la Paix. They were neither called mainstream nor niche perfumes, they were just "parfums".
Today, most perfumes are anything but happy. In fact they are a miserable bunch. The root cause of their problems is of course the tin-pot notion that everyone should own several "modern" perfumes which means that the average perfume bottle (and its contents!) become suprisingly common. Upon smelling "Place Vendôme" I could spend hours bemoaning the loss of quality (and even lifestyle) this average scent is an example of - but this would be nearly as pointless as being unable to accept that flip-flops are not a suitable form of footwear for the office. Modern orange blossom-honey-jasmine-artificial-cedarwood-fragrances deserve our sympathy and should be hugged. I mean, it's our duty to feel sorry for them. Especially when they are called "Place Vendôme" and smell like "Place Partout" or "Passe Partout".

Springtime For A Young Woman

Such a light, delicate scent to wear. Reminiscent of flowing, long, gauzy dresses and wide, straw-brimmed hats, tall grasses, and beautiful trees with wide arms full of green leaves towering above me, blue skies with patches of white breezy clouds and the air is warm. This is a light perfect perfume for the spring weather.
The woods of cedar immediately burst through with roses and muted jasmine, while creamy pralines delicately mix with notes of honey. Vendome Boucheron seems classic in its projection, never overpowering, always ladylike, always subtle, ever gentle.
I could see this a a wedding day perfume for a very young woman because of its lack of sexuality or flirtatiousness. Its simple. Its clean. Its elegant with a hint of pepper peeking through, ever so powdery at its dry down. The benzoin lends its hand to a creamy vanilla finish that sits and intermixes well with the woods as this perfume ends its run.

Gorgeous, Almost Edible, and Extremely Feminine

Top Notes: Pink Pepper, Orange Blossom, Rose, Tangerine.

Heart Notes: Jasmine, Honey, Peony, Praline.

Base Notes: Benzoin, Cedar.

I love these notes, especially the orange blossom, honey, praline, benzoin, and cedar. This is a beautiful fragrance that is slightly gourmand and extremely feminine throughout its evolution from top notes to base notes. The only complaint I have concerns performance. It performs more like a body spray than an eau de parfum. It is light and almost ethereal but delicious. I use at least six sprays anytime I wear it. It has mild projection and sillage, and longevity is poor. I get approximately three hours wear out of it, but I adore it for those three hours. If these notes appeal to you, then I highly recommend it. Just do not expect great performance.

I do not think anyone would be offended by in an office setting, but it is a romantic type of fragrance, so one may wish to reserve it for after work. Given its lightness, I think it will work best in Spring and Summer. I think very cold weather would probably mute these notes, but I look forward to testing it in the cold weather this Winter. This is definitely a winner for Bucheron. If only it had greater projection, sillage, and longevity especially.

The bottle is pretty and quite heavy in one's hand. The presentation is quite good compared to many of its contemporaries.
