Many know this scent, some think they know it, and others judge far too quickly about this "CULT" Caron.
I am not a fan of negative reviews; if a scent doesn't please you, there are many ways to get rid of it!
But one could also question whether one is not yet ready to be on the same level with this fragrance.
(In the sense that maybe it suits you months or years later!)
My Prada Amber Pour Homme sat in the back of my closet for years because it was too powdery and sweet for me, but today I love it!
Patience can pay off.
Sorry for the long introduction, but it simply bothers me when I feel like I'm reading critiques from people who have only smelled the scent on paper for 2 minutes and are pouring their wisdom over me!
I personally love this indescribably simple scent above all!
At first, you should give it some time to settle properly, allowing it to graciously give way to the lavender.
If you survive this phase, you receive a gift that may accompany you for a lifetime!
A silky soft fragrance that harmoniously holds lavender and vanilla (always) and, if your nose allows, you will find moss and woods (or even more) among the main players!
My closet houses a 200 ml bottle of this masterpiece!
All clear?
I love such hopelessly old-fashioned fragrances, especially when they are made like this one and withstand the test of time!
Or does anyone really believe that Paco Rabanne 1 Million will still be scratching anyone in 10 years?
Exactly!
Give yourself time, be patient; someday this Caron might suit you!
Yes, great interjection! I've had it on my skin for 10 minutes now, and I immediately noticed lavender with... a bit of vanilla and chocolate. Herbal, masculine, yet also something sweet. A very beautiful, delicate, natural scent.
A very nice comment that can definitely be applied to many classic (currently less "trendy") fragrances. Right now, I only have the aftershave, but I'm in love with this truly harmonious combination of lavender and natural vanilla. The EdT will follow - I'm sure of it!
I really like Pour un Homme as well. It's a truly great classic scent that I use quite often.
I personally don't like 1 Million, but I believe it will still "scratch" many people in 10 years...
"You could also question yourself whether you're not yet at a point where you can connect with this scent on the same level."; "(...) and if your synapses allow it, you'll find moss and woods (or even more) (...)". Hmm. I know you probably don't mean it this way, but just as feedback, please consider that some people might perceive these expressions as arrogant.

I don't want to step on anyone's toes!
