Sadly a little generic for me
Cartier Baiser Vole, was a newly released fragrance I was quite looking forward to trying. Lily is a beautiful note when blended skilfully, so I had very high hopes for this one.

After I had applied Baiser Vole to my wrist, I found it did not remind me of fresh lilies at all, but of another popular fragrance which I had worn once or twice. It took me a good hour or so to figure it out. I kept smelling citrus and a faint play-doh accord, and then it hit me. Baiser Vole's top notes smelt like Daisy EDT by Marc Jacobs.

There were obvious similarities, however only in the initial stages was it particularly Daisy like. The heart was much smoother and introduced an element of powderiness. The lily accord in Baiser Vole prefers a muskier and soapier finish, rather than the green freshness it is known for.

It's quite a polite type of fragrance, tending to come and go in terms of projection on the skin. I'm not really thrilled with this fragrance, in fact I wanted to experience so much more. The musky and citrusy notes kind of spoilt the lily in my opinion and damaged it beyond repair.

Baiser Vole is a great choice for all seasons. In some ways it would make an excellent staple scent as it seems to find that middle ground in terms of preferences. There are many classic Cartier fragrances that I really enjoy, like Panthere, Must de Cartier and Le Baiser du Dragon. Unfortunately, Baiser Vole didn't have that same strong character that previous Cartier scents have had.

The longevity was not too bad on my skin, however I do wish the sillage had more 'oomph'. I do believe I'll be passing this sample on.

Sticky Lily
I reviewed Cartier BAISER VOLE eau de toilette a while back and found it to be a vegetal green scent similar to the milk which drips inside the green stems of some plants. It initially reminded me more of violet leaf, but eventually I came to believe that it might be the scent of the inside of the stem of a lily plant.

BAISER VOLE eau de parfum, in contrast, has very little greenishness or inner stem milk quality to it at all. To me this seems like a very different perfume. The lily petals have been suspended in a sticky, somewhat sweet base like the one used for the Yves Rocher Secret d'Essence series. In fact, this might have been the lily entry in that line-up...

When I first donned BAISER VOLE eau de parfum, I was convinced that I smelled magnolia in this composition. Only lily is listed in the note hierarchy, but the floral scent seems so much like a cross between magnolia and lily to me that I even reached for my Elizabeth W magnolia candle to compare the two. It may be that the sticky base is creating the illusion of magnolia here.

Unfortunately, despite my fondness for both lily and magnolia, this creation does not really sit well with my nose. I'm pretty sure that the base is the culprit here, making the perfume smell slightly off-kilter and a bit uncomfortable. I suspect that the concept was to make a seductive, slightly dirty, but still mass-marketably sweet lily perfume. It actually smells a bit obscene, but in an embarrassing, not an appealing way. Not for me.

Melancholic White Lily
An artfully balanced harmony of lily, topped with a sparkling green aureole of leaves. Don't underestimate it, because it is a "soliflor". It is clean and clear in the beginning, but it has a darker, quite melancholic side to it, too. Wear it on a summer day, but put it away at night, it will not perform any "seduction miracles" for you, since it's too "gloomy". It emanates the beauty of the white lily, reminding me of white lilies in a stylish vase on a tombstone. In another review I once wrote that it's "old-fashioned in a good way". Smelling it again today, I still think it's elegant, but I personally don't wear it because of the graveyard-connotations.

~ Spring in a Bottle Baiser Vole ~
~ This hands down is my favorite non~Chanel floral for ladies! This is spring in a bottle with everything new and clean wrapped in a pleasant aura of Lilies. This scent can be anything a woman would want it be a very versatile fresh people pleaser! If you enjoy natural white florals this combination of lily, faint vanilla (and I detect carnation?) sillage will give off the perfect blend of classic and modern image your after. This evokes in me a brides perfect elegant wedding day in May....a lovely memory she can reach for everyday all found in this classy Cartier bottle. ~
Kind Regards,
Platinum1

The experience of a bouquet of lilies- fresh, light greenness from trimming the stem, an airy, persistent, but not quite powdery lily note.

Theme of the lily well realised: green without excessive bitterness, powdery without soapiness, floral without being indolic.
